At 1600 rpm, this beast grinds my 22g beans in just 4 seconds. WOW !!.
If you have used anything less than a 64mm burr grinder, then you are in for a surprise. This grinder will open up the clarity in the flavor notes and completely change the taste of the espresso.
The retention is very low (around 0.1g) if you use the bellows and the stepless adjustment makes it very easy to dial in the coffee precisely. I have yet not faced any stalling issues but i usually don't cold start grinding the beans. even though i bought it with DLC espresso burrs, the quality of pour over and cold brew is also very high.
The grind is very consistent once the new burrs are seasoned. You will have to push through around 7kgs of coffee beans to season the burrs as they are bigger.
The best thing that i like about this grinder other than the 83mm burrs is the Variable RPM. Lowering the RPM reduces the complexity of the final espresso which will suit the pallet of new players who are getting into the coffee game. But i wouldn't recommend going any lower than 900.
If you are looking to up your coffee game then I highly recommend getting this Grinder.
I have been using a Timemore Chestnut C2 at home. The MHW-3BOMBER R3 is a big upgrade in terms of grind size adjustments and usability. The grind is very uniform and works even for espresso and that is quite a feat given the price. I have read that it punches well about its price and I believe it is true.
It was a really good investment and value for money.
As always love MHW3BOMBER products- definitely going to use its full potential and believe this M1 worth ever penny. And apart that I received minor scratch which I don’t know it’s done by custom or what while shipping. It is in that top wooden part of handle in the grinder.
Always amazed by the quality of product and special thanks to fix coffee for delivering MHW3BOMBER to us.
