Grinds a lot better, more uniform, and much faster compared to my ceramic burr Porlex, gives better tasting V60 brew. I did try use it for espresso machine as well and it worked pretty well too!
Cool thanks I want cheap grinder for my aeropress
Which porlex are you using?
This kicks the butt of any porlex or hario ceramic burr grinder. It's machined form a solid billet of alluminium, and the central shaft is seated in ball bearings. If you pick one up you'll see the alignment of parts is on a different level and there's no noticable play. Produces gread, consistent grounds for pourover/aeropress/plunger.
Thanks I was in the market for a cheap grinder subscription, I got sick of paying monthly for their premium services.
I've had one of these for 6mths, grinds approx 20g of coffee in 20-30 sec, very good grind consistency - I use for stovetop, you could use with lower end espresso machines. Has very nice build quality and looks great to boot.
Major step up from the entry level/cheapie hand grinders is terrific value at this price. You'd have to spend around double this to get any improvement.
I use one of these twice daily for my Aeropress brews at work. Excellent grinder. Highly recommend it
Love using this grinder. I've used this to replace my porlex tall (first gen) for the past few months or so now off Aliexpress.- use it predominately for v60 brews. highly recommended!
Although that little screw base at the bottom holder is a bit of an annoyance as it comes loose once in a while and rattles.. I'm tempted to loctite it and be done with it.
Don't know if I could improve at this price point before going to the next price bracket with stuff like the commadante/jx-pro/kinu
And like with anything in aliexpress, be prepared to wait for it to arrive. My c2 took about 6 weeks to get delivered…
Bought this grinder a little while back and it's still kicking strong. Been loving it! Definitely can recommend it.
Thanks everyone for feedback and OP - I have purchased - now to wait.
What is this "spend and save", how to get the additional US$3 off?
never mind, it gets automatically applied during check out
It appears when you go to pay at the end
Does anyone know if the White version has the grooves as well? Or is it smooth?
Bought the black version last night, like you I was unsure if the white was grooved or not (or, indeed, if it was aluminium, as it looked like it could be different material to the others)
Has anyone received their grinder yet? I've not bought from AliExpress before…
I have been notified Auspost has it expected delivery next 1-2 days
I got the same email, last Tuesday. Not sure if the 2-3 business days (in my case) referred to start of shipping it from China or not?
Mine arrived yesterday and am loving it so far thanks OP.
Mine arrived yesterday, looks good, need to buy digital scales, any suggestions?
Anyone good any feedback on this?
