I just watched one of his videos on appearance of modern espresso. He was talking quite a lot about old-school espresso we used to make 10-15 years ago and the darker roasted coffee we used compared to today's lighter roasts. Quite a lot of interesting points about the quantity of coffee we used to use, how that resulted in needing a darker roast and why that method now doesn't make a good espresso with a modern light roast.

The Porlex has a pentagonal bit, not a hex bit. Hence the need for an adapter. The Rhino by comparison, has a hex bit on top, so can be used without an adapter.

Got me excited!

lol worth the wait. Dumped out my cup of cold brew to try.
Though I am not doing a single stir with a teaspoon...

@ above posters. Have used a Commandante hand grinder when working in a cafe. Quite satisfying to use, but not especially fast. Have a Porlex mini which is generally used for picnics, much fiddlier and doesn't sound as nice but still decent. Attached a drill to it once and almost rounded off the hex shaft top, so don't try it without a special adaptor like linked earlier...
