Wanting to add another grinder to collection (MC6 + P80?)
Hello! I’ve been using the MC6 Kafatek grinder paired with my Linea Mini R for the past two years, and I still absolutely love everything about the setup. I never get tired of it.
That said, I do sometimes crave the lighter, clearer espresso cups you get at coffee shops. They typically use flat burr grinders that seem to bring out more clarity and less of the chocolate-heavy body and texture that my MC6 produces.
I’ve always wanted an EG-1, but the more I look into it, the more the price feels a bit overboard for what I need. The Core burrs also seem more geared toward traditional espresso. I’m sure they still offer some clarity, but I keep coming back to the P80. The Mizen 80OM burrs seem like they’d pair better alongside my MC6 and give me the contrast I’m looking for.
Does that make sense, or do you think the EG-1 would still be the better addition to my collection?
