Hi Snobs,
My Sunbeam EM4820 has died so I think it's time to buy myself a Silvia. While I'm at it I figure I may as well upgrade my ancient EM0480.
I'll be using the grinder exclusively for espresso, around 300-500g/week.
Aside from the obvious 'consistent high-quality grind', I value:
1. Ease of cleaning/not too much retention of grounds inside the machine
2. Ease of dialling in a good grind
3. Durable/easy to get parts for
4. Usable (consistent) dose timer
5. Less mess
6. Quietness would be nice but not essential.
Should I just get a doserless Rocky? My other options are a Macap M2M, Baratza Sette 270 (advertises itself as high on 1. and 4.). If it was worth it I could maybe stretch to a Macap M2D, Compak K3 Push or Eureka Mignon 50E. Should I save some money and get a Breville Smart Grinder?
