      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 .....

        OK, after lots of reading it seems grind retention is a problem for all 3....

          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...

            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.

              You might also consider the E10OD. Better interface and it's a compact unit with the gourmet hopper.

              Robur grind times and Kony-E price...

                I have the Compak E10 and agree with talk coffee that the interface is better, and I'm using the single dose hopper.

                  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.

                      I ended up with a K10 Push. It's a beauty and my shots have leaped a level.
