Introduction
This video compares three coffee grinders—the Lagom Casa 65mm, the 1Zpresso ZP6 48mm, and the EK43—for pour-over coffee brewing. The speaker aims to determine the differences in taste and brew time produced by each grinder.
Key Takeaways
Lagom Casa 65mm: Produces a coffee with more body and a noticeable jasmine flavor, brew time around 3 minutes. Grind size was considered slightly too fine initially.
1Zpresso ZP6 48mm: Yields a cleaner, brighter, and more juicy cup with a prominent pineapple taste; brew time around 4 minutes and 5 seconds. The 5.5 grind setting was deemed suitable.
EK43: Produces the lightest and cleanest cup with a strong tropical pineapple essence, fastest brew time.
Grind Size and Seasoning: The Lagom Casa's grind size needed adjustment, and its performance improved with seasoning (grinding a significant amount of beans). The ZP6 produced less fines.
Overall: All three grinders produced excellent pour-over coffee, but each offered a distinct flavor profile. The choice depends on personal preference regarding body and clarity of taste. The video also touches on the price differences and discusses the Lagom Casa as a potentially excellent second grinder for those already owning a flat burr grinder.
