Baratza Sette 30 AP Espresso Grinder

Attractive design, easy to use, great results. Straight through flow of ground coffee through the burrs is great, making for easy cleaning. The machine is LOUD and that is only reason I've not given it a higher rating. It's not a huge issue if you're just grinding for an espresso shot, but it's nearly unbearable if grinding for pour overs or something. Maybe the noise is a function of the burr design?

Looked promising, but motor did not start. The reason for my poor review assessment of two stars is that Clive Coffee customer service could not be reached by phone (at all). Only option was email, which was answered by someone who never responded to what I actually described or asked for. Instead, s/he (the Clive service agent) took the easiest way to do no work and get rid of me: First (email), send me to videos (though I had already told him/her that I had checked those out). Second (email), tell me to go to Baratza. Third (email), ok, you can send it back to us. — which I will do. Why is Clive even a reseller??? Baratza should just sell these directly online, best would be via Amazon, so that the shipping back is smooth.

Consistent grind

Grind after grind consistently made. Loud when in use but only for the max of 10 seconds each use. This has offered a different experience to pour over, aero press and espresso.
