Great addition for any coffee shop
Review by Chris -
Price Value Quality I purchased this grinder to use as my primary espresso grinder in my coffee shop. Between the stepless adjustment and the digital timer, this grinder is loaded with awesome features that will ensure you love it. Overall, it is very polished and well thought out. I honestly can't think of a single negative comment so far. I plan to use this for regular espresso until I can upgrade to the K10 fresh in which case this will make a more than adequate decaf grinder. I definitely plan to buy Compak in the future.
