☕️ Hario Ceramic Coffee Mill-Original, Black: Precision Grinding for Freshly Ground Coffee Review

I bought the original 2016 Hario Slim for $25. He recently died in January 2020. It produces a significantly better grind than a knife sharpener and is excellent value for money. It took 160-180 revolutions to grind 18 grams of coffee in 6 clicks (fine grind for an Aeropress or Moka coffee maker). I highly recommend it if you can find it for $25.

I won't go into why it's so great as other reviewers have. I will tell you how not to remove the head on shank.1. Hold the handle and the grinder body when grinding.2. Don't let the…

Ceramic grinders produce a very consistent grind with click limiters on the setting that retain the setting you make and allow you to experiment (counting clicks back and forth) to get the right grind. I like the ease with which ground coffee can be poured into the Aeropress, it just fits. A few signs of wear after 6 years. 1 - about a year ago the grinding became more and more unstable and uneven.
