Machine Overview

The Option-O Lagom P64 is positioned as an advanced semi-automatic grinder, priced at $1,585, while the Kingrinder K6 serves as a more accessible manual grinder for intermediate users, with an MSRP of $129. This significant price disparity reflects both the complexity and capabilities of the Lagom P64 compared to the straightforward design of the K6. The brand reputation and intended skill level of each grinder provide insight into their target market, with the Lagom appealing to serious enthusiasts and professionals, while the Kingrinder caters to those looking for quality at a bargain.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, the Lagom P64 employs a flat burr grinding method with a significant burr diameter of 64 mm, while the K6 uses a conical burr design with a smaller 48 mm diameter. The Lagom features a stepless adjustment system allowing for precise changes at a micron scale, whereas the K6 offers a stepped adjustment system with a coarser 16 micron scale. Both grinders utilize a single dose hopper type, which minimizes stale coffee and ensures fresh grounds for each session. This difference in adjustment styles directly affects the user experience—stepless offers extreme precision, while stepped is simpler and often quicker for general use.

Features Comparison

In terms of features, the Lagom P64 boasts adjustable RPM from 300 to 1400, providing versatility for different grind requirements and ensuring optimal flavor extraction across a full range of brew methods. It also supports swappable burrs, allowing users to customize their grinding experience further. The Kingrinder K6, while lacking adjustable RPM and burr swapping, delivers an impressive espresso grind speed of 60g in 18 seconds, which is notable for a manual grinder. Both grinders have a specified grind range from pour-over to espresso, making them suitable for various brewing methods despite their differing capabilities.
