Monolith Titan Conical

Honestly it sounds like the niche is made for you. I think you’ll be extremely happy with it. ** this is coming from a guy that drinks similar style of espresso and had the niche for several years(still do) and upgraded to a monolith conical.. I can say, the niche is an awesome grinder**

La Marzocco GS3MP, Kafatek conical and Kafatek Max.

It is very consistent.

I’ve owned the Key MK2, Kafatek, and Niche Zero (and many more flat burr grinders). I’m sticking with the Niche Zero. For me personally, it’s the best grinder for medium to dark roasts. You won’t get the most complex flavor notes, but you’ll enjoy a rich, chocolatey, nutty, and syrupy-thick espresso. It’s honestly the best and easiest conical burr grinder to use even for other people in the household. Also, this grinder is truly high-quality. With the Key and Kafatek, you must shake, because they produce a lot of fines in the grind and I don’t like to shake my grinds.

Believe me, you won’t experience a big change in flavors if you switch to the Key of Kafatek.

Espresso machines and grinders still have significant manufacturing in Italy and other western countries. None of my equipment is made in China. Mazzer, Kafatek, LA Marzocco, Elektra.
