Product Information

The Fellow Ode coffee grinder makes consistent grinds for beautiful cups of coffee. The main challenge is paying attention to the grind size and being prepared to try different settings than the grind size chart suggests if necessary. That’s because its recommendations may be too coarse for pour-over. However, if you’re willing to experiment a little, you will soon find your perfect setting.

Updated Catch Cup- The catch cup is slightly bigger, given the larger hopper capacity. It is also now easier to pour out coffee grounds.Larger Hopper- The updated grinder has a larger 100g hopper, compared to the original 80g hopper. This is to cater to batch brews. The Fellow Ode has vertically-mounted 64mm flat stainless steel burrs that run on a PID-controlled motor. These burrs are impressive for a domestic grinder, as you’ll often find them in commercial grinders for espresso. Because burrs of this type are in the Fellow Ode – a grinder targeting the domestic market for filter brewing – it stands out from its rivals.

To solve this, add one or two drops of water to your bean, but it comes at the cost of reduced coffee retention, making you enjoy a well-grinded and nutritious coffee 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. Espresso brewed with Fellow Opus grinds tastes clean and bright. There are more than enough grind settings for coffee enthusiasts to brew different kinds of coffee, as well as dialing in espresso. The only downside is that the process of removing the hopper between every shot is annoying, and other grinders have more elegant solutions. ValueNevertheless, café sized flat burrs aren’t necessarily ideal for domestic coffee grinding. That’s because a more powerful motor with a higher RPM is often needed, which creates more heat and noise while grinding. Of course, this isn’t usually a problem in a commercial setting, but it’s not ideal for the home. Removing the hopper reveals a small metal handle to remove the upper burr for interior cleaning and maintenance – a small but thoughtful inclusion. Grinding Capability – 3.5/5

Inside Opus, there is a second inner adjustment ring. You can access the inner ring by removing the load bin. Use the inner ring to: Another design feature Fellow put a lot of thought into is the hopper lid. It doubles as a dosing cup with 20 g to 40 g compartments. You can also fill it to its maximum capacity of 110 g. The lid can be used as a bean measurement tool with a simple settings guide on the underside. This is especially handy for newbies, as it doesn’t require a scale.To calibrate Opus as the burrs wear down. With prolonged use, the burrs may start to output coarser grinds. To adjust for this, you can slowly shift the inner ring to a finer setting. Though the burrs are built to last for the lifetime of the product, burr wear is natural.
