MrSmith, the price probably has some relation to the quality I suspect. I drink filter coffee because cheap filter coffee is more pleasant than expensive instant. I won’t bore you with my first world budget issues but a quick look at Hasbean would suggest a tripling of the cost for their cheapest beans. That presumes I am grinding the beans with my teeth as well! 🙂
Would love to treat myself but any kind of non-instant is already a treat.
That said, if I were to free up some cash I would need a grinder that was as silent as possible. Not risking waking the kids on my early departure so, hand grinder? Do you grind in batches of a few days worth or as required?
In which case, what grinder for a novice coffee drinker with silence as a priority?
Edit- cyve, got a filter (with a hot plate) already but that also thing had caught my eye and needed to save space anyway.
