New grinder for my Moka pot.
(lemmy.world)
I've always used a cheap coffee grinder for my Moka. It created very uneven grounds but it's what I had. It finally stopped working so a relative gifted me this MAVO manual grinder.
It's the first experience I've had with a bur grinder and the grounds it produces are very uniform.
I'm still dialing the grind setting for my liking but I'm enjoying the process. I'll also need to pick up a few different roasts to experiment with.

I have the same Moka pot but with the 1Zpresso JX Pro hand grinder, works great at 20 ticks setting. Just takes some time and akward effort. After a few years I bought a electric grinder and it takes just a few seconds and no awkwardness. Hand grinders are fine for brew / pour over / french press I think because it takes not much effort and time to grind. For espresso you will almost start to sweat. For turkish it is a aerorobics pass
The KinGrinder ones have a hexagonal bolt where you put the handle on... or your cordless screwdriver with a bit holder. Really like that feature.
Ok my hand grinder has the same
Already tried it?
it is not as nice as it seems. Those tools are often dirty, perhaps oily, heavy, needs charging etc. You probably need a 24V machine to rotate the hand grinder for espresso and you still need to fixate the hand grinder, very messy and akward experience
I started with a (I think) Javapresse knock-off and the pentagonal shaft head was a wtf.
