Inside the Kinu M47 Simplicity lies the same, precise burr grinder as the Kinu Classic. It also has the same innovative thumb stopper and the easy to fill, top loading hopper. It’s also lighter, weighing in at 1.65kg, about 200g lighter than the classic. So what’s the difference between them?
- The hopper uses a food safe, ABS plastic instead of stainless steel
- The basin where the grounds are kept uses the same ABS plastic instead of stainless steel
- Instead of magnets holding the basin in, a silicone O-ring holds it in place with an air-tight fit
