In this video, we’re diving into a long-awaited comparison of the most recent 1Zpresso Grinder range. Shop 1Zpresso: alternativebrewing.com.au/col...
1Zpresso has come a long way with so many adaptations and models. Over time, they've refined each series into what I'd confidently call the Ultra series today. In front of me, we have the Q-Air, the X-Ultra, the ZP6 Special, along with the K and J Ultra.
Truly, there is something for everyone in this 1Zpresso range.

Hey Josh, another banger of a video, really breaking down the range of these grinders well. I'm currently evaluating three of 1Zrpesso's grinders myself, (X, J, K ultras), and I thought I knew just about everything about the grinders after a month of testing, but still learned just a tad more from your video, so thanks for sharing.

@@AlternativeBrewing Hi Josh. I never worked for Vince or 49th Parallel; for a time, I used their coffee as our "standard" coffee for equipment reviews and tests on CoffeeGeek, but that was it. I did help Sammy Piccolo with his World Barista Championship training, did interact a lot with Vince when he owned Caffe Artigiano and 49th Parallel, but no actual working for him ;) Pretty cool you worked at Matchstick. Was that around the time Aaron was still a co-owner? Loved that shop when it first opened up at Fraser and Kingsway. I had a secret drink on the menu too at Matchstick, that only I ordered: a "half and half". They brewed me a double shot, split into two cups, and made one a macchiato. 😄

Great review/testing! Love the authenticity and honesty. 👍✨ I have the ZP6, K-Ultra, J-Ultra, E-Pro, and the first precursor to the current Q series. I've not done a cross product shootout like you have but can confirm general trend/sentiment for ZP6 having great clarity and less body for filter brew coffee with J-Ultra having far more texture and body for espresso. I've not gotten the J-Ultra to produce filter brews that I enjoy.

I do like zp6 for cupping, but keep in mind that cupping is steep coffee not drip coffee, cupping is not how you get the best out of the zp6 Also in a future video you might try the grinders with classic espresso, and lighter roast, the grinders shine different with different roast profiles. Also the grindsize chart you made, unfortunatly the the first step of the grinder is not one step size, it has somthing to do with the angles and finishing teeth and stuff like that, if you kruve sift the different burrs you'll se a different "start size" especially on the zp6 where ist obvious that 1 or 2 clicks as you used dosnt give you 44 micron particles 😅 The best thing i got from this video were that zp6 turbos might be worth exploring and that after their manufacturing difficulties x-ultra has become super capable. Very nice! Also the q-air is more than a beginner grinder, its the perfect backpack grinder, and can make great high dose picopresso espresso and it fits in the aeropress 😊 I really like the last part where you praised what 1zpresso has become, I love how they Arent just copies bun innovations compaired to earlier brands

Thanks so much 🙌 Great advise and points you've made. More work to really find the sweet spot on all these grinders - certainly not an indication on their capabilities - though the results were the results - I'll aim to fine tune the test to be closer to an accurate comparison. Was super impressed with the X-Ultra! J and K Ultra are very similar to the J & K Max - and the Q-Air 100% agree.

ZP6 is known to be hard to master, and there seems to a very big difference between new and seasoned. Also, there's a sweet spot for ZP6 which is about 10 clicks coarser from the suggested range from 1zpresso

Why would you "aim" for 22-24 secs on an 18 grams in/36 grams out espresso shot? Do you like under extracted shots? Or are you trying to avoid the grinders' espresso limitations?
@AlternativeBrewing
@AlternativeBrewing Месяц назад
Which shot are you referring to ? The ZP6 was incredibly difficult to get the fineness for this flow rate, same for the Q-Air
@space.youtube
@space.youtube Месяц назад
@@AlternativeBrewingThat's kind of my point, if some of the grinders can't grind fine enough to pull a more conventional shot, say 28-30 seconds, then that should be noted. I don't see the point in picking parameters that every grinder can achieve when said parameters may not be fit for the purpose of pulling conventional espresso shots with your chosen bean. That you structured this comparison in the terms you did rendered the taste test completely useless, unless you're trying to establish which grinder produces the least offensive under extracted shot. I would have created a dialled in baseline with my go to (electric) espresso grinder, then compared which hand grinder comes closest to replicating it. If some of the grinders can't, then so be it. Surely that's the information that's relevant to anyone considering them for espresso shots? Having said all that, kudos to you. The effort you make is obvious, and it's appreciated. 👍
