Electric grinder and hand grinder coffee grinding contrast difference buy hand grinder or electric grinder good?

For coffee flavor requirements of small partners will definitely choose freshly ground coffee. If you want to make your own, a bean grinder is essential.

Open an online shopping platform to search for "bean grinder", you can see the price range from 22 yuan to 71271 yuan, which is 3239.6 times the price difference, although the number of "100 million" units contacted in recent days is insignificant, but the difference between commodities is outrageous. Therefore, Qianjie intends to issue an article on how to choose a bean grinder for your reference.

Front Street is not an equipment party, so the professional horizontal evaluation of bean grinder is not good at Front Street, but Front Street has been open for 8 years, electric grinder has also been used seven or eight sets, hand grinder basic popular in the market have been used, below to share some views on the use of so many bean grinders in Front Street. Hand or electric? The electric mill, whether it is precision or durability or the upper limit of the price, is all-round rolling hand mill, and the advantage of hand mill is light, no electricity, can adapt to this occasion. Hand mill at the same price is better than electric mill. (A 1000-piece handmill has a great advantage over a 1000-piece electric mill)

Front Street lists some people who are suitable for choosing hand mill or electric mill respectively. You can refer to them. If you are a student party (still living in the school dormitory) budget will not be too much (below 1000) just started hand coffee, want to slowly explore the usual patronage chain coffee shop, want to improve the quality of coffee fitness enthusiasts hiking enthusiasts, business people then suggest that you choose hand mill first, and then consider electric mill. If you want to make coffee in one step at home 200 flat fixed location pursuit fast, quasi-budget sufficient (no ceiling) may wish to go directly into the electric mill. If you're an equipment collector and a coffee fanatic, I suggest all of them. How to choose handmill? Now the rise of domestic hand mill, foreign thousands of yuan hand mill, domestic pressure to 500 yuan below, then how to choose? Basic 200 below the hand-grinding do not talk about, ceramic cutterhead hand-grinding do not talk about, retro hand-grinding do not talk about.

Suitable for novice party, office white-collar purchase. 500-799 Yuan's gear is an advanced version of the hand mill, basically every family will use a better cutter head, bearings will also have a slight improvement, in terms of durability improved a lot. It is recommended to choose a large diameter cutter head, grinding will be labor-saving uniform. Basic purchase of this price of hand mill, usually pay attention to cleaning, with a two-year problem. 800-999 Yuan's gear is a high-end version of the handmill, basically can choose only three models, basically is to improve the user experience, as well as the appearance of innovation (good). Of course, you can see the improvement in the data chart given by the store (mobile phone manufacturers call experts), but the actual experience of the front street, when brewing coffee, there will be no obvious difference from the advanced version. The gear above 1000 yuan is considered expert level for the time being. Why don't you ask Qianjie why it is not divided into 1000-2000 and 2000-3000 grades? Because more than 2000 front street will suggest that you directly on the electric mill, save trouble. Indeed, more than 1000 yuan hand mill, there are 1000 yuan, there are 2000 yuan, there are 4000 yuan, there are famous German hand mill from 1500 to 2500 yuan, in general, the quality and experience will definitely be more visible than the thousand yuan below. How to choose electric mill? Qianjie especially does not recommend buying that kind of portable electric mill, you can pay attention to it, then the grinding machine with time to determine the grinding degree, commonly known as "bean cutter", is similar to the structure of the cooking machine, two knife leaves, randomly chopped.

One of the things you need to pay attention to when buying an electric mill is that your needs are to grind a very fine Italian mill or a hand mill for drip filtration. The appearance and grinding range of the two are very different. Basically, they cannot be used for both purposes (except for individual universal mills). If you have a budget of 20,000, Mazzer zm filter and Mahlkonig EK 43 pick whatever you want. In addition to the beautiful price and the relatively large area, there is basically no reason not to buy it. Of course, most of my friends budget will not be too high, probably within 4000 yuan, so what are the options? Front Street thinks Royal Fuji and Fellow ODE are good choices. Royal Fuji main ghost tooth cutter for the selling point, in the grinding degree is also more suitable to hand-based drip filter grinding. Fellow ODE is small, pure black in color, known as a small black box, with full marks for beauty. Both grinding machines belong to small electric grinders, so there is a common fault, grinding time is relatively long.

There are also friends asked Qianjie, online shopping platform price in 300-600 yuan small Fuji trust? Qianjie hurriedly looked at the various small Fuji models inside, and the words "small steel cannon","complete defeat version", and "domestic small Fuji" were written. And in an overseas online shopping platform to see the small Fuji equivalent to more than 3300 yuan, this is obviously the royal small Fuji imitator.

Front Street did not use these bean grinders, but Front Street used small Pegasus 610N, the price is about 800-900 yuan, through the grinding comparison with small Fuji, small Pegasus lost to small Fuji in accuracy, especially in the amount of fine powder, terrible. The experience of a barista on the front street: when using only the small Pegasus, there will be no problem, but as soon as the comparison is made, the difference will be immediate. As for how the $300-$600 "Little Fuji" performs, Front Street cannot make an assessment.

There are also a lot of relatively low price, good quality electric mill, but because the front street has not been used, so did not say. If you know, you can also send a private message the day after tomorrow!
