I bust out a drill with a 7 mm nut setter.

Works like a charm. I give the trigger the lightest squeeze and I can grind my coffee in ยฝ the time with โ…’ the effort.

Just chew the beans and then pour boiling water in your mouth to make the coffee as you drink it. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

"How fresh do you like your coffee?"

"Allow me to demonstrate..."

I did that for a while but eventually I bent the rod, slightly, and the consistency went to shit. Make sure you keep that drill level!

I'll probably end up splurging on an electric model early next year. I just got this little hand-powered burr grinder on the cheap earlier this year while I was making sure that fresh-grinding my morning coffee was something I wanted to implement into my routine long-term. That said, this little guy is really convenient to take into the office so yeah, I'm doing my best to be extra careful with it.

Still, some mornings are just really tough. So I do what I must to get my fix.

Sounds like a reason to set up a drill press in the kitchen

I've done the exact same thing!

Same until the wife told me to take the drill out of the kitchen ๐Ÿ˜”

So I bought an electric one

Where did you buy your electric wife?

[-] spicytuna62@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I have a special 12" wide cabinet/countertop next to the fridge, which my wife has designated as my coffee area. As long as I don't intrude on the rest of the kitchen with it, she's cool with it lol
