  • I totally agree. At the very least it provides the opportunity for debate or the option to just agree to disagree.

    I don’t know anything about the Q stuff, but I certainly qualify for how many characterize the first two. I don’t get any value out of name calling and meanness, but it is important to freely voice my opinions regardless of whether anyone else agrees. I’ve never understood why some people have such a problem with that.

    I have lived my whole life having opinions that not everyone agrees with, it really isn’t the kind of thing that causes “PTSD” for crying out loud.






  • I bought a Kyocera brand of this model over a decade ago and I still use it often as my only coffee grinder. Simple and functional design. Easy to adjust courseness with a simple nut on a screw. Not much here to break other than the rim of the glass jar when I have hit it with the ceramic burr. But the jars are the standard canning jar size and are easy to replace or swap with something bigger.

    I spent almost $30 on mine back in the day. But Kyocera is a japanese company. Looks like the product has been cloned by several chinese companies now and is going for almost half what I paid. Of course the quality could be lower than mine, but it is a really simple design, so I don’t think I’d worry about it. If I needed another, I’d buy one of these off brand versions.

    Also… I’ve made grind for everything from french press, cold brew and super fine for espresso with this grinder. I started with a fancy electric one which died in a few years, but never replaced it because spending a couple minutes grinding manually helps wake you up as well.
