Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

There is a slider that closes off the hopper so that you can swap to another, perhaps with different beans. The sliders for grind size are entirely manual, so changing is a process.

    Overall this is a pretty good grinder but they do a lousy job of making it clear your cant grind right into a portafilter and dose by weight
