After purchasing my first grinder a few months back from a café (used Mazzer Super Jolly) I was somewhat happy with it. The burrs looked alright but it was a bit slow (I think, I didn’t have anything to compare it to) and it made alright espresso (still an ongoing journey with my La Pavoni Lever), but I have decided to buy some new burrs.
I ordered some original Mazzer burrs from Bella Barista today, but just now I received an email saying that they were unfortunately out of stock and it may be a while till they have some…
So now I’m pondering whether I should just buy some generic ones instead. From Bella Barista it cost me around £38 with delivery, I think some generic ones I can get for only around £18. For reference my grinder only cost me £40…
Does anyone have any experience from going from a generic to original burrs, is it a large difference? For reference I only make 1 espresso a day.
