Hi everyone,
I'm currently looking to replace my Breville BCG450XL (which I don't like, but paid 40$ for it...). Found here topics about the Baratza Encore. Anyone is using it ? Is is worth the upgrade from the Breville ? Any other recommandations for the same price (around 125$us) ?

I'm planning to upgrade to the Baratza Preciso. The Virtuoso is a very good all around grinder (French press, Aeropress...) but for espresso It is limited. It all depends on what kind of coffee you drink. Seatle Coffee Gear web site have great reviews on all Baratza's products.
