The entry level Baratza Encore model is great for filter, aeropress and cafetiere brewing.

The Baratza Virtuoso + is a big setup up from the Baratza Encore coffee grinder and replaces the original Baratza Virtuoso grinder.
The Baratza Encore is a really great entry-level grinder but the Virtuoso plus builds on an already excellent set of features is built with more robust components.
These are some of the key advantages of the Baratza Virtuoso +:
40mm conical burs
Grind size from 200-1200 microns, slightly finer than the Encore
Suitable for all brew methods including cafetiere, filter, aeropress and espresso
Digital timer on the front display
Slow 550rpm motor to keep coffee cool and to avoid excess heat
Faster than the Encore but still maintaining a low speed
The grind adjustment on the Virtuoso + features 40 numbered steps making it very easy to return to a previous grind setting. If, for example, you've found your perfect grind setting for cafetiere you can then return to this setting very easily after brewing for a different coffee-making method.
I picked the Commandante after looking up a lot of online reviews - is £200 for a hand grinder worth it, if a decent electric grinder is available for less? Well, I don't have space for an electric, nor need to prep that much coffee at one go, but I do want to get the most out of good beans, and to know that cup to cup will be the same. The Comandante is hefty, and the idea of counting the clicks as you loosen from the tightest setting available means I can switch from aeropress to V60 and keep consistency. It looks gorgeous, though is a bit hard to grip and keep steady while grinding - not enough that I fear any of the parts will loosen. My coffee definitely tastes better, and I can confidently alter the grind if a new batch tastes too sour or bitter. Lovely prompt delivery from Horsham as well, thanks folks.
Top coffee and highly efficient service in all respects
Tremendous selection of fantastic coffee with lots of options. Very efficient pick, pack and dispatch is in place so I am very pleased with the overall service an quality !
