64mm SSP Unimodal V1 Brew Burrs + SSP Burr Naming (WHY???)

The 64mm SSP Unimodal V1 Brew Burr is one of the most interesting burr sets I have tried recently. They are incredibly clear/analytical and demand a fair bit from the user but once dialed in they taste amazing. However, for most folks, I think the V2/MP is the way to go as they are much more forgiving and often provide a tastier cup unless the V1s are perfectly dialed in. I talk about what exists in the 64mm burr size from SSP and then I compare SSP Unimodal V1 to V2.

tl;dw V1 is difficult to dial in but can be clearer than V2. At peak dialed in, V1 is clearer + sweeter than V2. V1 will also emphasize all of the mistakes you make and the defects in your coffee. For most situations, I think V2 is good enough and is much more forgiving. The actual clearness between the two burrs is very close but the V2 is slightly rounder.

These burrs are for sale and if you are interested in getting them please contact me! (BURRS ARE SOLD.)
