oe lido 2

[timdimdom]

since it was announced late last year i've been keeping an eye on this and have noticed a couple batches were very quickly sold out from chris at talk coffee.

a quick search didnt yield any results on it here in CS so i thought i'd post and ask if anyone could give their feedback on their experiences the grinder? =)

cheers,
tim

I think in fact Chris is still waiting for stock to arrive - apparently there have been some issues with supply - and so marked it as sold out to prevent further orders.

I can vouch for the Lido 1; I use it with the Bacchi and it produces a top brew. The Lido 2 would be even better.

Hi Chris
You've been using one for a few months now and mentioned in another thread about the glass catcher jar - how do you reckon it looks for longevity? Seem rugged enough?
Me-thinking 4wd'ing trips etc …

G'day Matt,

The catcher jar- just a jar. I understand that plenty of spares are coming in but I wonder why glass was used only for the jar? It doesn't seem to reduce static...

Out of curiosity, I looked in my pantry to see if something we had would be a replacement- but no go at our place.

Thanks Chris
Certainly not a deal breaker - looks like a great grinder!
I agree - the choice does seem a little strange for a hand-held item that will more than likely be knocked over or dropped at some stage. I'm sure someone in the CS community will find a work around though

My Lido came in a neoprene carrier which keeps it reasonably well protected in between uses. Just need to be a little careful while using- no breakage yet.

Seems it's an option now.

Mine has arrived - thanks for the prompt delivery Chris!

I haven't tried it yet but have adjusted the grind to the rough area for espresso as per the instructions.

Looks like a nice solid piece of kit. I plan to use it on holidays - it will take up less space in the boot than my HG-One!

I reckon a neoprene wine bottle pouch could do the trick

Hope you enjoy it Sniff,

Big rush to get them all out last night and I made the post office by....... 3 minutes!

All backorders went express post so for those in "the zone" as determined by Ozpost, you should have your grinder today.

Cheers

Hi chris, of the reviews i read from the states i couldn't find any that used this for espresso based coffee. Any comments on how it goes when used for espresso?
