I'm getting frustrated with the lack of adjustability on the standard Bunn G1 grinder I use at my shop, as well as the coffee loss that sort of plagues this grinder.


A lot of shops use the Mahlkonig Kenias and Guatemalas, and I've seen some Dittings as well. Then there are Compaks — we have a K8 Fresh for espresso and love it, but I don't know a single person with a Compak drip grinder, so I have no reference point.


I'd love to stay under $2K on this... am leaning heavily toward the Kenia based on a couple coffee friends' recommendations, but am wondering what anyone else thinks about this. Mainly I want something that does a great job with Fetco-size batches, with some adjustability in order to dial in particular coffees. Would love it if the same grinder is also good for use with small-batch, single-cup brews as well.

Go!
