Refurbished Italian-made Rossi espresso grinder originally from a local cafe. Setting the stage for the espresso machine which will tap into the sink using a copper line and filtration system.
Me and a based friend got espresso makers the same week and had the talk about how it's not gay, it's just effective caffeine delivery. May it power many good White People things.
I want an electric ceramic burr grinder. There used to be available a hand-crank ceramic burr grinder made by some Americans. It was always sold out but the company went tits up.
Have you ever used a ceramic burr grinder? I swear I taste a difference when the burrs are steel, however cool the steel stays. I wore out my elbows with a hario manual grinder. Using a very large expensive spice grinder at the momento.
I have one of these. Flawless performance for 12-13 years. My only complaint is the little plastic tab under the ground coffee container that's supposed to hold it in place has lost its flexibility and the container creeps out because of the vibration. I just set a cup against it, so not a big deal.

That tab is supposed to stick up enough to nestle into the depression in the bottom of the grounds holder. What if you put a drop of (super?)glue on the top of that tab to build it higher again? More drops if one isn't enough.
Or maybe carefully use a hair dryer to heat it enough so you could bend it into a higher position again.

I like your idea about super glue. Thanks. It's really not much of an issue. I'm so used to plopping my coffee cup in front of it while it's running that I don't even think about it anymore.

Regarding municipal tap water, I’m even more concerned with the atrazine. This estrogenic endocrine disrupter has been found in high amounts in every lake, river, and stream.

They make them with ceramic burrs too, but the 40mm Conical Steel burrs have worked great for me for years. $150 at the most.

Idk if it matters to you but water filters don't remove the flouride in your drinking water if your not on a well.
Maybe the coffee will hide the taste? Maybe buy a gallon of spring water from the grocery store?
