I am looking at stepping up my coffee game and getting a good process dialed before my first sprog arrives in June (I am assuming we will need coffee....quickly).
I have a Gaggia Classic with the OPV mod using a portafilter gauge I bought and things are looking good, except, my grind. I use the Hairo hand grinder and I have worked out that the perfect particle size is between two of the fixed settings and its bugging me. Also grinding is a pain and takes ages to make more than one dose.
So... can anyone recommend a good electric grinder with steps wide enough (or stepless) that can get me pulling good 27sec shots? I have a 150 budget. Thanks all
Edit: I have UTFS and the Rancillo Rocky and Gaggia look like good options, but, I know Gaggia have changeable reliability depending on the time of year and it would be good to get some first hand user accounts... if that makes sense. Thanks all
