Hi, thanks for posting that video. I also have an 01 with the 102 burrs. Got it in March and have loved it. Can't beat the customer service as well. Great company. I am an espresso only drinker and I only drink straight shots (wife likes milk drinks). I like Nordic style roasts (I get 6 bags of Tim Wendelboe coffee monthly) and have lately been playing with much slower RPM, like 200-400 rpm (1 or 2 on dial). I will say that I have had the grinder jam recently at 200 rpm with really fine grinds so I went back up to 400 rpm. Really like the quality of the brew at these slow speeds. I have been using the blind shaker from Weber and find that it makes for a smoother cup. I would love to hear what you have noticed about the difference in rpm in the cup for espresso. For me, I liked the cups I was getting when I was at the number 6 on the dial, which i think is about 1200 rpm if I remember correctly, but I think the slower rpm makes for a smoother mouth feel and maybe better aroma. I do not like the results from slow feeding it the beans as the cups are a little too bright for me so I stick with putting the beans in like you did in the video. Thanks again for your video.
Interesting - I have a different experience with my P64. My portafilters fit nicely and haven’t shaken out. I direct dose every morning, hands free, without issue
Good insight but don’t like the gatekeeping mentality of “you aren’t buying a high quality grinder for dark roasts”. The MC6 is a high end conical and the rival to this grinder. Quality is quality
That is a difficult question to answer, but based on the price, I think Lagom is the better option. However, when it comes to actual build quality, I think Max has the edge.

Lagom 01, or Eg-1. about the same price for me in the EU.
eg-1 uses blind burrs too(80mm), has a lot more burr options.
and I like the design more.
I love my 01 and currently have the 102 mizen burrs. I plan to purchase the 98 mm burr carrier to have for more burr options.
Hoon, what glass are you using?

So, would you say it’s better than the Monolith?

@@HoonsCoffeeMax and monolith are two different grinders
@@gregorio5543there is the monolith flat max and it seems like the most likely to ask for a comparison.
It’s just so big cannot justify that on my counter.
