40mm conical burrs, 40 grind steps. Built for daily home espresso — consistent, easy to dial in, repairable. The clearest sub-$200 recommendation for semi-automatic espresso users.
Filter-first · ~$36564mm flat burrs, single-dose workflow. Designed for filter coffee — pour-over clarity that conical grinders at this price can't match. Gen 2 fixes the static and retention issues of Gen 1.
