I got another baratza encore for my office so I could make good coffee for myself and a few coworkers. I have an encore at home and have had a great experience with it. However, my new grinder at the office if producing some funky tasting coffee. I do the exact same thing I do at home in a chemex of a v60 but it doesn't taste the same.
I have heard that grinders take some time to "break in". Have y'all found this to be the case? Apparently James Hoffmann says that it takes anywhere from 5-50 pounds of beans to go through the grinder. I'm feeling a bit foolish after touting how good this coffee was going to taste. What has your experience been?
