Default Re: The Espresso Ledge

LMAO! A few things to consider and really check out is how much grind retention different commercial grinders have. I have seen people mention the Mahlkonig K30 Vario needs 10-15g purge to clear stale grounds from the chute and it can be more for some of the other big grinders. That being said I love the Baratza Vario and it's timer, once dialed in for weight I can just hit start and get the exact dose I want for a particular bean or blend and what goes in comes out with very little grind retention. I am waiting for the Mahlkonig prom espresso to come out and see what people think, the all purpose prom does not entice me with what many have said about it and at it's price it is a hop skip and jump to the k30.

So what grinder are you lusting after?

Here is the espresso machine I am looking to get soon http://www.chriscoffee.com/products/...presso/juniord
