- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

MODERATORS
find a good hand grinder. nothing really to go wrong on them especially if you get a sturdy metal one. ive had plastic ones break when dropped. still works fine tho.
I love my 1zpresso grinder. Great value for the price.
Do you think a hand coffee grinder (I would buy the kingrinder k6, as I want cheap) is a "buy for life" product? I never had one in my hand, but I would think that anything that "grinds" probably gets blunt in a few years, no?
Decent quality ones should at least last years. These grinders crush rather than cut. Should the burr get worse from too much prolonged use, some brands may allow part replacement. Though those would probably be a higher price.
The only thing that beats my 1zpresso is my Pietro and that's in a whole other price bracket. Highly recommend if you are into coffee though.
Damn I that looks sweet. Maybe if i ever got a ridiculous influx of cash i could waste.
