T64 Grinder From Bella Barista

Adrianmsmith P.s. don’t buy one I’m sure you will be disappointed 😞 then you’ll have to take them to court twice 😜😎

OK, I won’t. You’re probably right. 🤪

It does seem a shame that a firm go to all the bother of finding something just a little bit different in a crowded marketplace, arrange to have it tested, arrange for the recommendations to be implemented, then offer some of the first batch to forum members at a better pay price than to the general public, yet for some the focus seems to be bitching, whether warranted or not……

dfk41 then offer some of the first batch to forum members at a better pay price than to the general public

The bitching as you put it, is simply because BB failed to advertise their product accurately - either in the images or the specs. I don’t believe they are intending to mislead, but getting this stuff wrong is a bit amateurish and I’m surprised you think it’s a “shame” to mention it. Your’e generally one of the first to call out misleading reviews but here you are cutting BB slack despite them being a bit sloppy on this one. You must be getting soft in your old age! 😉

Not sure what better price you are referring to -it’s been £459 for everybody, forum or public since it was announced as far as I know.

No it’s was £559 originally and you had a discount code to get it to £459

They have since opened that price up to everyone, as they said they would the first 20 were to get the code from my reading

Don’t think you can now.

The niche was totally different at the time and imo very competitively priced.

Now if you want a good 64mm you’re over a grand for a zerno or lagom p64

If you want bigger burrs that gets even crazier.

I personally don’t like the rate the 64mm grinders are getting pushed out. Ten a penny comes to mind, and most are fugly

Only one I quite like is the df64v, but they stall app.

Cuprajake No it’s was £559 originally and you had a discount code to get it to £459

I don’t think it has ever been for sale at £559 though. The initial offer on here was described as a £100 discount for the forum - and then from 25 March it would be offered to the public with a £75 discount.

However that’s not how things have played out - it’s only been offered at one price - £459 to everyone. This may be an introductory offer and it may go up to £559 at some point - only time will tell…

As above it was £549 as I took was looking at it

MediumRoastSteam But on Saturday, 23rd March, I checked the website and BB have lowered the price to £459 to the general public, appearing to have given up on the initial promotional strategy and opening the offer of £459 to everyone.

Thanks for correcting me, didn’t know that and was thrown by the email that was posted earlier showing BB as describing £459 as the “special launch price”. I simply took that at face value - didn’t appreciate that they launched earlier at a higher price and then relaunched at a lower price a few days later. Unfortunate for any poor enthusiastic early pre-orders.

delta76 Not sure why the debate of price comes from. I’m seeing 382.5 GBP which means no VAT (+20% and it’s 459). No indication of sale price whatsoever

This is what you see if you are in the UK:

dutchy101 - it looks really good I have to say. It’s in my basket 🤪

But I already have a Niche Duo so it would be an indulgence rather than a requirement. I’ve been very good in keeping away from the “buy” button, and would be delighted to hear how you get on. 👍

Adrianmsmith I’d paid more attention to some comments by @DavecUK on other threads with the key word in the sentence

Yep. He’s been saying that for a while. You definitely need to keep up with what really matters! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍 - and that’s key. 😘🤪

MediumRoastSteam haha yeh!!!

The good news is there’s a Niche product in a Prime position to play with as well.

If all else fails the 1zpresso j ultra is all anyone really needs for espresso. ☕

Adrianmsmith Ffs do you not have a brain.

You know what’s getting really boring? Your attitude.
