I wish I bought one sooner

Posted by: BTL
I have used it for 10 days so far and love it. Coffee tastes amazing now. I love to 2 Gen Burrs, way better clarity, sweetness, and balance in each cup now. Works perfectly
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Decision 2024
on December 28, 2024
Posted by: Maximus
I’ve been using the Baratza Encore (which I liked a lot) for years, but the static electricity would get coffee grinds everywhere. This is both quieter, and faster and absolutely no mess. Aesthetically it’s gorgeous as well. Couldn’t recommend higher. I also purchased it for my Father!

Easy and so many options

we got this with our Aidan coffee maker and it’s a match made in coffee lovers heaven. The Aidan tells you exactly how much coffee to add to the grinder and the guide that comes with the grinder will tell you what range to use on the machine to get the beans just right for however you want to brew. I love all the different options and the simplicity of use. Instructions are very clear and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to elevate their coffee experience!

good coffee bad grinder
on January 9, 2025

Makes good coffee but beans stay in hopper and you need to constantly push them into the burrs. also it makes a metallic grinding sound after beans have finished grinding. Fellow is replacing it.

Great grind consistency
on January 16, 2025
Posted by: Trav123
Love the grinder performance but the beans get caught in the hopper and sometimes don’t fall into the grinder unless you move them manually. Maybe there should be something that agitates the bean in the hopper so they fall into the grinder.

Flawless Grind, Delightful Design
on January 29, 2025
Posted by: Dan
The Opus grinder is a good example of user-centered design. I appreciate the grind guide printed on the lid, the use of magnets to center the collection cup perfectly and the V-shaped "funnel" inside the collection cup to ensure the grinds nicely pour into the basket or other receptacle. Oh, and, the coffee grind is flawless.

An exceptional burr grinder that produces a uniform grind every time! Quiet and well designed.
on February 19, 2025
Posted by: * Ron *
I purchased this particular grinder because I wanted a more uniform grind result than the old blade grinder that literally shreds the beans - often leaving chunks of beans in the mix. This burr grinder has made such a difference for me! I'm still experimenting with the settings to get the final strength and taste I'm looking for, but for poor over coffee, this has been a real game changer. My only reason for not giving it 5 stars is because I've yet to complete a grind without having to tap the side of the grinder to dislodge some beans and then restart the process. Trust me, this is minor, and the quality of the ground coffee is well worth the few seconds it takes to restart the grinder.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Practically perfect in every way
on February 24, 2025
Posted by: rampaige
I had an Encore for nearly 10 years. While it was ok, it was always messy, and the grind was inconsistent. It was rebuilt with the upgraded burrs at some point, which was a pain in the you-know-what, but that didn't help. We'd been on the lookout for a new grinder and let me tell you, it's a HUGE difference.
No mess. Consistent, beautiful grinds. Quiet. No chaff. The flavor profile of my local roasts is stunning now, no matter the brew method.
It's like Glinda floated down in a pink bubble and blessed my coffee with her wizard-gifted magic. Unicorns cried when they smelled the first brew because it was so beautiful. A sloth somehow found the speed to taste the coffee post-haste.
Overall, this is a stunner — both in aesthetics and in taste. The negative reviews I read wanted this to brew coffee and espresso; no machine will realistically handle that. Have two grinders, sugar bear!
