I'm looking at purchasing a Profitec 700 soon and can't decide on a grinder.
My budget is $1600 and I've decided that I want a doserless model.
Generally, I only make 1 or 2 milk based coffees a day on weekdays, although I'm hoping that will change when I step up from my current machine/grinder combo and include more macchiatos etc.
I'd love to hear some opinions but after some research, I've whittled the list down to:
1) Super Jolly
Cons; Retention and size although it's currently at the top of my list.
2) Baratza Forte
Cons; Possible issues with build quality after reading a number of reviews and few retailers stock it which also makes me worry about quality. Mazzers are built like tanks and time tested.
Super easy to clean and recalibrate though and looks kinda trendy.
3) Eureka Zenith 65e
Cons; Not stocked at all in Australia? Well reviewed and almost a perfect package(?)
All the features I could hope for really including value for money. I just wish the site sponsors stocked it. Not sure why no one has picked it up yet.
4) Quamar m80
Cons; Seems to suffer retention issues too and not commonly recommended compared with Mazzer.
I want good, sturdy build quality, low retention and doserless. Quick, quiet and clean are bonuses that I'd value highly. Personally, I'm not a fan of doser models because they seem to be messy (we have a doser model mazzer mini at work).

(I'm hoping to buy a super jolly or a Macap M4D)
