A flat burr electric grinder from Timemore's Sculptor range, with 078S burrs designed for fine grinding so it handles espresso as well as pour-over.
The Sculptor range comes in two burr options, and the S matters. The plain 078 is set up for pour-over only, while the 078S uses flat burrs designed for fine grinding and high uniformity, so it covers espresso as well as pour-over. Flat burrs are two parallel discs that cut the beans between them. Adjustment is stepless, so there are no fixed clicks and you can make very small changes.
It suits you if you make both espresso and filter at home and want one flat burr grinder for both. The hopper holds around 30g, roughly one or two brews, there’s a magnetic lid over the bean entrance, and it switches itself off after 60 seconds of running. Available in black or white.
Tip: close the lid after you pour the beans in. Timemore recommends it to stop beans bouncing back up, which can make the grind less even.
