V12man Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 easy to solve, go speciality and only do doubles from now on, serious quality upgrade right there, freeJock does have a coffee shop too.... ok - it's more of a food place with coffee... pretty sure he only does doubles.... iteachcoffee 1
Wayne_Obie Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 I am currently using a Mazzer Super Jolly for home use, which is overkill combined with a lot of wasted beans. Who can recommend a good home grinder at a reasonable price? I had a Mahlkonigg Vario, but it didn't last. Being electronic, it was too expensive to repair, hence the spare shop grinder being used at home.Hey bud Are you looking electronic again? Is it for an espresso machine? Or just in general? Electronic, check this. http://www.takealot.com/baratza-encore-grinder-black/PLID41627360 If you want to save some cash but still have a great grinder for your Aeropress etc. Then this is the perfect Manual Grinder http://capecoffeebeans.co.za/collections/coffee-making-equipment/products/rhinowares-compact-hand-coffee-grinder-with-aeropress-adaptor?variant=22434370116 Jocklaw 1
Wayne_Obie Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 hey Wayne, what does Aerobie bake? Can we all get some?Very special cookies Dave... Ha ha ha bloody spell check iteachcoffee 1
Wayne_Obie Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 oops - Buy a Mazzer mini type A - but don't expect fast grinding - there is a reason they have a portafilter stand... you can use the SJ burrs in it - goes a bit faster, but it will never be a robur. Otherwise wait for the new Baratza Sette 270W http://www.baratza.com/grinder/sette-270w/ The Sette will only be available later in the year. We will be bringing in some... I am busy playing with the standard... Its a game changer! Jocklaw 1
HappyMartin Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 The Sette will only be available later in the year. We will be bringing in some... I am busy playing with the standard... Its a game changer!I want. Actually I need. Wayne_Obie 1
Meezo Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 I want. Actually I need. The Sette will only be available later in the year. We will be bringing in some... I am busy playing with the standard... Its a game changer! also keen on the The Sette Wayne_Obie 1

Its a game changer!You can drop one off when they come in for test... when you are up in Jhb.... Curious to see how it does against my grinders - looks promising though - but kind of hard to imagine it being better and faster than a Robur E - although clearly nothing is impossible. Edit - all it needs to do is drop the volume of my wifes yelling about kitchen space.... that might be worth a downgrade. Edited August 25, 2016 by V12man iteachcoffee, HappyMartin and Rocket-Boy 3

Wayne_Obie Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Eeehh I dunno, the Robur is a beast! Yeah the Robur is a beast... And far too big for kitchen. I have used my sette across the board... It has been amazing!
the nerd Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Yeah the Robur is a beast... And far too big for kitchen. I have used my sette across the board... It has been amazing! Never too big... :-) Wayne_Obie 1
V12man Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Yeah the Robur is a beast... And far too big for kitchen. Jhb kitchens are bigger than slaapstad kitchens.... Robur's are perfect for home kitchen use - they are too heavy for the wife to throw away.... the nerd and jimmycool 2

HappyMartin Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 When you smoke out the house with the roaster, expect fireworks.... keep an escape route open and a fire extinguisher handy... (for self defence only)I'm going to put it in a fairly organized tool shed where I keep all my bike stuff and so on. I also make biltong in there.
the nerd Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 I roast outside... otherwise I will have to sleep outside SpruitCommuter 1
Long Wheel Base Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 I'm going to put it in a fairly organized tool shed where I keep all my bike stuff and so on. I also make biltong in there.Is that what you call a spare room in the house?
