Hi, i couldnt find any post regarding where to buy coffee beans around local, perhaps TS can paste it on first post to avoid question being ask over again. So do my question, sorry if it ever asked by other users again. I would like to ask is there any local shop sells coffee bean with a few choices and standard price and around KL/selangor area? I can't seems to find any shop that really sell coffee beans, all the while i bought it from Pacific Coffee, and each month i need to refill a pack, which is quite expensive for daily drinker. Secondly, any coffee shop sell manual coffee grinder or any cheap automatic coffee grinder with adjustable grinding level?

QUOTE(shadowcaster @ Mar 31 2014, 10:03 AM) Just some common ones: 1. Artisan roast (TTDI, Bangsar, Section 13) 2. Three Little Birds (D7, Sentul East) 3. RAW cafe (Menara Equity) 4. Jin Yi by Coffee Ritual (Damansara Uptown) 5. MyEspresso cafe (USJ 21) 6. Various cafes in Publika There are probably many more places you could buy freshly roasted coffee beans around KL. And many of these cafes also sell equipment. Btw, what is "standard price" to you? Standard i mean not as overpriced as Starbucks and Pacific coffee yet the quality still there. Below or around RM10/100g would be fine

QUOTE(shadowcaster @ Mar 31 2014, 10:46 AM) Below RM10/100g is quite difficult. Most of those places sell beans ranging from 25 - 40 for a bag of 250g. Haha. Icic, so which place do you recommend, will go and have a look first hehe... maybe will drop by these few days

i bought hario ceramic mill for few weeks already. Somehow i feel that each grinding does not produce consistent coarseness. Does anyone realize that? Or maybe because I set a little bit too loose for coarse level? Does anyone have this problem?
And anyone here use hario v60 cone dripper? Any idea where i can find cheapest in town? Just found out Parkson sell hario v60 for rm24, while in lelong sell for rm60+ above. It is the same right?

QUOTE(shadowcaster @ May 16 2014, 04:18 PM) Hario mini mill and skerton both produces somewhat inconsistent grind sizes when you increase the coarseness. It's totally normal and acceptable for the price you pay. Get a porlex hand grinder for better grind consistency but it's more expensive. There are even more expensive and better hand grinders in the market but they're generally not available in Malaysia and you need to ship it from US or Australia. i've tried to regrind it second time for better consistency. No change in flavour or taste of coffee, or maybe i'm too new to justify.

QUOTE(luvox @ Jul 16 2015, 06:51 PM) To get this china machine u need to learn to buy online from taobao. Warranty claim may b problem. Buy at own risk. But normally wont have problem, from my experience buying high HP blender, beans grinder, cheap expresso machine, robot vacuum cleaner, waffle maker, electric motorized home theater projector screen, car cam recorder, xiaomi products, so far so good. If u wana get from local, will be marked up price & warranty is also not confirmed, unless the shop give u their own warranty. Im not sure Dankoff offer this model not. I saw them do have WPM product. Thanks for your help, i will try to survey local price and taobao, if not much different then might as well get from local dealer to avoid any hassle. I am searching around RM3k+-, any quality machine that do almost same job as welhome kd-210? Thanks

@luvox thanks for your taobao suggestion, indeed it is WAY cheaper than any dealer in malaysia. But my friend told me to take into consideration of TAX and customs. 20% import duty + 6% GST. http://www.dutycalculator.com/new-import-d...ails/193707376/"Coffee Machine has an import duty rate of 20% and a GST rate of 6% . Duty rate for Coffee machine may be reduced as China-ASEAN free trade agreement applies. A certificate of origin may be required." Anyone expert in importing stuff, especially the bolded part? Thanks guys for helping
