Old thread but I'm happy to revive it.
I'm finally going conical - M7D K10 or Kony.
Nice choice now, but what should I go for?
Looks of all are good to me.
Grind retention will be the deciding factor. I expect the M7D wins there .....
Really, if you're in the market for this type of grinder, grind retention shouldn't even be in the decision equation.
I realise though that a lot of people seemed to be terrified of the dreaded retention, it's never been something I've ever been concerned about with my Kony-E...
If retention is such a huge bugbear though, why not look at the Elektra Nino, reputed to have next to no retention whatsoever...

Mal.
Being a Nino owner, I can confirm that there is virtually no retention and it is a fantastic grinder, however I agree with Mal- retention is not such a big issue and certainly shouldn't be a prime decider when making such a purchase. Consistency and repeatability are far more important factors which pretty much any Titan conical will give you.
E10 OD is amazing. 3-4 seconds for a double shot - Wow! Decisions, decisions.
Loving my Compak E10 OD too, it's definitely a step change from my old super jolly. LED lights at either side of the chute and portafilter holder are definitely very nice touches.
I stop worrying about grind retention. Coffee tastes mighty fine even without purging in humid tropical weather.
