A grinding matter...

Having appreciated the presence of the Aeropress on a two week self catering holiday recently, I wondered if there was any portable grinder that could compliment the Aeropress.
A little research pointed me to the Porlex Mini Grinder, a Japanese burr grinder (burr is good!).
It arrived today and while the instructions are completely in Japanese, a quick online search found a couple of sites that provide a translation of the instructions.
The device is easy to use and an initial grind of some beans produced a even quality of ground coffee. Filling the lower part with 17g of beans (the amount recommended by some users for the Aeropress) turns out to be enough to fill the upper chamber to the lip. So, easy to measure, should you forget your pocket scales!
The Mini version is just the right size to fit into the outer part of the Aeropress to help with packing.
