The Fellow Ode is designed for filter coffee drinkers who weigh a dose, grind it and brew. It uses large 64 mm flat steel burrs of the kind the listing compares with professional grinders, and it stops automatically once the hopper is empty, so you can walk away while it grinds.

In its favour
- 64 mm flat steel burrs give an even grind at any setting, according to the listing.
- The motor is PID controlled and grinding stops automatically when the beans run out.
- A chute spatula and magnetic aluminium catch keep retention very low.
Good to know
- The listing states a Type C/EF two-pin Europlug and 220 V, so a UK adapter may be needed.
- The number of grind settings is not stated in the listing.
Our take
Flat burrs and PID control
Version 1.1 uses 64 mm medium flat steel burrs, which the listing says ensure even grinding at any setting. A PID system keeps motor operation uniform and stable. Flat burrs of this size are popular for filter brewing because they tend to produce a consistent particle size.
The number of grind settings is not given in the listing.
Single dose, auto stop
The hopper takes 80 g and is designed for pouring in a single dose. The grinder detects beans in the hopper and stops when they are gone, a convenience most grinders in this group lack.
A small spatula beside the chute helps clear coffee residue, which the listing says keeps retention extremely low.
That workflow suits people who already weigh beans for each brew, and it keeps beans sealed in their bag rather than sitting in a hopper.
Catch cup and build
The grounds container is aluminium with a magnet at the base, so it locks into place on the grinder. The housing is aluminium with plastic accessories. It measures 23.9 cm deep, 10.5 cm wide and 24.1 cm high, compact enough to sit under most cupboards, and weighs 6.3 kg. Power is 150 watts.
Points to check before buying
This listing describes 220 volts and a two-pin Europlug, so it may be an imported version rather than a UK model. Check the plug and voltage before ordering. EU spare part availability is listed as one year. The Ode is aimed at filter, and the listing makes no claim about espresso fineness.
Against the Encore ESP Pro and Sage Dose Control Pro
The Baratza Encore ESP Pro has stepless adjustment, a 300 g hopper and both single dose and timer modes, covering espresso as well as filter. Sage's Dose Control Pro is the hopper-based alternative, listing 60 numbered settings and a 1 second timer. The Ode is the specialist for single dose filter with flat burrs.
Verdict
Buy the Fellow Ode if you brew filter coffee by the dose and want flat burrs, auto stop and a compact, solid grinder. If you need espresso as well, the Baratza Encore ESP Pro is more versatile, and if you would rather keep beans in a hopper, the Sage Dose Control Pro is a simpler daily option.
