    Anyway thank you for your considered response, and I do hope you are also having a great Melb Cup day off.
    I still dont get it that a horse race can cause a public holiday. >

        The Victorians need some joy in their lives.

        (If a third spare Robur turns up Id like to have it to see what the fuss is about.)

          Luca,

          thank you for your serious reply to my serious observation.

          Yes let me be quite clear, I do think a lot of the ".....information available on the internet isnt applicable here and that (a lot of) people are basically uncritically regurgitating information that they have received......"

          Just a couple more things. Please allow me to mention that I didnt "rank" any grinders at all. I just mentioned that - in the context of home use - various brand / models of small commercial grinders - with flat burrs - are more suitable than a robur, and do a much better job than any domestic conical (that we commonly see in our market).

          You question my credentials. You and others should be able to work out from what I have written that I have some experience, but I am also a private person and like to be just as anonymous here as many others are.

          The cringe the cringe the "cultural cringe". Why is it that we often seem to have to run to US and Canadian "experts" for the bottom line to sort out a discussion?

          Anyway I think all our cards have been played so thank you for your considered response, and I do hope you are also having a great Melb Cup day off.

          Oh, and if you happen to find 2, send one my way, but it wont be for home use ;P
          Hi BL,

          I dont think that we really need to continue this exchange any further. Suffice to say that I, personally, dont agree with your opinion of how the in-cup results rank across the different classes of grinders that you mentioned. So lets agree to disagree and others can ask questions or search for more information if they want to!

          Hope everyone had fun at the cup yesterday. I thought it was pretty funny that Peter Costello bet on "Efficient"

          Cheers,

          Luca
