Hario Skerton - hand coffee grinder with ceramic grinder (Kitchen)

Customer Review

I use the mill for 3 months for my manual Siebträgermaschine (La Pavoni). The grinding result is very good, the ceramic cone pulverizes the beans evenly and with stoic composure, without which one (s) while a sweat or earlier must inflate his biceps in the Muckibude. The mill is whether their size (for my tender hands :)) comfortable and safe grip, works best I clamp-you-between-my-leg method. That you can pack all (beautifully finished) parts in the dishwasher is not relevant to me.
So far so good.

But: the adjustment of the grind is too coarse grid possible only along a (for me). Especially at the bottom (top?) End of the scale (espresso fine!) I'm not coped with the given jumps. My makeshift, but perfectly workable solution: a simple mother who counters the focusing screen.
Advantage: continuous adjustment of the grinding degree.
Disadvantage: a reproducible setting is troublesome. Therefore, I will take good care freeness after I have groped me the optimal setting to change me.

Large But the mill has no lid! Therefore, the beans jump merrily through the kitchen, especially at the end of the milling process. I have, also provisionally, cut a piece of cardboard that the beans simply but effectively hinders their flight.

All in all a good mill, to an even better price, with potential for improvement.

Edit: I have in the www Tip the slip cap picked up to use as a lid - funzt dat! Except for one or two Bõhnchen with massive flight reflexes now all await brave her grueling fate.
