Technivorm Moccamaster - KM5 Burr Grinder

It's a match made in heaven. Rebranded Eureka Filtro in a new shell.

If you’re drinking dark roasts the grinder isn’t as critical (still important) but a Baratza Encore or for an upgrade over that a Moccamaster KM5 would be more than sufficient. If it were me, I’d go with the Moccamaster KM5 since it’s 30% off on Amazon right now, it has flat burrs vs conical (nor uniform and you’d notice a meaningful improvement if you start drinking medium roast) and it would match your Moccamaster

Checkout the Moccamaster KM5 as well. If you are only doing auto drip from the Moccamaster machine and use a single type of bean (hopper) it could be a winner.

I just sold a moccamaster grinder to buy the ode for noise. I’m super impressed. https://www.reddit.com/r/pourover/s/zjKOzmTeJJ The Moccamaster would wake the neighbors. The Ode doesn’t at all.

I had a “cheap” Amazon conical burr grinder (better than blades, worse than the top of the line grinders) for years before getting my MM. Coffee with the MM was sometimes good and oftentimes bitter no matter what I tried. Over the holidays the MM grinder was on sale and I went for it and coffee is immediately so much more consistent and never bitter. I was amazed at the difference a good grinder makes. My wife is the furthest thing from a coffee snob and noticed the change as well. Prior to the MM we were doing mostly pour over with the previous grinder and I guess that process must be more forgiving in terms of taste of coffee, but when we went back to a drip coffee … whoa did we notice the difference.
