I am continuing to enjoy your grinder videos. I sure wish you would mention the relative pricing of the various machines that you compare. I appreciate your efforts to inform us coffee enthusiasts of your current interests.
Good idea to mention in the video! I put links below but can be hard to find sometimes. The Atom 60 is about $900 and the 75 is about $1400 normally
Hi, I was curious if you had experience with the mahlkonig x54? If so how does it compare to the atom 60? For espresso only
@@335861282 I don’t have any experience with it.
I discovered you for the DF64 and have really been enjoying your content! Well done
Thank you! I’ve been enjoying playing with some gesr
I can get the Eureka ATOM Specialty 65 for 970 US and the Eureka ATOM Specialty 75 for 1150 USD - But I am already out on a limb budget wise. But if there is a huge difference I could stretch maybe....
I think that retention wise, I could just clean it more often, what would matter is if there is as much of a difference in dialing in a nice shot as this guy mentions. (he compares 60 to 75, I am comparing between 65 and 75)
I don’t really care about retention much. If it’s been a few days I give a half second bump and toss the grounds. 75 grinds 18g is less than 4 seconds so it pushes quite a bit through.
Personally 75 a lot better than the 60 or 65 especially with lighter beans
I am really close to orddeling The Atom 75 but would just like to know what parts are plastic? I am guessing the piece that holds the LCD is plastic. But I expect the rest to be powder coated aluminum? Very thankful if you could tell me :)
Yes the display bezel
Is plastic that’s been coated. The area under the chute is also plastic (the black area). Hopper plastic, and part of the base. Sounds like a lot of plastic but the main body is cast, the motor is all metal, grind chamber is all metal. More just trim pieces are plastic.
I find that it is interesting how the burr sizes are advertised, since just listing the outside diameter doesn't really give the full picture. I think the inner diameter is also quite important since together they tell you how wide the grinding area is. From looking at photos, it looks like the 60 mm vs 75mm have similar inner diameters, but since the 75 has a much larger OD, it has a proportionally much larger grinding area (I.e. While the size maybe increases 25%, the grinding area maybe increases 40-50%)
Correct the inner diameter does dictate the overall surface area. I think the thing that the larger burrs allow is the ability to have a better cut when they are being made. Most burrs are about the same thickness so the smaller burrs hypotenuse of the cutting edge is much shorter meaning it’s going to split the beans differently
