Fiorenzato AllGround Sense
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- I do both espresso and filter from time to time, and the Allground Sense seems to be the best bet at around $1,000 for something that can switch between the two.
- Allground Sense is a fabulous grinder and probably could do light commercial duty.
- At the high end of your budget should be the Fiorenzato Allground Sense.
- My boyfriend recently got a Lelit Bianca v3 and a Fiorenzato AllGround Sense grinder.
- I have the AGS and it is just an amazing little machine. However, I do not think it is best out there if you drink medium to dark roasts.
Cons
- good clean-ability, main issue seems to be some clunk and weird restrictions in the UI (like caps on weight you can grind). I believe the forks have been redesigned from most of the early round of interviews that criticized them.
- I've also considered a GBW for the streamlined workflow and looked particularly at the Fiorenzato Allground Sense but worried about many reviewers online citing issues with the near 4-6g retention per grind which is absurdly high, and pr...
- For the Fiorenzato, it was a decent grinder that made great espresso, but nothing mind-blowing. The pros: small footprint, aesthetically pleasing, good espresso (better than most cafes), easy to dial in (usually), small hopper, decent in...
- I recently went back and forth between the AllGround Sense vs Atom W65. I ended up going with the W65 due to my upper cabinets only being 17.25” and the Sense was just too tall.
- I've been looking for an upgrade in similar budget but just can't decide between Philos or AllGround Sense.

I've also considered a GBW for the streamlined workflow and looked particularly at the Fiorenzato Allground Sense but worried about many reviewers online citing issues with the near 4-6g retention per grind which is absurdly high, and probably worse if switching back and forth between espresso/filter.

For the Fiorenzato, it was a decent grinder that made great espresso, but nothing mind-blowing. The pros: small footprint, aesthetically pleasing, good espresso (better than most cafes), easy to dial in (usually), small hopper, decent interface, not too loud, and it's on the more affordable end. The cons: No upgradability... not the best range for dialing in, retention, occasional stalling, grind speed.
I looked at the Eureka, style mattered for me as well as function. That’s what pushed me more to the Fiorenzato, have absolutely zero regrets
Parent context: Is the retention in the grinder as bad as they say it is? >5g typically ? Reply: Have had zero issues. Been spot on for me and relatively clean
