What reviewers say
Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
Fellow Ode Brew Grinder Gen 2
One whitelisted hands-on review survived verification (Reviewed / USA Today) for the Fellow Ode Gen 2. Reviewed tested the grinder and praised supremely consistent grinds from fine Prismo to coarse cold brew, plus a sleek, compact design with useful extras like the grind knocker and included cleaning brush. It flagged the absence of an espresso grind function (finest 'Prismo' setting too coarse for espresso) and a stainless-steel catch funnel where grounds get stuck. No quantitative lab measurements were reported. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)
Praised: Supremely consistent, precise grinds across brew methods from fine Prismo to coarse cold brew; Sleek, compact design plus handy knock knob and included cleaning brush.
Flagged: No espresso grind setting; finest grind too coarse for espresso; Poorly designed stainless-steel catch funnel where grounds get stuck.
