Our Verdict

I spent two weeks testing its precision and workflow to see if its 0.015mm burr system truly delivers on its promise of barista-grade consistency.
Performance & Build Quality
The build quality is immediately apparent, featuring a robust construction that feels built to last for years of daily service.
