I just retrofitted my basic hand crank mill with a 10mm nut, and drove it with a drill. It’s so much faster now, but I do wonder if there’s actual properly motorized versions of what I just did.

    I have a pair of Breville/Sage SmartGrinders (which I didn’t pay anywhere near list price for).

    One for caff, one for decaff.

    I love them, as once I’ve dialed in the grind size for a bean, and set the timer per shot to hit the correct weigh, I can just bonk the button with a portafilter, and get a correctly sized dose.

    While I love experimenting with coffee, once the conclusion is reached, I like to nail down the process so I don’t need to think about it until the next bean change.
