I worry I was a bit harsh on the Hario grinder in this, as it got a lot of us started in our journey of coffee at home. I certainly don't regret selling them. I'm just excited to see changes happening at the lower end of the market.

I've been using a KINGrinder K2 for the last 4 months. I love the quality and the grind variability. After looking through CoffeeYoutube, I was almost convinced that I would never be able to make good drinks at home for less than thousands of dollars. After watching many hours of coffee YouTube and understanding what was important about dialing in, I would go to my local favorite cafe and order a flat white once a week and come home and make myself 3-4 more drinks to try and replicate their drink. I would say that after 2 weeks, I got the espresso right and that the milk frothing took me three weeks to get right. And now, armed with a KINGrinder K2, De'Longhi Stilosa EC260BK and a few budget accessories (tamper, distribution tool and good cups) I can make espresso drinks that are comparable to all the best shops in Dallas, TX and even impress my barista friends that work with big money industrial machines. I can make beautiful and delicious espresso drinks at home with a total spend of near $200. The KINGrinder K2 was the key to unlock my home scientist process to replicate the drinks from local cafes within about 5 grind attempts.

I drink terrible watered down breakroom coffee like it's the elixir of eternal life and I still find your videos really captivating. It's nice that you enjoy the finer things without being a snob about the cheaper things.
