Ceado Life X Coffee Grinder

Great little grinder. Love the pop of color. Ceado has nailed having the grinds shoot out in a clean stream to the portafilter. Love watching it. The all plastic body leaves a bit to be desired in the finish department. The plastic panels dont fit super tight.

Solid, low key high performer

I’m happy with the Life X. It’s a solid, weighty build in a compact brick-like shape. I like the simplicity of the form, it’s a low key workhorse. The Moka color works well with my Fellow ES1 color, too. I specifically wanted a grinder with a bean hopper, but have used the single dose kit to grind decaf. I also used single doses when dialing in. Once dialed in, the grinder generates fluffy grinds with consistent quantities after setting the time (for the coffee I’m using a 13. 4 second grind yields 18g, with . 1-. 2g). The controls are simple and easy to use: it’s easy to adjust the time for the presets, and the manual grind button can be configured to touch-to-start/second-touch-to-stop or press-and-hold-to-grind, release to stop. You can easily pause and resume a preset grind if needed. My initially delivered grinder was damaged in transit; WLL shipped a second unit quickly and the return process was easy.

Great grinder for the price point. Well built machine
