I just retrofitted my basic hand crank mill with a 10mm nut, and drove it with a drill. It's so much faster now, but I do wonder if there's actual properly motorized versions of what I just did.

This exactly, except Ibuse a DeWalt. I have found that the brand power tool used has little effect on the taste and extraction, however.

I've been using a LIDO 2 for a few years, but am considering the move to 1zpresso...

I found a shitty little electric grinder on the side of the road in Massachusetts a decade ago. Still using it, it's great.

Edit: it's a Proctor-Silex with the little plastic dome so maybe a bit bougie

At home for espresso I use a Varia vs3 gen2 with the second best burrs (bestness being ranked by price) it's a single dose grinder with good reviews

At work for a plunger (French press) I use a hario skerton, without a drill

I thought this was a meme until I read the description XD

I use the Lagom Mini which has been great

That timemore hand crank one, I drove it with a drill a couple of months ago for fun but I don't want to ruin the hex shaft if it slips.

Alton Brown did that with a pepper grinder.

So .. hell yeah!👍
