As for Question #1 I have a couple ideas: 1. Keep an eye on the pricing of the Bodum burr grinder . It's $100 MSRP but it averages about $70-80 on amazon and dips as low as $50 sometimes particularly at Target where it can occasionally be found but not without checking a stock checking website first.
Other option you might consider would be to buy/use a crap grinder and just integrate a sifter like the Kruve or homemade sieves or something to make up for the inconsistencies. There's a $50 option for the filter if they've got some crap $20-30 burr grinder in mind. Either way you're over budget but still keeping quality in check.

3 Mill City is maybe cheapest. Probatino is maybe the most expensive. Huky is awesome but maybe only a 1.5 lbs size. Behmor 1600+ is 12oz-16oz at a time at most but with the + version you can keep it running long enough to get a good roast for a pound it just isn't fast at all which gives you less control over the roast profile which could affect the quality. Super cheap though at $300. Depends on how much you wanna spend and how serious you are about making this work, about the roast quantity/quality, and how much control you want.
Just got a new grinder (this one) and I'm suddenly having sludge in my coffee. I use an Aeropress. I may just not have the right setting, but I really just want the sludge to go away.
Before my grinder now, I used this one and had no sludge.
They're both burr grinders, what am I doing wrong?
I recently bought a Bodum Bistro Burr Grinder at the $80 price point, and it produces a decent espresso grind. It's pretty quiet, too, and no mess.
