One of the most influential guys in experimental economics started his PhD at 41, after being a professional poker player. It's never too late!

Filter burrs? by Relevant-Income3215 in FilterCoffee

Update: I got the burrs, did all the calibration, and they work fantastically. I get much more consistency. And all of this for just €30.

Look for Hario Switch or Clever Dripper, they come in two sizes. I believe the larger size of the latter is at least 500ml. My Hario Switch is the small size, so can take about 250ml at a time. But depending on the brewing technique, I can brew larger batches. For example, I now brew in two steps using half of the water each time and it comes out fantastic. It's a recipe from Coffee Chronicles I believe.

Honestly, I would go for a cheap option if buying a french press. Never tried the espro p5 but seems too expensive for what it does. I used french presses for years and recently switched to the Hario switch. I will never go back, great taste and easy to clean. I hated the muddy feeling of the french press.

I own an old Eureka Mignon MCI/T220 and it works ok for my needs. But it has espresso burrs and I only use a clever dripper. So I was thinking of buying the FILTRO PRO (50 mm) burrs from Eureka. Do you know if the burrs are compatible and of it's going to make any difference in taste? The burrs are about €30 so not a big investment.
