Good product, excellent price point, and 500g capacity is the "sweet spot". Would have loved to see OFFICIAL support for HiBean! app (even though it works, the manufacturer does not support it), and a handle that can be attached to the bean cooling tray. Other than that, this is a great machine!
I would give it a 5 Star rating but the “red” is more of an orange. Disappointed in the color but the grinder itself is awesome. After a few weeks of use I’ve found I don’t even need my WDT tool anymore. Super easy to dial in shots as well. I experiment a lot with different beans from different roasters. I’ll probably end up painting my grinder at some point in the future.
So far I have roasted 4 batches with the M1 Lite, and I'm very pleased. I have been roasting 6.4 oz / 181 grams for years, so the size matches my needs. Using Artisan on Linux, and all works perfectly. As for the sale, I received shipping info 3 days after I ordered, and it was delivered 8 days from order. Good experience.
Great shipping. Product as advertised.
