Fellow、電動バーコーヒーグラインダーオーパス、ブラック。

説明書が英語だったので どうしようと思ったのですが 翻訳で何とか分かりました。

Le moulin à café Fellow Opus est vraiment impressionnant. Son design moderne et épuré se marie parfaitement avec n'importe quelle cuisine, et il est incroyablement facile à utiliser. Les différents réglages de mouture permettent d'obtenir la granulométrie parfaite, que ce soit pour un espresso serré ou un café filtre léger. Le mécanisme est précis et le broyage est homogène, ce qui améliore vraiment le goût du café. De plus, il est robuste et durable, ce qui en fait un excellent investissement pour tout amateur de café. Je suis ravi de cet achat !

nice look and design, but limited functionality. - the machine retains a lot of coffee. need to shake it after each use, otherwise blocked completely after a few weeks. - button function "short press for 30 seconds, 2x short press for 60 seconds... etc) does not work. pressing results in random grinding time of 30s, 60s, or non stop. Useless! - adjustment of grinding coarseness is not ok for espresso. it covers all graduations from fine to very coarse, but the steps are too far apart. we have the very expensive filter coffee grinder and were looking for an espresso "specialist". now we have a super expensive filter coffe grinder and this comparably cheap gringer which also covers mostly filter grade grining, and espresso only very compromised. - for the costs of both machines we should have bought a really professional grinder, and not two chique useless decoration items. very dissatisfied.

Love the looks and the quality grinding it offers. The only negative thing is the time it needs to grind the x amount of beans. I tried from dark to light roast beans without any problems until now.

For some context, I like to brew coffee in multiple ways (espresso, pour-over, french press, etc) and do not want multiple grinders. I also did not want to pay anything more than about $250 for a grinder from a reputable brand. Prior to the Fellow I had a standard Baratza Encore (non-ESP) which was basically impossible to get a good grind for espresso on. Other issues I had with the baratza were its chute where grinds would come out, it would just constantly get clogged and oily which made it quite a high maintenance device. So now we arrive at the Fellow Opus. I had a hard time deciding between this and the Baratza Encore ESP, and now Baratza offers the ESP Pro which is a good competitor. I tried an ESP for a week, but the main thing that made me switch from Baratza was that the ESP uses the same chute design as the non-ESP and I hated how clogged and blocky my espresso came out on both machines. Pros: -The anti-static tech works wonders for me. With my Baratza, I would have to do a lot of WDT puck prep because all the espresso came out in blocks. I have had virtually 0 clumps in my espresso grinds on this machine. (pro-tip, you should still clean the contact points every few weeks to keep the anti-static tech working as intended) -Its pretty quiet for a grinder which I was actually really happy about since the Baratza is like a banshee in the morning by comparison. -The hopper cover is a great large dose cup for my drip coffee grinds, and it doubles as a bellows decently enough. -The grind cup and the espresso grinds insert are great, I never have a mess after grinding except for a few sprinkles. I have yet to come across any grinder at this price range that doesn't make at least a bit of a mess after grinding. -The Beanie App is your best friend for adjusting grind sizes using the inner ring! Micro-adjustments with the inner ring are not that hard, many reviews blast this mechanism WAAAAAY to much for the price of this machine. Yes, its not the most intuitive system, but its a single dose hopper. Once you realize your grind is too coarse/fine, its already empty and is easy to take off to adjust. Using Beanie and the same beans makes this easier because it means less adjusting once you find your grind size. -SOOOOO easy to clean, the baratza by comparison was a huge PITA to clean and it would just gather grinds in every darn corner of the chute. -Looks pretty nice for a grinder at this price point. Yes, its plastic and not metal, its an entry-level grinder.... -I find the grind timer button intuitive and simple. I like to do other coffee prep tasks while my stuff grinds, so having everything on a timer is nice. I never have to manually shut off the grinder. Recommend one press for espresso and two for pour-over/french press Cons: -The bottom plate where the dosing cup does scratch easily. I don't think its a huge deal as it mostly gathers really small scratches and even so, it wouldn't be hard to put some felt down if I cared more. Keep it clean of excess grounds and you'll be fine. -The hopper does sometimes catch a few beans. This happened in my Baratza as well, so no big deal to just run the grinder again for 5s to get the last few bits. -Inner adjustment ring is still not the most intuitive design, its NOT nearly as bad as I see so many reviews say for the reasons I put in my Pros section. (Use the Beanie app, it helps so much) -I have to knock the hopper 2-3 times with my hand to get any sticky grounds out. Not a big deal since I have had to do this with my Baratza even more cause of its chute design. Summary: I really love this grinder and think its a perfect entry-level grinder that can basically grind anything decently. Its a jack of all trades, master of none in particular. Especially when its on sale for around $150, I don't think there's as good a versatile grinder with this fine of an adjustment system on the market, including Baratza for all of its clogging issues.

Cansado de usar un molinillo manual que, aunque funcional, era inconsistente y tedioso, decidí probar el Fellow Opus, con el que no puedo estar más contento. Es muy fácil de usar: solo tienes que dar con el tamaño de molido idóneo para cada receta de café, y en cuanto lo consigues, obtienes unos cafés dignos de las mejores cafeterías. Cuenta con un ajuste rápido gracias a la corona exterior, con la que se puede llegar a conseguir con bastante precisión el tiempo ideal de extracción de tu cafetera. En mi caso, me resulta algo más complicado porque me gusta utilizar 10 g de café para obtener aproximadamente 30 g de producto y, como uso una canasta pequeña, cualquier variación del molido puede afectar a la cantidad de producto final. Aun así, las aproximaciones con el anillo general de molido son bastante precisas y, cuando se quiere afinar más, el molinillo cuenta con un microajuste interior con el que puedes regular cada paso en 10 micro pasos. El molinillo no es muy rápido, posiblemente tarde más que otros molinillos. Mis 10 g de café los devuelve molidos en 30 segundos, tiempo que aprovecho para ir preparando la taza, el portafiltros, etc. Lo bueno de ese molido a bajas revoluciones es que se consigue un resultado muy homogéneo, con todos los sabores y aromas, y lo más sorprendente, sin estática. Todo el molido cae al vaso de recogida; desde él lo pasas al portafiltros y no se queda nada de polvo en el vaso. Cuando el molinillo no se usa durante un tiempo, entra en modo standby, del que hay que despertarlo con un toque en el botón de molido. Al segundo toque comienza a moler durante 30 segundos, y podemos detenerlo con otro toque. También se pueden dar 2 o 3 toques desde el inicio para que, en vez de moler durante 30 segundos, lo haga durante 60, 90... Yo, en mi caso, siempre le doy un toque; muele durante 30 segundos y, si no noto un cambio importante en el sonido de la molienda, le doy otro toque para que termine, deteniéndolo cuando quiero con otro toquecito. El sonido es bastante contenido en comparación con otros molinillos, y la limpieza es muy sencilla porque genera muy poco polvo y el vaso queda prácticamente limpio al volcar el café en el portafiltros. Estéticamente, queda muy bien en la cocina. El vaso siempre se ajusta en su sitio con imanes, y lo único que hay que tener en cuenta es que, si quitamos el vaso y cae algún granito, puede rallarse la base de plástico al colocarlo nuevamente. Yo tengo bastante cuidado al hacerlo porque he visto reseñas de personas a las que les ha pasado, aunque a mí, de momento, se me mantiene como el primer día.
