I’m replacing my Opus 1 which is a grinder that I like but there is always so much retention and chaff/grounds/mess all around the machine even after cleaning the static ports. The mess and retention are constant issues. Is the Opus 2 any better? I’m really thinking about a Turin DF54. For reference I use the Fellow Aiden almost daily and occasionally ground espresso and/or French press on the weekends. Is the Opus 2 a legitimate fix because I’m seeing just enough comments about the Opus 2 to make me nervous about buying it.

I’m replacing a Fellow Opus Gen 1. It’s a good grinder but it leaves chaff/grounds/mess all around the machine and counter top, even after I clean the machine and static ports. This grinder comes recommended on various outlets. How is the DF54 with mess, ease of use, etc.? I usually use a pour over on most days with an occasional espresso or French press so I need a variety of grind settings. I’m recognizing likely bias in this sub, but what say you?
