Hi guys. Forgive me if I'm a noob but hope everyone can help.

I'm a v60 drinker here. Always brew 700ml of coffee every morning for me and my dad.
I've been enjoying my Timemore C2 grinder a lot. I enjoy doing it in the mornings but there are times I wish there's an electric equivalent of my Timemore C2 grinder for my dad to enjoy when I'm working. He rather skips the grinding and drinks some overly sweet 3 in 1 Nescafe which isn't really good imo.


What is a good electric substitute for Timemore C2? And how much I will be expecting?

I'm definitely interested in Baratza Encore like how every redditor recommended but looking at the price in shopee it's like omg 2-3k price.

Don't think I can splurge a huge sum for a decent grinder. Any good recommendations for a cheaper alternative? What's the price I should be expecting out of a good electric grinder?

Budget: no more than RM500? (Or convince me if 500 isn't enough)
Burr type: I heard cone is superior but I don't mind a flat disc style
Noise level: Who doesn't want a quiet grinder? But if cheap loud grinder can give decent results why not? (I can always slap some car soundproof dynamat to those cheapo plastic body if needed )
Ease of use: Definitely prefer something easy. I wouldn't mind some hassle like crazy static in the hopper if I can clean the container externally with water and a sponge.


I'm eyeing at the Delonghi KG89 I recently saw in Harvey Norman and it looks pretty sleek for a little grinder. Reviews said it's no better than a blade grinder so I guess that's kinda out? Then shopee algorithms heard my voice and suggested to me Wellhome ZD-10T that sports conical burr grinder but I don't see any reviews out of it other than a brief overview.

Guess I can only rely on experts here.

Thanks in advance.

Is this the one you're suggesting?
Never heard of this dankoff website but hey it's local
Loved the square-ish design too. Definitely will consider this


ooh, I didn't consider lazada since I've been browsing in shopee only. Cool cool. White definitely looks cool.

Thanks guys, now I got 2 options to choose

Yup. C2 is amazing and I can grind 42g daily every morning for 700ml. I believe it took about 4 mins since I always had it on slightly finer setting like 12 click for the slight bitterness.
I will and still enjoy the C2 but wishing for an easier solution for my parents since they don't really have good arms in their age. Fellow Ode is definitely pushing my budget. (It's like my dream grinder ever since it came out. Looks damn beautiful too)

But if you say it's diminishing even for better grinder, then isn't a fellow ode not gonna do much since I am always going for big doses? Confused.
It was kinda my main reason for a low budget too since I only wanted an easy option for my family

Thanks for the insight about the big brew dose. Kinda interested to retry again for small standard doses. It's been a while since I brew a cup for myself haha
