Hello what is the size of the drill socket that I need?

[@GoTellJesusSaves]

Watching this has me realizing that I'm gonna need a drill with plenty of torque and a very low speed setting.

[@adriand6477]

Milwaukee impact works great

[@Bloodysugar]

@@adriand6477 For drilling or wrenching, sure, but not for grinding coffee.
Torque is important, but low speed is also a key here.
We're talking 100 to 200 RPM max, the faster it will go beyond that speed the worse coffee will taste. And also this speed has to be consistant and it's very hard to keep it under control with any drill/wrench, Milwaukee products included.

[@Bloodysugar]

In fact we are looking for a steper motor around 40nm of torque and 300 RPM with a speed dial to fine adjust speed to our coffees and tastes. And we want it fixed (like wall mounted) to avoid kickbacks.

[@Bloodysugar]

@@adriand6477 That's a great solution for sure. :)

It seems like the grind setting is shifting or is the whole grinder just slipping?

[@SuperZen1990]

Can u tell me that kind of drill head?

[@fisher4022]

Lmao I just started doing this this week for my espresso grinder and can’t go back to handcranks

[@kvygeek]

Yay exactly! Since then I never use hand-cranks

[@Erussame]

RPM??

[@MrPrateekchakraverty]

Gring setting for K6 also the same? 57 clicks?

[@kvygeek]

Hi, I’m not sure about this but you may give it a try

[@MrPrateekchakraverty]

I was just watching your video on Hugh IMS basket for Picopresso. It seems k4 is set at 52 there. 😊

[@kvygeek]

@@MrPrateekchakraverty thanks for the highlight 😉

[@crabbynebula]

Hi!
Does Kingrinder officially recommends a specific torque (Nm) and speed (RPM) for the drill when we use the drill to grind coffee beans with the Kingrinder K4?
Thanks for the vid!

[@kvygeek]

Hi, nope they did not, I got this idea from other users

[@marmotsongs]

I asked them and they did not. I keep it between under 100 rpm.

[@poiisondn]

Does this drill + Kingrinder only apply to the K4 model or does drilling work for all models of Kingrinder?

[@kvygeek]

I think it’s possible to match with other model

[@Katsuyamaki]

Do you use the same 57 clicks using a drill and by hand? Taste the same?

[@kvygeek]

Yea correct, taste are same too

[@wenklee1656]

Is it noisy ? Will you recommend still

[@kvygeek]

The noisy is on the drilling, i will still recommend. Whenever i need to grind on more finer, it requires more energy if grind manually by hand, so using drilling helps alot and more easier.

[@smdftb]

where can i find the transparent bottom casing?

[@kvygeek]

The transparent casing come with a set when I bought it

Good for Turkish Greek coffee?

[@kvygeek]

Hi, good question but I’m not sure because i don’t know how to make Turkish Greek coffee

[@lihermann]

@@kvygeek is powder fine, sugar fine

[@Abdullah-cj2mh]

Hello. I have a K4 grinder and yes, it can definitely grind fine for Turkish. Actually I was surprised it might have even been too fine at 35 clicks so I might try maybe 45 clicks or something next time. Of course it takes a while to grind for Turkish coffee, maybe like 4 minutes by hand but it’s impressive anyways that this grinder can even go fine enough for Turkish coffee. Also if you want, you can technically grind Turkish with any grinder if you just pound it with a mortar and pestle afterwards to turn it ultra-fine.

[@waylandchin]

It looks like the grind setting was moving to a different sitting as you were grinding

[@kvygeek]

Sharp eye haha, yup I didn’t hold well when grinding. Need to be more caution on that

[@ingvarsan3178]

Hello. What is the torque of a screwdriver?

[@kvygeek]

Not sure about the torque 😅

[@jrduarte99]

I have bought a drill that's 23N. My previous one had 13N and didn't work well. However I've noticed the coffee tastes sour (not only acid) when I grind too fast. I'm still getting getting used to it, since the new dril arrived only yesterday.
