Machine Overview

The Kingrinder K2, priced at $79, is positioned as a beginner-friendly manual grinder, while the Option-O Lagom P64 is an advanced semi-automatic grinder with a significantly higher price tag of $1585. This pricing reflects the different skill levels they target, with the K2 catering to novices and the Lagom P64 suited for seasoned enthusiasts who may seek a higher level of precision and quality in their espresso-making process.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, the Kingrinder K2 utilizes a conical burr grinding method with a 48mm steel burr, featuring a stepped adjustment for grind size and a single-dose hopper. The grind range is versatile, allowing for full settings from pour over to espresso, with an adjustment scale of 18 microns and a retention of less than 0.2 grams. Conversely, the Lagom P64 employs a flat burr grinding system with a larger 64mm coated steel burr, supporting a stepless adjustment mechanism and also utilizing a single-dose hopper. Its grind range is similarly comprehensive, optimized for both pour over and espresso, with a finer adjustment scale of 1 micron and an impressive retention of less than 0.1 grams.

Features Comparison

Key features further distinguish these grinders. The Kingrinder K2 does not list adjustable RPM or swappable burrs, which might limit customization and flexibility for advanced users. In contrast, the Lagom P64 offers adjustable RPM ranging from 300 to 1400, swappable burrs for enhanced adaptability, and an espresso grind speed of 9 seconds for 18 grams, making it highly efficient for rapid coffee preparation. Both models maintain a grind range suited for diverse brew methods, but the advanced features of the Lagom P64 make it far more suitable for espresso aficionados seeking precision.
