SHARDOR - Conical Burr Coffee Grinder for Home Use (Espresso)

I went with the Shardor with the portafilter attachment on the front. Seems to work great so far. I've upgraded to a bottomless basket and a scale with a timer. https://preview.redd.it/eeeskdlx5ljf1.jpeg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8f0cb82147771a2f6e1826e7a673630f6233e51d

I liked my shardor, but I had a deep and narrow (40mm) basket (a Flair Neo Flex) that allows for a coarser grind size. There’s a chance it wouldn’t grind fine enough for a standard, non-pressurized basket.

I have the Shardor flat burr and conical burr grinders. The conical one can make espresso but at settings of 0-3. It's not something I'd choose specifically for espressos but if you're at a bind it can do the job.

I have been using a shardor conical burr grinder for a bit. Had an issue with mine where grind times got exponentially longer and I contacted the company. They had pretty good customer service and replaced the unit. Fwiw, it was about 9 months to a year out from original purchase. It does espresso grind all the way to boulders. Disclaimer: I've never had a "good quality" grinder and I use a breville infuser BUT my coffee tastes better than most coffee shops I've been to.

Didn't buy this one, bought a conical burr grinder about 2 years ago. It died after about 9-12 months so I updated my review on amazon. They contacted me and shipped a brand new one.

I'm a poor coffee connoisseur, it's all i can spend on this addiction. If this one dies, I'll probably buy the flat burr mentioned here. More than likely, I'll take it apart and figure out why it broke and fix it 🤷‍♂️

Thanks! It was only around ~$70 iirc. It has more than paid for itself in the last year.

I was gonna spend £400 on a fancy machine but then ordered a SHARDOR Conical Burr grinder for £65 on amazon and It’s been great.

I got the Shardor for my espresso machine, but it couldn't grind fine enough for the espresso. That's why I got the DF54 and am happy with it. I think the ProCook will be as bad/good as the Shardor. Don't skimp on the mill, otherwise you'll buy twice or you won't be happy with it.

Df54 with filter burrs should be better than og2. Shardor with some mods and the right burr upgrade might be pretty incredible.

My B&D burr mill conked out with just a few months. I've been using a Shardor burr mill for 2+ years now and like it almost as much as my old Cuisinart that lasted for well over a decade.

How do i fix this? I bought an OEM version of this machine with a different brand logo, but it's exactly the same factory machine as the Shaedor. It cost me only around $83 at my local store. It works pretty well, but this is my first time using a grinder machine, so I’m not sure what might not be working well or how to improve it.

I got Ode2 burrs for my Shardor. Much better results. Far less fines.
