COFFEE: What are you drinking?

Maxwell House and a "My Uzi"

I impulse bought a Breville Smart Grinder, because the price was too good to pass up (119.99). Sent the gf to Caribou to pick up a pound of beans (just let her pick, since I don't drink as much coffee as she does). But she decided to get Starbucks instead. Not a fan of any Starbucks product, but the grinder did an excellent job.

I love the grinder, but for my use, it does a less than desirable job for getting it coarse enough for cold brewing. The grounds are still just a bit too fine that it really plugs up the filter. It does great for the french press.

One of these days I'll get it dialed in on the grind needed for my Nespresso and Keurigs to use it for something other than the most coarse setting.
