For Christmas last year I decided to make the switch to the Fellow Ode Gen 2 from the Baratza Encore, and I haven’t looked back. If you’ve followed my coffee journey, you know I was on the hunt for a grinder that balanced precision, quiet operation, and a clean workflow. (I wrote about my decision-making process here and also covered why I needed the quietest grinder possible here.)
When most people think about HubSpot, they think CRM, marketing automation, or sales enablement. But what if I told you that HubSpot can actually serve as a powerful Learning Management System (LMS)?
If you’re in the market for a burr grinder, you’ve probably seen the OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder pop up on a lot of “best grinder” lists.

As someone who works from home, a good cup of coffee is an essential part of my morning routine. But for years, my coffee ritual came with a downside: noise. If you’ve ever used a coffee grinder early in the morning, you know how loud they can be—jolting the whole house awake before you’ve even had your first sip. One of my first grinders I got at Walmart literally sounded like an airplane was taking off. This required getting a blanket and literally smothering it before turning it on.
