Hello - I've had my Rok Grinder for just about a year now. Mostly I've used it for espresso, and I'm pulling shots with good crema through my Rok espresso machine.
The problem is, I have no point of comparison, and this is a rabbit hole, for sure. I recently started roasting and the retailer told me the weakest link (particularly for pour over) was my grinder - and that I needed flat burrs.
Ah... And he also said I need a better brew method.
the problem with coffee is always knowing when to stop... But still. I'm wondering whether there are mods to make the Rok Grinder better, or whether it's just better to look to upgrade the whole machine. i do really like the tactile hand grinding experience... but I do want to get better results so I can fully understand what a particular roast / bean can be...
Hope this makes a bit of sense...
