The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

Does anyone have a good suggestion for a manual coffee grinder? I have heard folks discuss the Peugeot grinders, but I want to see about alternatives.

This is what I use: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B092MDTGGR

It's the first one I have ever owned so I can't say how it compares to others but it works fine for me.

I also have this same grinder and it's suited me well. However just like OP it's the only one I've ever used so I have no comparison.

I have the original C2, not the Max version. And, it too, has been excellent. It might leave a little to be desired for espresso, but for everything else it's great.

On a scale from one to 10 how easy is it to grip?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Easy to grip so I guess a 10. The body is knurled so it doesn't slip in you hand, the knob on the handle is large enough to grip easily, and the arm is long enough that it doesn't take a lot of force to turn.
