I mostly do drip coffee (shh, I’m basic), but I’d like a more consistent, fresh brew, and potentially something that could do an espresso grind, as well.

I’ve seen good things about the Capresso Infinity Plus, but thought I’d ask about the personal preferences from more experienced folks here.

It’d be lovely to have something that can easily fit on the counter, and with a simple mechanism and/or reparability (even if that means looking for old stock of a certain model).

Thanks!

I really love my 1Zpresso K Pro. A few notes, though:

  • it’s manual, I know that’s a deal breaker for some, but I prefer manual grinders 🤷‍♂️ I greatly enjoy the “ritual” around coffee

  • it doesn’t get down to espresso grinds

If those aren’t deal-breakers, then I can’t suggest it enough! A little pricy, but significantly cheaper than an electric of similar quality.

I have that one! Got an electric encore baratza for daily use because husband isn’t as into the ‘ritual’ as I am, but I enjoyed using it quite a bit. I keep it in the cabinet now for any potential power outages; I will then bust it out with my signature look of superiority.

Nice thing about the manuals: if you have a hand drill, you can make it an electric. Fit it right over the nut that holds the handle and just drill away.

You just blew my mind, I don’t even need an adapter. My drill fits exactly to the Kaldi burr grinder I have lying around unused.
