I just retrofitted my basic hand crank mill with a 10mm nut, and drove it with a drill. It’s so much faster now, but I do wonder if there’s actual properly motorized versions of what I just did.

    The Hario burr grinder in the OP is not on the same level. The one I had was about $40, and was so slow to grind that the drill was a gigantic upgrade. It cost me $.50 in parts to use with a drill I already had, which was great for college me. Cost was the deciding factor.

      That’s cool then. I’m all for cost saving measures, especially for niche stuff like this which seems to always be overpriced.

      And yet the Skerton is still a terrible grinder. Not much better than a blade grinder. Too much boulders and dust. Grind uniformity is just plain bad.
