I currently have a Macap M4D which I am using with a La Marzocco GS3. I am thinking about upgrading grinders.
I have just read the huge post about Conical vs flat burr grinders. The message that I got from the post is that conical grinders are better at extracting fruit and more of the high end acidic flavours.
I prefer sweetness and a lot of aroma but do not like acid or fruit. Hence I am considering staying with a flat burr grinder.
I am wondering if I stay with a flat burr grinder how much difference does burr size and burr design affect taste in the cup.
I am looking at the Compac F8 or the mahlkoenig K30 or even a mahlkoenig Peak.
I am wondering if anyone has any experience with these grinders or thoughts and could tell me how much variation it taste to expect between these grinders.
Also would I expect to notice a taste improvement compared to my current Macap M4D?
Thanks
