It’s pretty expensive. If you’ve got a tight budget for your coffee grinder, it will likely not fit into it. Burrs: The Ode Gen 2 comes with the Ode Gen 2 burrs installed. The Gen 2 burrs have increased extraction from light-roasted coffees. the grind range is from 250 microns and higher. The Gen 1 burrs are 550 microns and higher. New Internal Hopper Design: The internal design of the bean hopper is designed to allow a better flow of whole beans into the grinding chamber.

Note: r/coffee would not let me post there. He doesn't believe r/coffee should be a place to discuss coffee. Since this review does cross over into the grinder's application for espresso I figured I would comment here. Although this post clearly fits under their sidebar as stated: Measurements were done with Jonathan Gagne's app, pictures taken with a DSLR, and lens correction applied with Photoshop. Note that these densities are weighted by the grind size assuming mass proportional to volume, same as the grind size app. So it's not the number of particles of a particular size but rather the mass of the coffee found in grounds of that size. Used the same numbers/formulas as that app so these measurements aren't without their caveats. However I think the relative comparisons are still useful.

What I find a bit weird about this is that the Ode @ 7,2 brews similar to Comandante @ 24 but those grind sizes are clearly different. If the Comandante has far fewer fines I can see how you'd get similar/better extractions at smaller grind sizes without astringency but the data doesn't make it seem like the Comandante's doing significantly better in that regard. It also seems like the Ode is a bit more uniform at smaller grind sizes, but the Comandante's better as you go bigger. Qualitatively the grounds seem this way too.

The Fellow Ode Brew Grinder is an undeniably brilliant grinder straight out of the box. Killer looks, plenty of quirky features and great grind quality make this grinder perfect for any serious filter coffee connoisseur. Fellow spent two years in development to bring you the next generation of the Fellow Ode Grinder. From the finest pour-overs to the coarsest cold brews, your coffee will never be the same again. Anti-static technology, which helps to reduce the static from freshly ground coffee. This reduces the retention of coffee grounds in the grinder from ~1g to as low as 0.1g, so there is much less grind mess than the original Ode Brew Grinder.Anti-Static Technology- The Gen 2 has new anti-static technology included in the grind chute to reduce retention and make it a lot cleaner to grind with.
