EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Option-O Remi is priced at $230 and is aimed at intermediate users, making it a more budget-friendly choice for those looking to hone their espresso-making skills. In contrast, the Bentwood Vertical 63 is significantly more expensive at $2,695 and targets advanced users, reflecting its high-end features and performance. Both grinders cater to different market segments and levels of expertise, providing options for a broader range of consumers.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding specifications, the Option-O Remi utilizes a 38mm conical burr made from TiN-coated material, activated by a hand crank, which allows for manual control over the grinding process. It features a single-dose hopper and a primary dosing method that is manual, providing a distinct hands-on experience. On the other hand, the Bentwood Vertical 63 is equipped with a 63mm flat burr made from Bentwood Special Steel and is activated by a button, allowing for timed dosing, which may appeal to users who prefer a more automated approach. Both grinders offer stepless adjustment with a fine scale to customize the grind size precisely, making them versatile for a range of brewing methods.

Features Comparison

When comparing features, the Option-O Remi has swappable burrs, allowing users to customize their grind further, while the Bentwood Vertical 63 does not have this capability. The grind range of the Remi spans from French Press to Espresso, whereas the Vertical 63 has a more extensive range suitable for both pour-over and espresso. Another notable difference is that the Bentwood model operates at a fixed 1400 RPM, while the Option-O Remi lacks adjustable RPM settings, emphasizing the manual aspect of the grinding process.
