I have two - one for work and one for home.
It's not that much worse than Vittoria or Lavazza, both of which are quite expensive for the quality I reckon.Picked up 500g Lazzio Grind from Aldi for about $6.
Not bad value.
Exactly my thoughts. 3 x the price for those brands. I'm not a good enough coffee snob to know the difference.It's not that much worse than Vittoria or Lavazza, both of which are quite expensive for the quality I reckon.
Hey - instant are properly roasted too! Just really really dark and then freeze driedI never drank coffee until I started in a Government job where drinking coffee is the first thing everyone in the office does.
I still can't tell the difference between instant and proper roasted beans but I can definitely taste when they burn the coffee.
It’s roasted in Sydney by a batch roaster - much fresher than lavazza/Vittoria. They actually buy decent green beans to start withIt's not that much worse than Vittoria or Lavazza, both of which are quite expensive for the quality I reckon.
The bags that I have said say roasted in Melbourne on them.It’s roasted in Sydney by a batch roaster - much fresher than lavazza/Vittoria. They actually buy decent green beans to start with

Must have changed ... as long as they’re doing a good job that’s all that counts. Using fresh whole bean coffee and grinding it on demand beats instant/ore ground/pod by light yearsThe bags that I have said say roasted in Melbourne on them.

Try for a ratio of 12g it coffee to 200g hot water brewed for 90sec. If it’s too weak, add another gram of coffee, if you want more beverage add another gram coffee and 20g waterA couple of weeks back I bought an aeropress and an electric grinder. Still getting used to it but it's a pretty simple system. I just find it doesn't make enough. I'm also a temperature wuss so I end up having to add plenty of water to it and I'm sure that just dilutes the flavour.
Whatever you spend on a manual grinder, it will be as good as an electric grinder 5 times the price.Anyone have any suggestions for a reasonable coffee grinder? (electric or manual, doesn't matter)
Hoping to spend no more than $100, if possible.
Any electric grinder you'll get for under $100 will be rubbish, so I'd probably stick with a manual. For that price, you can't go wrong with the Hario Skerton Ceramic:Anyone have any suggestions for a reasonable coffee grinder? (electric or manual, doesn't matter)

I'd actually discourage someone from buying a more expensive manual grinder - the bang-for-your-buck from the Hario is exceptional.

Like?There are plenty of better places to spend that money if you want to improve the quality of your home coffee.
I can give you a lesson in 10 seconds. Chuck 15g or coffee in your aeropress, 200g hot water, give it a stir and push out after 80 secondsFor most people? Lessons.
Telling your average home coffee maker that they need to obsess to the nth degree over grind consistency is like saying MAMILs should fret over which carbon fibre rims will save them 100g.
Don't tell people they need to spend a fortune on unnecessary equipment.
