Shame I was going to try it. There is a place in Bath that sells it if you're close?

Edit: here......

Just timed my grind on my cheapo Amazon cylindrical hand grinder this morning and it was actually was almost 5 mins for 18g fine enough for espresso (about as fine as the grinder will go). That's a huge difference in time.

Knock are relatively local to me so I may have a look at their grinders as they have been recommended on here before IIRC. It's either that or man maths re cost and argument with OH about an electric single dose grinder which I think would do the same job in 15-20 seconds...............

This guy does it in just over 1 minute on the standard C3. Not sure if the better C3 models will do it much quicker

I usually use either a Brikka Bialetti, or more commonly, a Wacaco Picopresso. I have just ordered a Hugh Leverpresso - has anyone had time to review it?

I generally prefer to use a second crack medium roast.

Grinder is a 1Zpresso J-Max.

I use the above daily and also when travelling.
