My new grinder arrived last night, one of these:
The difference compared to the kitchen aid I have had for years(this one) is day and night. I would go as far as saying that there was no point me owning the Giotto until I got the new grinder.
I love the look of the kitchen aid, and it seems solid and well made, but it does not grind evenly enough to give the rich gloopy extraction that you want, with golden crema right from the start of the extraction.
I went through about 150g of beans last night dialing it in, and felt a bit odd after my 4th or 5th cup!
