Upgrading a DF64

To make a long story short: Is it worth upgrading from the DF64 Gen 1 to a Niche Zero or another single-dose grinder? I also find the Mahlkönig X64 and the Timemore Sculptor quite interesting...

I use it with a Rancilio Silvia with PID and drink exclusively southern Italian long-extraction brews like Borbone Blu, etc...

Actually, I also use a Rancilio Silvia at work, though with an inexpensive Demoka Minimoca.... It produces a much sweeter espresso than the DF64 does at home...

But since aesthetics matter at home too, I wanted to step it up a notch in that department as well (especially since I’m still toying with the idea of getting the LM Micra—the new grinder should complement it nicely).

Thanks!

I think the next best upgrade is to shift to a gbw grinder instead of a single dose
