Your Favorite Burr Grinder? (lemmy.world)

I mostly do drip coffee (shh, I'm basic), but I'd like a more consistent, fresh brew, and potentially something that could do an espresso grind, as well.

I've seen good things about the Capresso Infinity Plus, but thought I'd ask about the personal preferences from more experienced folks here.

It'd be lovely to have something that can easily fit on the counter, and with a simple mechanism and/or reparability (even if that means looking for old stock of a certain model).

Thanks!

Baratza Encore ESP is what you want. I have the virtuoso (non-plus) as someone else here mentioned. It technically can do espresso grind but I've found it doesn't like to and seems to be prone to getting knocked out of alignment or slightly broken with lots of espresso grinding of lightly roasted beans. Nothing major and a fairly easy fix if you're handy / can follow a youtube video / willing to buy a $3 part, but still a little annoying.

For drip or pourover it's really good though.

I previously had a capresso infinity. I think encore esp would be worth the additional cost.
