The coffee thread

[ThomasHJ]

I want to say: 100 bucks for a mere cofee grinder? But then I looked at VW's bill for my yearly maintenance/service that they just handed me and 100 bucks feels like 2 cts all of a sudden.

btw, anyone else waiting forever on the Oomph 2.0 coffee maker?

grinding my own coffee was probably the biggest step up in quality

Well, no. But if as above its *so* much better, it could be another ritual in the van away from the screen that improves the peaceful day... perhaps?

Big step up in quality over pre-ground. Definitely worth the extra piece of "stuff" in the van. I actually have one in the van and one at home..... Also the aergrind fits inside the aeropress aparrently (I've the feldgrind because aergrind wasn't available then).

I have a Hario grinder that lives in the Cali now. It doesn't fit inside the Aeropress but is a lot cheaper

Anyone have any experience of this hand grinder? Singletrack Magazine were selling it in their shop, and they stated it could be stored in the Aeropress.

100 bucks is a snip for a grinder - I’m about to plunge for the kinu m47 classic at £350

I have a similar one, different brand: Fitting inside the Aeropress is a big plus for cycle/motorbike camping but smaller burrs mean a lot more cranking the handle! Also, ceramic burrs are great for very fine grinds, but if you want to make the occasional french press or whatever, a steel set is more versatile.

In the van, I use this - it's been excellent. Picked up for 40eur but it's gone up a bit.
