Top Criticism

+40 pts

“I wouldn’t recommend a ZP6 like some here for Costco coffee. You don’t want a high clarity grinder for mediocre coffee. And I don’t think a K-Ultra is worth it because you can get 95% there with a Kingrinder K6 for $99. So the k6 would be my choice. If it has to be electric I’d probably get a used fellow ode or new DF54”
