A coffee grinder. Freshly grinded beans taste so different from normal preground coffee.

I have the cheapest manual grinder I could find in my local supermarket. It does the job

I've got a Fellow Opus so I can make espresso, as well as less fine ground coffee. It's quieter than other grinders I've used. I've also used a 1zpresso hand grinder and found it effective. Both are overkill for pour over or drip coffee

I mainly do drip and pour overs and have this Mr. Coffee blade grinder. It's not the most consistent grind but it's pretty good considering the price
