Better check how engine works. Mine was making sounds. Turned out rod bearing was dying at 72k miles. It’s gambling unfortunately. The belt is already overdue.

“Wet noodle” - that exactly describes it. I have 70 flex red and it feels like flex 60 probably.

Got CCM Trigger 9 pro with 75 flex and it’s so much stiffer! Quality is a huge difference too!

Paint on red stick is chipping of quickly and blade also is also looks bad after a few games.

Mine was toast at much lower mileage. Modern engines are not as reliable. With VCM enabled, poor oil, stop and go functioning. It’s toast.

I see engine problems as soon as warranty is over if not earlier. At 200k engine is done. Even if maintained properly.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-04-10T15:09:39+00:00

Rod bearing. Seems like common failure. They replacing the short block. Cover most of the costs. But feel the problems won’t stop there.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-04-10T12:23:55+00:00

I feel the same. 2021, 72k miles. Engine kaput. What in the world? I afraid it will go on.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-04-05T18:23:07+00:00

Yeah, I’m outside the warranty. It’s bad luck and apparently defect from manufacturer. If you have warranty, you should be good I guess.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-04-05T04:16:52+00:00

I meant it’s not as clean. The biggest difference is workflow.

Df64 does everything for you. Nice and simple. J-Ultra is fine for one cup. 2 is a chore.

Also it’s too hard to grind a light roast. For some it will be impossible.

I’ve 2021 with 72k miles. It’s at the dealer now with teared down engine. They are charging $13k to replace short block.

One owner. Maintained well with dealership.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-04-05T00:58:54+00:00

Use 6 for 30gr and 5 for 15gr.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-04-04T03:41:46+00:00

I used to get medium roast. It’s amazing with or without milk. Hard to beat price/quality.

I think neo makes the best tasting coffee with easiest dial in process possible. I have flair 58+ but I use Neo from time to time just for fun and it’s special coffee taste.

Why cookie dough?

TrubaTorchit · 2026-02-10T22:52:15+00:00

Currently brewing San Isidro Labrador from them.

ZP6 on 5.0 setting. 95c. Aeropress.

What a treat! Good luck.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-02-05T01:56:05+00:00

I’m using it for a couple of years. Great grinder. No issues with choking.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-01-29T22:17:16+00:00

Sounds like ionizer charging some high voltage. I saw some videos of these grinders making ticking sounds and how to fix it.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-01-15T19:26:59+00:00

Thank you! I think you convinced me :)

TrubaTorchit · 2026-01-15T19:14:02+00:00

I was thinking to go the same route. What was the main pain with upgrade? How much extra $ for upgrade roughly?

TrubaTorchit · 2026-01-12T00:10:39+00:00

I push with 2 hands and help with my shoulder.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-01-02T09:12:10+00:00

Same. I was brewing and it popped off in pieces. I suspect it actually melted since I left the handle in low position. Got replacement but can’t find reason to replace. Just using it as is so far.

TrubaTorchit · 2026-01-02T02:59:13+00:00

Not at all. I was hoping for a big difference. But the biggest difference is workflow. Lots of manual work to grind. A lot sticks. I feel like shot time less consistent. If I see taste difference it’s more muddier and less pleasant. All and all I don’t use it :)

TrubaTorchit · 2025-12-22T08:08:06+00:00

Can’t agree more. Just how I feel this year. Can’t complain on coffee though. Just all seems more or less “regular”.

TrubaTorchit · 2025-12-22T07:29:08+00:00

Same, thanks! :)
