My skerton electric drill mod seem success with a little hiccup. Using square drive socket adapter, matching socket and nut (from wedge anchor). The screw thread of skerton rod not matching the nut thread, so the nut stuck at the end of skerton rod. The drill drive the skerton effortless, but in order to open the nut and adjust the grind size every time, have to slot screwdriver between step adjuster and the rod, then drive the skerton opposite of grind direction. Just a little hiccup. Sorry, no picture. tongue.gif

here you go..RMB 55 + RMB 34(ship by 4px) = RMB 89. After convert , RMB 89 = RM 48.89 , taobao will take commission from us, means this filter around 50++

Consistency same like grind manually for medium grind. Haven't tested for coarse and fine grind, but i think the result should be the same as grind manually. Haven't got budget/allocation and need for proper electric grind now, later on maybe will consider. I'm just a light coffee drinker by the way, 3 cup or less per day. blush.gif

u mean the v60? there's no such thing as a v40. haha

chemex uses their own filters... basically the difference between v60 and chemex is the filter. if you want a cleaner cup, then go for a chemex (also i think it's more forgiving compared to a v60, as in not that dependent on user skill)
