Nice!
I have the Cafesing Orca and the new Go versions.
I really do enjoy the ghost burr profile. The cafesing grinders are a little quirky, but the cup quality is nice!
@@braxtonjens7839 awesome! That is a great way to put it! It is a quirky grinder, but delicious cup!
Hi, a comparison with the zp6 could be interesting
That would be an interesting comparison.
I don’t have a zp6 yet but, if I do, that will be a video to make!
Question for you Trent! How do you like the Orca Go? I have considered picking up the Ghost Burr version for on the go action but I've heard of issues like build quality and slow grinder speed for the last 10% of beans being less than optimal for the overall experience. Also this Costa Rican you brewed sounds delicious!
I have really enjoyed the Orca Go Ghost Burr Model, I’ve been using it daily for pour-over since I got it.
The build quality has significantly improved over the original Orca G1 in my opinion. It feels really nice and like a more sturdy unit.
It is a noticeably slower feed rate than conical burr hand grinders and this is most noticeable with the last bit of beans.
I’d say it takes a solid 1:30- 2:00 to grind up a 15-20 gram dose. I haven’t had an issue with retention on this one, maybe .1 grams from some coffees.
The original Orca G1 did have retention.
The thing that bothers me the most is the catch cup feels short in my hand and with my long fingers I always feel like I’m about to drop it 😅
What I love about the grinder is the way it highlights fruity and bright notes in my pour-over brews, especially in light roast. I’ve enjoyed the overall experience with it so far. It is a great addition to my pour-over set up. I hope this helps! 🙌☕️
Also, that Costa Rica coffee is delicious! I’ve not had a Costa Rica like this one before!
Interesting. How do these ghost burrs this one compare to you kingrinder k6?
Great question, I’ve been planning a video comparison of the K6 and the Orca Ghost burr. The main differences I noticed are
1. K6 grinds quicker.
2. They both produce a good tasting cup of coffee, the ghost burrs just brighten the coffee a bit and highlight the fruity notes especially in a light roast.
The K6 is more diverse in grind size options, because it can grind all the down to espresso if needed. I hope this helps!
@@runningon.coffee Thank you. This grinder seems so conflicting. Some really like it and others just don't. Some say similar things to you like how it emphasizes fruit and florals, while others say it's muddier and not as good as the comandante style burr grinders like the K6 and k-ultra. Have you noticed any difference in grind quality by holding the grinder at different angles while you grind? Since it's a flat burr grinder I suspect that holding the grinder vertically so that the burrs are parallel with the floor would just cause the grinds to sit in the burrs and regrind until more grinds from the prebreaker push them out. Whereas tilting the grinder should help facilitate the grinds to fall through the burrs by gravity.
@@chahahc you are exactly right. I have noticed better grind quality when holding it at a slight angle. Holding it vertically does drastically slow down the grind time and causes a lot of fines which does give you a muddy and pour tasting brew.
I know compared to the K6 I would say it is on par with the quality, just highlights different notes.
I have never used a comadante so I don’t know how it would compare to that one, in my mind that is like top of the hand grinder line haha!
This is hilariously pretentious. The fact that you go through all this for 4 ounces of coffee is insane. And you obviously you don't know what cherry cola tastes like because there is no way that coffee smells ore tastes like it. Thanks for the laugh.
Hey thanks for checking out my video🙌☕️
