I had no intention of looking at those variants to be honest. In fact, I originally ordered the 30 with a view to upgrade to the stepless adjustment assembly (https://www.baratza.com/shop/sette-270-270w-adjustment-assembly) at a later date, but figured it was just worth getting the 270 up front. (BTW, allowing customers to buy the entry level option and separately purchase the upgrades if possible is a great move IMO)
I just weigh and single dose my shots as the Sette is pretty good regarding grind retention like you say. I've got a single time setting programmed of 10 secs that I just stop once all the beans have passed through.
There will undoubtedly be an advantage to weighing the actual output as however low the retention might be, there will still be an amount retained. But yeah, didn't think that justified the additional costs for the W/Wi versions
If I'm never really making more than one or two coffees at a time, it doesn't really make sense to look for the 270W or 270Wi versions, does it
Can I use the standard 270 & just add the weight of beans that I want in the top, and not even worry about grind time?
