Whirly 01S

Given your criteria, any "no-regret" grinder capable of (dialing in) espresso does not come below 10K beyond which one can get the Timemore C5 ESP, Pro, MHW Bomber R3, Kingrinder K6 (all manual), and Timemore Whirly 01S (electric). This is as budget friendly as it can get in India and the need for "

Thank you! I'm also considering yung G5 (base) kasi baka magreklamo lang din ako sa manual grinding ng timemore if almost everyday rin ako gagawa ng coffee 😂 baka po may link rin kayo ng G5 mini..? 👉👈 Edit: To add, bet ko rin yung Timemore Whirly 01s pero too high na for me as a starting equipment

If not just doing "soup", the grind for the ORB is nearly as fine as espresso. So, I'd suggest going for an espresso capable hand grinder so that if you can dive into a more traditional espresso machine later, you'll already have what you need. You can probably find plenty of discussions for budget

This is why I sold my Encore. I replaced with a TIMEMORE Whirly 01S.

I love my Timemore Whirly 01S - looks sleak in the kitchen and it's portable, so I always take it with me when I travel

If you want to stay on the economy side, I've jumped from the Chestnut C3ESP Pro to the Whirly 01S. Figured that since it's almost the same burr system, I won't have much trouble adjusting. Works great so far, freed my hands while the coffee is getting ground to prepare the portafilter, the cup and
