The catch
Fellow Ode Brew Grinder Gen 2
It is brew-only, so it does not grind for espresso.
Side by side
Fellow Ode Gen 2 vs TIMEMORE Sculptor 064S: Ode takes larger filter batches, while 064S grinds for espresso too
Quick verdict
For filter coffee, and especially if you regularly grind more than 30 g, buy the Ode Gen 2. If the same grinder must serve espresso, buy the Sculptor 064S. The Ode's 100 g load bin is the useful advantage for batch brewing, though it does not turn the Ode into an espresso grinder.
Before you buy
Why, and what it costs you
For a 60 g batch, one load against at least two
A shared pot works on the Ode without reloading partway through the recipe.
Where this comes from
60 ≤ 100 g. 60 ÷ 30 = 2, based on TIMEMORE's approximate capacity.
The catch
TIMEMORE Sculptor 064S
Its standard hopper holds around 30 g, which means refilling for larger filter batches.

- Why pick it

TIMEMORE Sculptor 064S
- Why pick it

- The catch
- Its standard hopper holds around 30 g, which means refilling for larger filter batches.

What this page compares
Fellow Ode Gen 2 or Sculptor 064S? Decide using brew method, batch size and adjustment style rather than only the 64 mm burr diameter they share.
For filter coffee, and especially if you regularly grind more than 30 g, buy the Ode Gen 2. If the same grinder must serve espresso, buy the Sculptor 064S. The Ode's 100 g load bin is the useful advantage for batch brewing, though it does not turn the Ode into an espresso grinder.
Which one fits
Pick the situations that sound like you
My batch brews are 60 g
The Ode 2's 100 g load rating takes 60 g in one go, but the 064S's approximately 30 g stock hopper needs more than one fill.
- Fellow Ode Brew Grinder Gen 2
- Better fit
- TIMEMORE Sculptor 064S
- Caution
I need a grinder for my espresso machine
Ode 2 is a brew grinder, not designed for espresso, whereas the 064S comes with an espresso-capable burr set and stepless adjustment.
- Fellow Ode Brew Grinder Gen 2
- Not suitable
- TIMEMORE Sculptor 064S
- Better fit
I brew a single 20 g pour-over
Either stock hopper can take a 20 g recipe. For that particular dose, larger capacity alone gives little benefit.
- Fellow Ode Brew Grinder Gen 2
- Good
- TIMEMORE Sculptor 064S
- Good
I'd like to go back to numbered brew steps
Adjustment on the Ode 2 is numbered and stepped. The 064S is stepless, which means getting back to a setting takes more care with the dial position.

- Better fit
- TIMEMORE Sculptor 064S

In practice
Differences you will notice
For a 60 g batch, one load against at least two
A shared pot works on the Ode without reloading partway through the recipe.
How we worked this out
60 ≤ 100 g. 60 ÷ 30 = 2, based on TIMEMORE's approximate capacity.
Load bins differ by a ratio of 3.3 to one
For batch brewers, Ode's larger load capacity counts for more than burr diameter.
How we worked this out
100 ÷ 30 ≈ 3.33. The comparison is of nominal bean capacity and not of output speed.
Espresso is what settles the choice
The Ode is not designed to support an espresso machine, but the 064S does.
How we worked this out
Fellow describes the Ode as a brew grinder, and TIMEMORE describes the 064S as espresso-capable.

Spec by spec
Where they really differ
| Spec | Fellow Ode Brew Grinder Gen 2 | TIMEMORE Sculptor 064S | In practice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Espresso suitability | Not designed for espresso | Espresso-capable S burrs | Both use 64 mm burrs, yet a need for espresso rules out the Ode. |
| Bean load | 100 g | Around 30 g | The Ode takes a 60 g recipe in one load, while the Sculptor needs at least two 30 g loads for it. |
| Adjustment | 31 steps | Stepless | The 064S allows smaller espresso changes, whereas Ode settings are easy to write down. |
| Burr diameter | 64 mm | 64 mm | The supported brewing range cannot be read from the diameter. |
| Stopping routine | Automatic stop after grinding | Button or 60-second timed stop | A timer on the Sculptor is different from stopping once the dose is done. |
Trade-offs
What each pick costs you
With Fellow Ode Brew Grinder Gen 2
- With a 31-step dial, there is no adjusting between clicks.
With TIMEMORE Sculptor 064S
- The catch cup in the box is meant for 58 mm baskets and does not fit 54 mm ones directly.
Decision guide
How to decide
The Ode Gen 2 is the buy for filter coffee, particularly if you regularly grind more than 30 g. The Sculptor 064S is the buy if the same grinder has to serve espresso. For batch brewing the Ode's 100 g load bin is a useful advantage, but it does not make the Ode an espresso grinder.
Think about your brewer before burr size
In a filter-only home, the Ode's loading capacity is the more useful. If espresso is in the near-term plan, the 064S saves you from buying a grinder whose supported range leaves it out.
Consider a shared morning pot
A 60 g recipe fits easily into one load on the Ode. The Sculptor can grind it in portions, but the interruption is worth noticing if you do it every day.
Be honest about the small-batch trade-off
Both hoppers are large enough for a single 20 g cup. At that size, the choice shifts toward adjustment style and toward whether espresso capability is genuinely useful.
