Both grinders are single dose models, promoting minimal retention with less than 0.1g, and feature automatic and manual dosing methods to enhance user convenience.

Both grinders boast extensive grind ranges, accommodating everything from pour-over to espresso and even Turkish coffee in the case of the Lagom P100.
