Where some of the ultra high end grinders are awesome, they all have flaws too. I didn’t want the weber as it is too slow and can stall, something I hated on my Ceado (the stalling, that thing is fast). Currently use the Philos and MK e65w, not extreme but a good enough balance with the Micra at about 1:1 costs grinders vs machine. I would have loved an actual dream model like the Sanremo x-one but it doesn’t fit my kitchen and it is a bit of a hard sell at 8k+

Buy the best looking grinder iyo in the highest end category. Honestly the incremental gains are the high end are v diminishing. Bought an eg1 and haven’t had upgraditis since. Get a few brewers to play with and a few nice cups. Somehow there’s always space for new brewers and cups. Sort out water if where you stay has terrible water. Use the rest of the money for good coffee. This is imo the most underrated recommendation. Find roasters you like and splurge on beans.

I thought about this question countless time and here’s how I’ll spend it if I were you Weber eg1: 4200$ Basically the ultimate end game grinder with a couple of burr options Timeore 078 700$ A grinder focused on clarity and juiciness for light roasted coffee Acaia scale roughly 300$ Basically the best out there All kind of droppers (emersion, flat beds cones…etc) ≈500$ Decent quality kettle ≈ 250$ Water equipments 100$ A couple of vacuum sealed coffee containers ≈300$ And I’ll spend the rest on premium coffee beans

Use a Weber EG-1 and a Ceado E37Z HERO with a GS3 MP.

The tiny A2 powers through beans that the EG1 can't handle 😂. It's going to blow up in this sub in the very near future...

I had an EG-1 for 5 years and had a few occasions to contact Weber. Doug responded one time and the service department the other times. They were prompt and resolved my issue immediately. No problem at all.

You're not wrong that I've made a similar comment in the past. I've read many times about Weber's poor service reputation and usually from people like you who have no actual experience with the company. So I typically share my experience because I had no problems. Your post was an odd reaction to someone going out of their way to offer you information.
