I have the Ode, but was not happy with having to clean it as much as I was for daily use. I ended up grinding a weeks worth and cleaning once. I found a video of the Opus2 and had to give it a shot. There is a big difference in feel between the two, the Ode being a more solid feel. With that quick comparison, I am highly impressed with the Opus 2. The grind consistency is enough to make me break out my vacuum brewer on weekends. I have used Fellow products, from grinders to the Carter Move mug, for some time now and enjoy each one. I have even converted a few friends who enjoy them as well.
Great grinder that fixed almost all of the issues from the Opus 1. It grinds the beans incredibly fast and has almost no retention. I hope it holds up to the test of time. Only thing is I wish less of the body and components were plastic.
I bought this specifically to pair with my new espresso machine. As I also brew French press, it seemed like this would be a good option to do both brew methods. However, I am a little disappointed. Technically it works for espresso but the adustments for the espresso grinds are not as adjustable as I would have hoped.
Retentions is about 1g. Which you can get used to if you as long as you are not changing beans or grind size.
The bigger issue is that in-consistent grinding. At the same setting I can see ground coffee of varying sizes in the same batch, even after purging and discarding the first couple of grams.
I purchased the Opus 2 along with the Aiden coffee maker. Though I am not a coffee drinker, my friends and family who have used the Opus and Aiden over the past month have been pleased with the end result.
