Review on ☕️ 1Zpresso J-Max S Manual Coffee Grinder - Silver Coated Conical Burr, Foldable Handle, 40g Capacity, Numerical Adjustable Fineness Setting, Fast Grinding Efficiency - Ideal for Espresso by Geoffrey Graham

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic high-quality grinder.

I was hesitant to spend so much on a grinder, but I think it is totally worth the price. It seems well build and hopefully will last for years. I love the ease for selecting grind settings; I use it several times a day, and every other day I switch the type of grind I need. Having the settings indicator outside makes it so easy to do so, and always accurate.It is also a fast grinder. It used to take me about 1 minute to grind 1 cup for Aeropress using a Hario grinder, but with this one it takes about 10-15 seconds. When I researched it, I read that it is a little big and people with small hands might have an issue holding it. I do think that it could be an issue, but it has rubber base so you could hold it on a counter. It also comes with a rubber band for better grip.One of my complains with cheaper grinders is getting spare parts. I couldn't find any clear info if the company sells spares parts, but I doubt I will need them any time soon. I did read several reviews that customer service is great.Overall, if you grind beans daily, or switch between different grinds, it is totally worth it.

Pros
  • Durable construction allows for heavy use without wear and tear
Cons
  • The J-Max S may not be suitable for those who require a coffee grinder with a more ergonomic design
