How does the Opus hold up? I’ve heard mixed reviews, especially when grinding for espresso.
Very jealous of that Decent! Maybe it’s a good thing I don’t have one though. I feel like I would go crazy trying to dial in the perfect recipe with all the stats it gives and customizations you can do.
The Opus is ok. I was really excited for it to come out since I wanted a grinder that could do pour over and espresso. I like the anti-static tech but the all-plastic build is a bit of a let down. It works well, is easy to dial in but I think my next grinder will be more metal.
The Decent is fantastic! True the settings seem overwhelming but it comes with a ton of presets that all you need to do is load the portafilter, pick a preset and hit a button. I was making great shots on day 1 without a lot of fiddling around. Once you get the hang of the settings, it's fun to experiment with other presets or even make your own.
