I got lazy over time with storing the beans in an airtight container and precisely measuring the grind weight for my pour over. On my breville I store my beans in the hoper and it has a grind time feature. Since I make the same amount of coffee every morning I have it set to 12.3 seconds which gets me pretty close to the same ground weight I need. I can adjust the shot size to accommodate different grind times
It solves my problem where I can't think in the morning w/o coffee but I need to think to make coffee.

I've had mine since last fall and it's been working very well. edit: oh yeah it was $200 back then, so this is a decent discount.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I've had a Baratza Encore for a couple of years now and it has been underwhelming for my purpose (daily pour-overs). The grind is very inconsistent and produces tons of fines as well as large chunks of beans. It's super loud and takes around 2 minutes to grind 64g of coffee, which is about what I could do with my old Hario hand grinder. Everyone tells me I should upgrade the burr, but I think I'm ready to move on and just try a new grinder.
