Review on ☕ Hario Ceramic Coffee Mill - 'Skerton Plus' Manual Coffee Grinder with 100g Coffee Capacity by Jordan Epps

Skerton Pro was the 3rd coffee grinder I owned. I used JavaPress before Skerton which is much cheaper. I decided to give Skerton a try, hoping it would take less effort. I found JavaPress slippery and over time I started to worry about hurting my wrists. Skerton initially seemed much better, but like the JavaPress, it became increasingly difficult to crank as it wore down its innards and the consistency of the grind began to deteriorate. . Ceramic grinding stones are very durable, but plastic parts wear out and after a year the shaft has more play. When I first started using Skerton, my focus was on French Press. I've always had fines in coffee, but I figured that's how the French Press works. Later I started using Moka Pot 3 cups and Hario V60. Both prevented small particles from getting into the coffee, but the discrepancy affected the taste. The big problem, however, is that with finer grinds, especially with lighter roasts, the grinder tends to block and the physical exertion increases. Before Skerton and JavaPresse, I had a $40 electric burr mill. I could say that Skerton is better than electric coffee grinders in this price range. After I bought a six-cup Chemex and felt like I could actually get RSI from grinding, I switched back to a $100 electric coffee grinder. Skerton has absolutely no competition with the new electric coffee grinder, an electric coffee grinder in this price segment produces a much more even grinding result.
