Thanks Tom! Very informative. I bought the same grinder and use it together with the Delonghi EC685. Hope I can improve my espresso following your video.

@@TomsCoffeeCorner Haven't had any issues with static. I've had it a couple of months.

I am wonder of pick up this grinder or a DF grinder. I use a Timemore c3 pro and love to hand grind but really have my eye on a budget Eletric grinder. Thanks Tom you rock!!!

Just for reference, after settling in, I find my ESP to be in the same ballpark of 5 seconds per click +/-. Good value grinders. I got mine as a place holder because I didn't want to spend a lot of money since I am moving at the end of the year and will have to buy again. Shot quality wise, it is not as good as my K6, at least to my palate. That said, I think a video comparing this to the internal grinder on Touch Impress you posted about would be great. Even a short, or just a mention. I've not had the opportunity to use a built-in grinder but from videos I have seen, these budget grinders look like they'd be a lateral move. But nobody seems to post shot time differences with built ins. As always, I enjoyed the video, thank you for sharing.

Thanks for sharing! I was torn between getting this first, or the ESP. Since I hadn't reviewed a Fellow product yet, I went with this one. It has some really cool features. Thanks though, for sharing your resolution on the ESP. I guess these grinders are quite similar in that regard, and probably in the cup. I also think these are going to be similar to a built in grinder like the Impress, but maybe a bit more refined, due to a newer burr design. Cheers!

I think I would prefer a high-resolution step grinder over stepless. On my Eureka, it's great being able to dial it, but I like to switch between dark roasts and lighter roasts, do pour overs etc. and It always takes 2-3 shots to get the grind setting back to perfect. I don't really grind directly into the portafilter, but would prefer to use my own dosing cup that fits the portafilter, I grind into the cup then put the portafilter over the top upside down then flip the whole thing over to get a mess-free and more distributed fill.

The problem is mainly besides the height, that the platform is too small to balance a portafilter. I can fit my little MiiCoffee scale with a bottomless PF underthere, but without funnel, so the grounds would not all make it in the PF. Also, the PF cannot balance on such a small surface area.

I know the Opus is meant to be a single dose machine but has the hopper holds 100g, I was hoping to keep the hopper full and just weigh out the grounds as they come out. I guess I could do that if I find a short dosing cup that can sit on the scale.

It's usable for that, yes. You can switch pretty well between espresso and pour over. That being said, I'd suggest the DF54 for this. It's more solid, and more intuitive to use.

Dear Tom! Thank you for the amazing review! :) I just bought the opus and have the same setup as yours in this video. Even the Normcore bottomless Portafilter. I noticed, that I have to grind at around the setting 3 to get 14g of coffee beans in under 30 seconds. The ratio 2:1, 28g in the cup. Am I doing something wrong? Or is it normal?

Great video Tom! But wasn't the Graef CM702 good for espresso... believe you said so some time ago, that one is like under €100 or around. The Fellow Opus looks like a great grinder, but is it really slower then the Wilfa Uniform?? That one is really slow what I have heard, but is also in the same price league as the Opus, at least in my country. Something I wish you would do in your grinder reviews would be to use the box called The Kruve, that can tell how fine the grind is, because I do believe that there are some hidden gems among espresso grinders. For me the Fellow Opus reminds me abit to the Breville/Sage Dose control pro. They don't look the same, but the way to dial in the grinder is the same, but the Dos control pro can take a portafilter! The thing for me is that I don't trust companies today, why well there are so many companies that makes there products in the same factory so for example you can pay a high price for one brand, but you can get the same product from a less known brand for a lower price so its really confusing for consumers and that is also why I don't believe that consumers need to pay €200 and up for a espresso grinder. But anyway it would be great if you would use The kruve, to measure how fine the cheap/expensive machines grindes? Keep up the good work! PS: Would you consider making a review of the Graef CM501EU, think it's around €80 at the moment on Amazon?

