Single dosing is fine as the retention is very low. However that does cut out the weighing part of the appeal. It is quite nice just pressing a button and knowing you'll get 18.0 grams dumped into your portfilter.
The Wi upgrade is really cheap and only takes about 20 mins. (Edit I might be confusing the 270 and the 270W)
Bainbridge-
Yup, the regular 270 doesn't have the weighing capability (to be honest, being able to set the grind time to 1/100th second, I'm sure it'd be relatively reliable). Though with the burr setup of the Sette, I'm hoping there's basically no retention. Maybe it's just something that's sticking with me for using a hand-grinder for so long!

Went for the standard 270, was going to go for the 30 originally with a view to upgrade to the stepless adjustment assembly from the 270. Turns out that would just make it a more expensive version of the 270 with more plastic bits...
It's currently sat in Ireland where I'm moving so won't be able to report back until Thursday, but should be good!
Is the grind retention as low as they say it is? Ideally I'd be just popping a shots worth of beans in at a time and grinding the whole lot.
