I've been a coffee "nerd" for years, but never managed to get those coffees with fruity notes people were talking about. I've had an entry-level (by this sub's standards) electric burr grinder for going on 6 years now, and my aeropress coffee was (in my opinion) superior to most coffee places I visited, but I always felt like there was further it could go when compared to aeropress cups I'd ordered from nice places.

For Christmas I was gifted a commonly-recommended grinder in this sub for around $120 and it is genuinely like night and day. It isn't as noticeable in darker roasts but my light roasts have taken on a whole new level of flavor they just did not have before. I have changed nothing else about the same recipe I have made for years besides the new grinder.
