Hey Fellas,
I need to solocitate some advice from those of you who have experience with a couple different grinders I'm looking at.
I'm just trying to get a little less suck (or a lot less) from my current espresso machine.
The grinders I'm primarily looking at are manuals, either one of the Hario models or the OS Lido 2. I realize that maybe none of you have had experience with the lido 2,but I'd love to hear what you've thought of the pharos or lido 1.
I also may have an opportunity to buy a Mazzer Super Jolly locally for around $300.
I only grind for espresso, and 3-4 double shots a day at the most. So a manual doesn't seem like it'd be any problem, while the SJ seems like overkill. But what I'm most interested, of course, is the quality of the espresso grind.
I'm currently leaning toward the lido 2. I just want something that hopefully won't do two things my current grinder does, make clumpy espresso grinds, and get the grinds all stuck up in the machine where it's a PITA to shake and slap out.
Any advice is greatly appreciated, and thanks in advance!
Eric
