Alouette3 Posted June 6, 2019 Share That's one seriously good looking piece of kit. Been stalking them on Instagram for a long time now. We want pictures.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottCM Posted June 7, 2019 Share https://www.takealot.com/severin-coffee-grinder-white-silver/PLID27985263 Severin - Coffee Grinder - White & Silver R 1,349 is that a good deal ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flemish Lion Posted June 7, 2019 Share is that a good deal ? Not as good as Takealot makes it out to be but R1.650 is the best 'normal' price I have seen - so R300 discount and free delivery not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottCM Posted June 7, 2019 Share Thanks Flemish. As for the grinder itself, is it a good enough / decent piece of equipment that is recommendable for the price range or is there something better suited in that price bracket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flemish Lion Posted June 7, 2019 Share Thanks Flemish. As for the grinder itself, is it a good enough / decent piece of equipment that is recommendable for the price range or is there something better suited in that price bracket? From what I remember the 'experts' here have recommended this one. Before I got my Bean to Cup machine I was using a cheap R250 Mellware grinder but I wouldn't know what taste damage I did to my beans vs the Severin Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said - wives don't like 90lb grinders in the kitchen.... :clap: the nerd and Flemish Lion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grebel Posted June 8, 2019 Share I have the Severin. Fine for Moka, Aeropress etc but if you read up on it, it is not up to the task for higher end "proper" espresso machines. Doesn't grind fine enough apparently. barrykm, gerriemtb and Sepia 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't grind fine enough apparently.I have had no issues with my Severin. Excellent burr grinder for the price. I usually make French Press, Aeropress or pour over Coffee. It works well with my cheapy espresso machine, but I also think you will need something that can grind a bit finer if espresso is your thing.

Grebel Posted June 10, 2019 Share Take it apart and reset the zero stop a bit finer.... That is the long term plan. Just waiting for the warranty to expire. That and the fact that I don't require that level of grind at the moment. Would be a fun project though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
