Just bought a Niche Zero after researching many grinders; finds it very quiet, with very low retention and an easy workflow, and a top choice for medium to dark espresso.

“It's still one of the best conical burr grinders on the market, very quiet for a grinder, super low retention, and super easy work flow.”

Upgraded from a DF64 to the Niche Zero and noticed a big flavour difference with medium to medium-dark beans; prefers the texture and body and says it was worth it, though shipping to the US now carries a tariff fee.

“Recently upgraded from DF64 to Niche Zero and I’ve noticed a big difference in flavor with my medium to medium dark beans. I much prefer the texture and full body I get with the Niche”
positivegreat espresso

Upgraded from a DF54 to the Niche Zero and gets much better espresso; the DF54 has been relegated.

“I did it and i get much better espresso from the niche. Still have the df54 but its definitely been relegated.”
positivegreat espresso

Owns a Niche Zero: the best user experience of any grinder, but it makes too many fines and bitterness, and a flat burr grinder was a revelation.

“Niche Zero is probably the best UX of any grinder, but it is not a good grinder. I have one, and moving to a different flat burr grinder was a revelation.”

Bought a used Niche Zero to replace a DF54 and it's been a treat for espresso; only misses the DF54 for pour-over.

Went from hand grinding to a CF64V they returned, then to a Niche Zero, which they call the safest bet for milk drinks.

“Talking from experience much like you from hand grinding to cf64v (returned within a couple of weeks) then a niche.”
