We’ve taken a First Look at the MHW‑3Bomber F74 Navigator, a grinder that has specialty coffee enthusiasts buzzing. With 74 mm titanium‑coated burrs, a 400 watt brushless motor, variable RPM control, and ultra‑low retention, it promises espresso‑level precision and pour‑over clarity at a surprisingly accessible price. Could this be the prosumer grinder that changes the game?

Hola Fediverse. You know I love sharing with you my insider, deep dive, behind the scenes stuff about what goes on with coffee and espresso we test at CoffeeGeek. I spent two full days with the Mazzer Philos production unit grinder now, and here's my condensed notes from the last two days of testing.
Sidenote: when I see the Philos, it's as if coffee nerds kept showing Mazzer the Zerno Z1 and similar grinders from cottage industry makers, and Mazzer says "hold my beer".

I swear I’m getting better at this.
Gutamalan FSJM green beans from #NossaFamilia in Portland. Air roasted yesterday on an air frier tray in my oven for 12 minutes (preheated oven to 425F)
23 grams in, 58mm basket, 20 secs, 48 grams out (so a little fast).
But loooook. I managed a light roast!

Fresh up on CoffeeGeek this AM:
The Turin DF64 Gen 2 Single Dose Grinder seems to answer all the quibbles and issues people had with the original DF64. Is it finally the real deal "Niche Killer"?

Fresh from my studio today - the new OXO 12 Cup Brewer with single serve system. It's a heavyweight.
This is OXO's answer to Breville's Precision Brewer. And while they are similar prices, the OXO doesn't have as many features as the Breville. Still, the final proof is in the cup; we're testing this soon!

An authentic "iced espresso" is perhaps one of the trickiest iced coffee drinks to make, because you
a) want to minimize dilution as much as possible,
b) "shocking" the tiny drink cold too quick can result in excessive bitters.We have the guide.

Arrived today - the surprising (in a very good way), Turin Grinder SK40 model. It's hard to believe this all metal, 40mm conical burr, single dose, bellows equipped, torque-ey, quiet grinder is around $200. It's smaller than I thought too - pictured next to the diminutive Lagom Mini for comparison.
We're doing a feature on $200 grinders this fall on CoffeeGeek. Both the SD40 and SK40 from Turin are in that matchup.

Just a work of art.
Time More is becoming a major player in several niche areas of specialty coffee, and their grinders are rapidly becoming the industry leaders, in features, design, quality of build, ease of use, and price. They just keep improving the Chestnut C series; the latest is the Chestnut C3S Pro model. Featuring the
"spike to cut" in-house designed 38mm burrset. Even the handle is amazing. And that colour!#timemore #chestnut3cs #coffeegrinder #timemorec3s #coffee #coffeegeek
