The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

Does anyone have a good suggestion for a manual coffee grinder? I have heard folks discuss the Peugeot grinders, but I want to see about alternatives.

I've enjoyed my 1Zpresso K-Max, although in retrospect getting the blind shaker design in the magnetic catch cup of the K-Plus would have been nice. The external adjustment with detents was a selling point for me, despite it having a slightly coarser adjustment than comparably-priced manual grinders.

For what it's worth, I have a J-Max and hate the magnetic catch cup. It used to come off while grinding probably 10% of the time. I now leave a strip of electrical tape on it to keep it on while grinding.
