Fellow Ode Brew Grinder Gen 2

How to read the dial

Dial number, thirds written as decimals, e.g. 5.33 = one click past 5, 5.67 = two clicks past 5. 1 is finest, 11 coarsest.

Zero: factory-calibrated; 1 is the finest marked setting (not burrs touching). Fellow publishes a calibration procedure.

Good to know

• Not for espresso, moka pot or Turkish. Fellow says espresso needs under 200 µm and the Ode cannot get there.
• zero_offset_um 250 is Fellow's claim for how fine the Gen 2 Brew Burrs can grind. It is a marketing figure, not a measured particle size at setting 1. Treat as an estimate.
• Fellow does not publish burr travel per click. burr_travel_um_per_step is left null.
• Fellow's chart also lists 1-3 for the Prismo AeroPress attachment, 6-7 for cupping and 7-9 for electric drip machines. None of those map to a method id here.
• Adjust the dial with the motor running when going finer. Adjusting finer while stopped can bind the burrs on leftover grounds.
• Retention 0.1 g is Fellow's 'as low as' figure with the anti-static system clean. Fellow says retention rises after about 60 grinds until the chute is brushed out.
• The SSP MP burr option grinds differently, so these settings apply to the stock Gen 2 Brew Burrs only.
• Motor rpm is not published on Fellow's spec list.
