Our pick
Fellow Ode Brew Grinder Gen 2
Its flat brew burrs and clear stepped dial make recipe changes easy to record, while anti-static technology limits stray grounds. K-Ultra travels with excellent manual control. Comandante C40 MK4 brings a slower, tactile ritual.

More reasons behind this pick
- Grounds transfer
- Noise
