I need to purchase a bulk grinder for filling bags. I will not have
too much volume at the moment.

I have decided to purchase a new Bunn burr grinder since I just cant
justify the $$$ for a Ditting.

The G1, G2, and G3 look identical accept for the hopper size.

I realize that this seems like a ridiculous question, but...
Any words of wisdom on which hopper size would be the best?

TIA,
Tim

You are the only one that can answer the question - what is a larger
hopper worth versus what does it cost. Last time I looked these
machines are identical except for the hopper size.

The price difference is only $10.00 so that is not a issue.

I just wasn't sure if there was any drawback to a larger hopper.

get the biggest. anything smaller and it can be a pain to get a 1lb
bag under the spout.

Barry:
Thought the only diff was the width of the beast - so the spout on the
3 is higher?

Learn something new every day.

Barry is correct - the G1 is 11.6" high at the top of the spout vs 13.3
for the G3 - go G3.

Get the G3 if theprice isn't that much different. You'll be glad you
did, especially when you sell it someday...

It's a good machine.
