From Lido maker's website;
"What if something breaks? Can I get parts?
So far we have had to replace one broken plastic hopper (a large dog made off with the grinder to a bad end) and 3 adjustment rings (dropped grinder on floor with no jar in place). We have reached stable production at this point and finally have spare parts available. We will have them listed on our website soon. We have been able to supply this small number of needed parts so all is well, but open sale on the website will be better for all. Coming soon, we promise. " -
I'm not sure if it's the same dude, but one of the reviews was nonsense. He said it couldn't grind dark oily beans, that is definitely not true. He may have had a defective unit but his description of the behavior of the grinder was way off base from my experiences.
-
Well I make pour over with it every morning and it's delicious shrug
-
::) is probably about the only answer there :).
Did you ever watch the videos I did on how even the partical size was vs other hand grinders? Maybe you could have a look @ that and compare against your partical size distribution. Would be a pretty good way to see if it holds up to it and I'm full of it

I guess. I don't care that damn much but they're both conical burrs right?
-
Speaking of elbow greased grinders…
Ceramic conical burr grinder designed to fit into an AeroPress. Local roasters Novo, one of their Yirgacheffe line.
So far I can't match the flour like grind of my barazta but for a mobile solution at work and on camping trips it's good enough. Wondering how she would handle coarser grinds.
I did enjoy the bright florality of the cup.

Everything you ever wanted to know about coffee consumption in a series of charts.
The best thing has to be Bach's score of the Coffee Cantata, which looks like it was written under the influence of one espresso too many…

i just bought a new grinder and been looking to get a tamper. any recommendations on where to get from? i mean i've seen alot of cheap ones and ridiculously expensive ones. i guess for now i'll go with something in between and fairly decent in price.
-
http://mattperger.com/Pergtamp#.VYVoJxOeDRY gets my vote, not sure on price tho.
-
thanks snowy. i'll check them out.
-
A strong recommendation coming from you Snowy! I'll have to try a pound.

@steelworker I nailed the grind/pour this afternoon and it is without doubt the best coffee I can recall drinking. Previously it was a 2013 panama esmeralda geisha (as a v60), and before that a chemex @ four barrel nov/12, before that a double ristretto, white horse blend, @ Mecca espresso back in 2006. I can distinctly remember the now 4 cups, and will likely remember them for life :).

@Snowy there's a few things that make living in St. Louis great, being able to drive 10 minutes to Sump and have the man himself make me a pour over ranks right near the top.
-
@xtcclassic I can imagine! Next time you're there say he's got a fan in Sydney, Australia.

I work on the road a lot, so I love a good cup of Dunkin Donut's coffee on the go…

Lived in Seattle for about 5 years now. Easily the best coffee I have come across in my time here (not everyone drinks Starbucks here) - http://espressovivace.com/index.php/coffee-for-home/
