Depending what you use it for. But unfortunately they useless for espressos. But okay for filter. I have used the Krups, didn't work. Then got the Severin. Works slightly better but still far from an espresso ground.


I now just ask Terbodore to do an espresso ground for me, and recently a local shop that did an espresso ground for me. Might become my monthly supply if they have more people that are interested.

Not fine enough for the high pressure from an espresso machine.


They put in the description "espresso ground", but that is simply because your average user have no idea what a coffee should taste like.

So really depends what you use it for. Might still be okay for Moka and will be fine for Filter.

To be honest I abuse the espresso machine for americano style drinks anyway (i.e. just run more water through it) so can probably get away with a coarser grind and more watery result anyway

It's coffee not dish water. The R230/kg stuff is great too.

The sad part is, it was a gift from a friend who started his own coffee thing. But I couldn't break it to him. It works okay for French Press.....
