great grinder, but i don't think they can be had for under USD$550 anymore, post Kickstarter, no?
r/JamesHoffmann • Best grinder for under 300usd? ->On my bar currently is a Fellow Ode, Baratza Vario, and a Timemore 064s. Had SSP cast in the 064 but probably swapping them to the Ode now. All that to say, I could have just one of any of these and be perfectly happy. Timemore is probably my favorite as far as quality and workflow, plus it can genuinely pull double duty. Ode is great but obviously you’re not getting espresso there. Vario is an old design with clunky workflow but the burrs are great—in fact, the Mahlkonig X54 is essentially just an updated Vario. All these are great grinders.
r/pourover • Best filter focused grinder for $500ish ->About 0.1-0.2 grams of retention is what I’m getting with a 064s too, and at least some of that just gets stuck to a dosing cup and to inner walls of the grinder nozzle, and is easily removed by the blower they included with the unit. I don’t think that that stuff exchanges though, as after going from a pourover grind to an espresso setting, I get the exact extraction time/yield both on the first shot, and on consecutive ones.
r/espresso • “2 in 1” Grinder for Espresso and Pour over ->Super happy with my sculptor 64s
r/JamesHoffmann • Best grinder for under 300usd? ->At those prices I'd go with the 064s. (I have an 078s and I love it!). The 064s has the advantage that you can later upgrade to aftermarket burrs, which may further improve your clarity.
r/espresso • Best single dose grinder for clarity? ($350) ->Have u considered a timemore 064s that's what i use for both filter and espresso and i love it. can't see that it's been mentioned on this thread. It is my first electric grinder though so nothing really to compare it too but I find going from filter to espresso reasonably easy on it
r/espresso • What Grinder is Best For Espresso & Filter? "Buying Advice Needed" ($500-$600) Budget ->Really easy honestly I love it. yeah 1 or 2 beans may get stuck u just push them in with your finger. Lance has it quite high up his list of grinders the main reason I went for it was because I wanted to do both espresso and filter had it 2 months now and no regrets at all
r/espresso • What Grinder is Best For Espresso & Filter? "Buying Advice Needed" ($500-$600) Budget ->I'm rocking a timemore 064s that I use for both and love it i use it for espresso v60 and clever dripper
r/espresso • “2 in 1” Grinder for Espresso and Pour over ->064s will do much better on filter with stock burrs, and imo be a better grinder and platform overall
r/pourover • Electric Grinder Advice ->And I fully agree. If you have 250 € and absolutely cannot go above it - yes, it is. But OP asks about 500£ budget. There are plenty of interesting options here, even Timemore 064 can fit there if you are lucky with price.
r/JamesHoffmann • Best espresso grinder under £500 ->I use the Mahlkonig x54 for espresso, love the flavor that comes out of it, but it also retains lot if you single dose it; wouldn’t fully recommend it. I would recommend any of the Timemore 064s/078s.

Preferences are subjective!
r/pourover • Grinder ->I know it's months later and you probably already figure out the best grinder for your needs, but I have to mention for future buyers needing advice, that everyone here replying totally ignored your question which specifically asked for the best grinder for dark roast. Ode 2, the electrical Timemore, ZP6, etc are not good, they're light roast dedicated and they excel at that. That being said, why do you want anything other than your Encore for dark roast? You're not getting good results? The Encore is excellent for your needs, the more expensive ones are dedicated for light roasts and for one, they will result in a bad tasting dark roast, and second, they will get issues line clogging and require high maintenance with dark roast beans. The only thing I would get to complement the Encore would be a manual grinder for portability and variety, you would do good with a 1Zpresso J Ultra or Timemore C3
