My dad swore I was grinding coffee beans wrong for years

He told me to always use a burr grinder instead of my blade one because it heats the beans less. Finally tried his way last week with a cheap hand crank model and the difference in flavor was ridiculous - my morning cup actually tastes like something now. Anyone else have a relative who turned out to be right about a simple coffee habit?

Saw the same thing with my dad and his pour over setup. Hated admitting he was right about the water temperature thing.

Grabbed a Hario Mini Mill and never looked back honestly.

Figured it was just some old timer gatekeeping thing too. Then I grabbed a cheap hand grinder on a whim and yeah, I was totally wrong. What kind of burr grinder did you end up going with?
