QUOTE(mrtools @ Jan 12 2019, 09:01 PM) Hi everyone. I'm interested in the 1zpresso Q but I still can't figure out taobao. How much is the shipping to Malaysia? Thanks in advance. Approximately MYR16 via air shipping which is quite cheap(direct Taobao). If you are not familiar with Taobao, can try use a 3rd party forwarder such as ezbuy,sgshop, etc, but there is a bit of additional charge from them. |

QUOTE(moon'prong @ Jan 15 2019, 06:30 PM) tight budget tho, For 1 - 2 cups per day and at your budget, I would highly recommend a hand grinder. else i would choose to become grinding robot with comandante anyway thanks for the reco, will have a look on it. basically knowing not much bout machine grinder, for wellhomepro zd10, that price is just too attractive to me Check couple of pages back for recommendation by rytopa. A good quality hand grinder with steel burrs requires much less effort/energy compared to the ceramic burrs hand grinder. I myself was using Porlex hand grinder and upgraded to Anonymous Hand grinder and was astonished at the quality/effort needed to grind. Grind quality is a lot better too, its on a whole different league compared to those ceramic burrs hand grinder. |

QUOTE(4lt4ir @ Jun 22 2019, 02:44 PM) Good info, but which one of the China grinders come at below RM400 delivered? IIRC, the 1ZPresso is around RM1k? Hoping for your feedback, since it's difficult for me to find stuff on Taobao. Thanks in advance. For Espresso hand grinder, best value for money, I would highly recommend the ACE 48 grinder, it should around MYR 366 before shipping, so around MYR 400 ish with shipping I think.Its using a 48mm Italmill burrs. https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09...._u=o2khfne1f058 But you had to pre-order (next batch shipment is on 15 July) . I had waited for 3 months for mine to arrive btw. Check the picture of the grinder in the review instead of the details page since the seller had made a lot of upgrade and improvement. |

QUOTE(4lt4ir @ Jun 24 2019, 12:13 PM) Great info! Thanks, much appreciated. Either 1Zpresso Q or the ACE48 grinder will make your Mini Mill feels like a toy in comparison.ACE48 grinder..ok. I'll take a look. Thanks for the link & your valuable input! Question: how much different/better would it be using the ACE48 or the 1ZPresso Q compared to the Hario Mini Mill (my hand grinder for now)? Lately I've gravitated towards using the Mini Mill than my electric grinder. Somehow I think it gives me better clarity & flavour. I myself was using Porlex hand grinder previously (which is pretty similar to the Hario hand grinder in terms of grind quality), then moved on to China made hand grinder, and never looked back (Anonymous coffee Hand Grinder, 1Zpresso Z-Pro (48mm burr) and then the ACE48. Honestly, I dont feel like its worth to spend money on the grinder such as Commandante, Lido etc since the China made hand grinder are just as good but a lot cheaper.

QUOTE(J_Vansen_S @ Jun 25 2019, 02:44 PM) hi to all, Barista/Roaster/CoffeeGeeks Kinu is really more suitable for Espresso due to the burr geometry (can grind very fine)Need some opinion on a new electric grinder:- I currently have the Mazzer Super Jolly for my espresso, i am in the lookout for a relatively good grinder(cafe-ishQuality) for making pour over. I had breville smart grinder as my 1st grinder, it sux to the max core, gear stripped after about 1 yr ++, and a spare one in my office also broke down. If may be a good-ish grinder but quality is terrible & u cant get individual part replacement for it. Anyway, also had the Rancillio Rocky; sold it to upgrade to the MAzzer, so now im looking for another grinder just for pour over/chemex/syphon Ive been doing my readups, sayin that hand grinder makes exponentially better pour overs, comparing the electric grinder? So whats the electric version equivalent of the highly recommended commandante & kinu? ek43 over my budget, is that what all/most cafe use for their pour over. Cafe owner/roaster/barista what do u use for non-espresso coffee? Option 1: Perhaps another Mazzer Super Jolly with SSP brewing burr? Option 2: Fuji Royale R220 , Kalita Nice Cut G (Ghost teeth burrs). A specialty coffee shop I that visited are using Kalita Nice Cut for their pourover. Option 3: Budget version: China made - Fuji Royale R220 clone (check out the link by Rytopa probably few pages earlier) I also owned a Breville Smart grinder for the past 4 years, running fine so far, perhaps because of my low usage / I dont grind light roast very often. |

You should be able to see it during Coffee Fest coming July |

QUOTE(Terence573 @ Aug 16 2019, 11:01 PM) Yes despite the kg89 being convenient and fast,it still doesn't grind consistent enough for a good espresso.Yesterday I tried to use back the basic ceramic burr grinder that I had been using and to my surprise the grind was far more consistent /finer than the kg89 and the shot didnt came out bitter as it did...maybe the kg89 just a bad grinder/investment...lol.any suggestion for a bang for buck grinder that does the job right? Online searches only show models that barely seen/sells here locally. What is your budget for new grinder? Would highly recommend a premium hand grinder(steel burrs) if you just make 3-4 cups a day. Else , maybe a secondhand electric grinder. I think lowkl is letting go his Eureka Mignon. Can contact him if you are interested. |

Agree with dwRK, the burr's edge looks rounded.Grinder Sanremo SRL Model: SR 70 E, 350W. SR-70 is using 64mm flat burrs yes? I wonder if the Superjolly burr can fit to this grinder. Should be much easier to source since it is quite common grinder. |

QUOTE(terence775 @ Dec 3 2019, 04:58 PM) @lowkl I understand what you mean. Going for premium brands like Lido or Comandante makes the grinder itself RM 1000. However "budget" or entry level brands like the Hario Slim or even Skerton are not good enough. In an ideal world, I would be using the ROK or the Flair or even the La Marzono paired with a Helios or Aergrind however at the moment I can only afford baby steps. And to cut cost, I plan to do everything manually. I suppose you are very happy with your 1Zpresso Z Pro, and I hope the quality trickles down to their more budget models. I just spoke to the 1Zpresso team on their FB and received a very friendly customer service. They recommended me to get the Q series grinder+ the Y3.3, which total would be around RM 500 ish. They said the Q series grinder can grind fine enough for their Y3.3 to make good shots. After speaking with them I am leaning more towards their suggestion. The 1z Q should be far better than any Hario / Porlex ceramic burr grinder. Are you getting their combo package that comes with the carrying case and mini scale? Seems like a really good deal! https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10....id=560838953981 Should be RMB 100 cheaper if you wait until 12.12. |

Plus the warranty and after sales support would be easier and better too. |

Since Dankoff can do repair (with charges), then this should be a good buy then.
But one thing to keep in mind, is that for 12-12 sales, the shipping is going to be rough for obvious reason. If there is some sort of shipping insurance, its a good idea to get it. |
