I’ve seen lots of good things about 1ZPresso. I was kind of torn between them, Timemore, and KinGrinder. Not super set on one or another, other than the S3 currently being my top pick. But I’m not set on it or anything.
Well kingrinder is just a rebranded 1zpresso of the discontinued 1zpresso Q2 and one of the older J models.
I have the Q2 and it is awesome for filter, but takes forever to grind for espresso, like 3-5 minutes forever lol.
I didn’t know that, that’s interesting.
3-5 mins sounds painful (both figuratively and literally). From what I’ve read online, the S3 I’ve been looking at seems to be around 45 seconds or so for 18g at moka fineness (slightly more coarse than espresso, finer than filter). That seems more reasonable to me.
