I have been making do without an electric grinder for a while now and I have decided the time has come to get one back on the kitchen work surface. I usually make coffee with my aeropress or chemex, and sometimes grind coarsely for cold brew. I don't have an espresso machine and while I could imagine myself dabbling with the weirder manual and stovetop espresso options out there, I know that I prefer the extraction from pourover so it would never be a Thing.
I am trying to decide between the Fellow Ode v2 and the Baratza Encore ESP. One the one hand I feel I can't go wrong with a Baratza and the ESP would give me some extra flexibility. On the other hand, the Fellow Ode probably matches my coffee sensibilities perfectly. I can't really see myself choosing other grinders because I have had a Baratza before in a former life and I know their customer service is amazing. It's just those burrs on the Fellow Ode v2 that are tempting me. Any thoughts? Gotchas? Steers either way?
Gonna be honest, I misread to the title as a reference to Grindr, and I was wondering what an inability to choose between hot guys had to do with coffee.
But as to your actual question, your knowledge of coffee is obviously way beyond mine mate. I hope someone posts an actual answer.
