Review on 1Zpresso JX-Pro S Manual Coffee Grinder: Portable, Efficient, And Adjustable For Perfect Coffee Every Time! by Kevin Nelson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good Grinder with Inconvenient Dialling and Griding

Like:1. Solid and sturdy design.2. Heavy and feels well built.Dislike:1. adjustment dial numbers and dots are not readable except in bright light.2. adjustment dial is small and awkward to adjust the grind setting. (I am a very small man 5'3" tall and slim).3. adjustment dial retains coffee bean (whole and broken), the grinder handle does not sit well unless beans are removed from the middle of the adjustment dial, which is awkward. I had to blow air with my mouth to remove the bean which flew off the hopper.4. there is no good way stow the grinding handle.My solution to those inconveniences:1. I have created a wooden disc that I put on top of adjustment dial before I pour bean in the hopper so that the bean does not go in the middle of the adjustment dial.2. I have used a permanent marker to put some ink in the numbers and dried it. It is somewhat readable now.3. will try to 3D print some attachment to help the dialling. Still developing the design.I would not have purchased the grinder, if I knew these incoveniences.4.

Pros
  • Simple and easy-to-use interface make grinding fresh coffee beans a breeze
Cons
  • May not be suitable for those who are not willing to put in the effort to manually grind
