Is the step up from a £40-£60 basic burr grinder to any of the c.£150 machines recommended upthread worth it for my usage?
100%
The upgrade from a £40 Krups GVX231 to a Sage Dose Control has been a game changer.
The Dose Control grinds without creating nearly as many fines which has a huge impact on the quality of our french press and filter coffee. If I had known how much of a difference it would make I would not have bought the Krups in the first place.

As I only drink filter or press I tend to eyeball quantities based on the beans I'm using . I don't really feel the need for dose control. Is the step up from a £40-£60 basic burr grinder to any of the c.£150 machines recommended upthread worth it for my usage?
I'm leaning towards the Svart mainly because it's
a: a funny word
b: less money than the others