@TomsCoffeeCorner

11 ай бұрын

Perhaps I will get a Kruve sifter soon enough...could be fun to play with. In the end though, I don't think $200 is expensive for a grinder. When you subtract the costs to manufacture, package, ship, as well as retail, I feel like there's not a ton of margin left over. Not to mention, these companies have to stand by their machines and provide customer support, R&D, reclamation handling, etc. I have not reviewed the new Graef, because it gets poor reviews, and the CM702 already gets many positive reviews. By the way, I think you can tell which grinders are obviously made in the same factory...there are several manufacturers, who license China to build the same grinder, and just put a different brand name on it. See Solis and Eureka. Or Turin and MiiCoffee. Best! Tom

@@TomsCoffeeCorner Hi Tom! That would be great if you would get the Kruve sifter. Because then you could show us the viewers if the grinder do produce fine enough for espresso and it would be very interesting to use it on budget grinders that isn't obvious that they can or cannot do fine find for espresso! Well, for some €200 isn't much, but for other it is. I myself bought my De'Longhi Dedica slightly used for €40. And due to that I'm a newbie, I'm not prepared to cough up €200 when I haven't masterd to make a smooth cup of espresso and I don't believe that I have to buy a grinder for that amount of money. But I do agree with you in some terms about R&D and that companies has to stand by their products. But today world that doesn't really hold, because if I had a company in China. I could buy a couple of Fellow grinders and let my engineers dismantle the grinders go through them and then make something similar for a lower cost. But what I also mean is just take a look on Breville for example, you can buy the Sage dose control pro for around €200, but if you buy the same grinder but it's made by Gastroback it's a lower price, and the Breville group owns Gastroback, but also Solis. Breville I believe also owns Baratza, so at the moment it's just on Breville's good intentions not to make cheap versions of the Baratza's products. Another example is the new Gaggia MD 15, you pay one price if you want it with the Gaggia brand on the grinder, but you pay a cheaper price if you buy it as a Caso Barista Flavour grinder. If you take the espressomaschine Solis Barista Gran Gusto you have to pay one price, but if you buy it as a Gemilai CRM3005G, you pay another price. The same goes for some Sage espresso machines, you can find the same machine for a lower price but with the Gastroback brand on it. And for example the Wilfa Svart, you can find that grinder as a Sunbeam EM6910, Breville BCG450 or a Russian Kitfort grinder. So this is why I don't trust the majority of companies, many times you just pay for the brand and not the performance of the product. Another reason for what I mean, take the OXO burr grinder that was popular a couple of years ago, it still popular because it makes very consistent grind. But if you buy that grinder in the EU ( I found one on Amazon Italy) you have to cough up around €200, is this really worth it ? Because if you go to Amazon USA it cost just $100, so how should I as a consumer know if I bought something that does perform well or not or if it's really worth €200 or not? Of course there are exceptions like Ascaso, FrancisFrancis, Fellow and Eureka and some more, but they are exceptions! But this is why it also is so confusing for consumers. Like why should I buy a Audi, when I can get it for a lower price as a Skoda or a Seat? And it's because you pay for the brand and not the performance, if it was the performance then the Skoda would have been the expensive car due to the fact that Skoda's are more reliable than Audi's by statistics. And this is also why I believe that a grinder that can grind ultra fine for espresso doesn't have to cost €200. But I also when we are on the subject of grinders etc. I always liked your videos because you have showed us views how to mod for example the De'Longhi Dedica and that was great! But I have a request because you are a engineer, so I hope this will interest you. I have found a mod for the Wilfa Svart, that will if I'm understand it right will make it a stepless grinder that will make fine enough for espresso: coffeesnobs.com.au/forum/equipment/grinders/25551-breville-bcg450-modded-now-excellent-grinder It would be great if you could do a KZread video of how to mod the Wilfa Svart, they are quite cheap if you get a used one? 🙂
