Awesome. I was second guessing ordering this because I read that you do get a lot more sweetness from conical grinders but I have not found that to be an issue at all. The grind consistency on this is amazing and the most underrated benefit is I don’t have a SINGLE coffee grind anywhere to be found in proximity to the grinder. Totally eliminates static and keeps your counter spotless. Don’t hesitate - I should have bought this the minute it was released!
It's quieter than our last grinder: I went with the standard burr instead of the "upgraded" one so to not compromise the quietness. It doesn't spray grounds all over our counter like our old grinder used to. It seems easy to clean and has been beautiful to work with every morning.
I really like the upgrade on the Ode brew grinder Gen 2 . Increasing the capacity was a huge plus , It’s also remarkably quite and quick with precision grind quality .
If this grinder isn't whisper quiet it's much less noisy than my Baratza, which is loud enough to wake the dead. But that's only the beginning of the Ode Brew's charms. In short, attention has been paid to every detail of this device, from its spill-free, magnetic catch jar, to the grinder instructions printed on the underside of the hopper lid. Yes, it's expensive, but picture this: you just woke up, you already have to suffer the interminable wait before you can bring a rejuvenating sip of joe to your lips. Do you really want to be wiping your counter free of grind mess on top of everything else? That's what I thought. Sell whatever you've got to sell to get your hands on this.
Best grinder I have owned! It is quiet compared to most grinders and the technology of static and shape of the coffee container has me sold! I love not having to clean up a confetti coffee all over my counter top! The bean integrity is great too! This is an all around must have. I’m thinking about buying one for my office too! The price is steeped than most grinders, but in my opinion, it is worth it.
