If you're unsure about which type of grinder is going to suit you, try to find a specialist coffee operator somewhere who have both Flat and Conical burr grinders set up. Try a few coffees made using the same beans ground from each grinder, then make a decision of which type suits your palate the best.

For me though, I much prefer the results from a Conical as the broadening out of the flavour spectrum translates into enjoying more of what's available from the bean. And, probably why I enjoy Ethiopians so much too...
