I got a hand cranked burr grinder a decade ago. It was pretty slow, and I gave myself tennis elbow after a few days. Went back to pre-ground for good after that.

I like coffee done right, but I can compromise.

    In that time there has been an incredible increase in quality of electric grinders couple with a substantial drop in cost.

    I'm not trying to convince you to spend more money, just wanted to point out the incredible advances in home grinders in that time. The market is basically unrecognisable

    That is interesting news. I'll keep it in mind! Lately I've been trying to drink less coffee, but I doubt whether I'll succeed. It's nice to know there are better options!

    i got me a cheap baratza encore and it's consistent enough for me.

    That's cheap?

    Maybe my palate is exceedingly rough, but normal coffee is not nearly bad enough to justify a £160 gadget.

    Apologies. It was £60 when I got it

    Yeah that sounds like a gadget from the reality I'm from originally. No idea how I ended up in this one.
