Emperor V2 Analog Chorus/Vibrato with Tap TempoIn 2014 JHS brought you the Emperor V1, a 100% Analog Chorus/Vibrato with Tap Tempo. Now in 2018 they are proud to bring you the Emperor V2!
There are two ways to look at the JHS Pedals Emperor Analog Chorus/Vibrato pedal. The Emperor V2 is a vintage-correct effect that absolutely nails the hard-to-find sound of the Arion SCH-1... but its also a do-it-all modulation solution whether you want a subtle sheen, convincing rotary simulation, or seasick vibrato. It utilizes a Bucket Brigade 3207 chipset to deliver the warmth of ‘80s-style analog chorus pedals and JHS has added enough onboard and outboard control to put you in command of every aspect of the Emperor’s voice. Whether spreading its warm tones or icy sheen to a pristine-sounding stereo rig... or utilizing an external expression pedal to cop realistic rotary speaker sounds on a blues gig, the Emperor can do it all.
So much modulation
JHS calls the Emperor an analog chorus/vibrato. That’s just because calling it a true analog chorus/pitch vibrato with tap tempo/waveform selection/rotary speaker simulation/true stereo output/and more pedal would have been a pain to write every time.
• The glorious tones of a real-deal, 3207 chipset bucket brigade topology
• Mini toggle switch selects between chorus and vibrato effects
• Three available waveform types (sine, square, and triangle)
• Intuitive controls for Volume, EQ, Speed, and Depth
Updated Tone Shaping Capabilities
Making a good thing better? Yes please. The Emperor V1 had a Tone control which has now become the EQ control in the Emperor V2. JHS has replaced the passive tone control in the V1 with an active EQ control that functions as a Tilt. You'll now have much more tone shaping capability in the V2. The overall EQ control is much improved in the Emperor V2 and you will not lose any low-end sometimes commonly found with chorus/vibrato pedals.
In-depth tempo control
To control the rate of the Emperor’s effect, simply turn the Speed knob up and down or tap the tap tempo footswitch. Or for the more adventurous among us...plug in an expression pedal for variable control in real time. And you can even slave the pedal to other tap-controlled pedals for rhythmic consistency across all your effects.
• Control the rate with the onboard Speed knob or tap tempo footswitch
• Internal Tap/Exp mini switch controls the side-mounted Tap/Exp TRS jack
• Use an external source to control the rate in the Tap Out setting (works great with the JHS Panther Cub Delay and Unicorn pedals).
• LED indicator notifies you of the effect’s tempo, even when disengaged
A few extras
You knew JHS would throw in a few extra features for you, didn’t you? Of course they did. When designing the Emperor, they conveniently and inconspicuously tucked in stereo output and the ability to select between buffered or true-bypass operation.
• Plugging TRS splitter cable into the output jack is all it takes to wring true stereo output from the Emperor
• Internal switch changes from buffered to true-bypass operation**
• High-quality buffer helps drive long cable runs and in-depth pedal setups while restoring high-end loss
This pedal requires standard 9V DC Negative power, consumes less than 100mA.
There are a lot of penguins out there but only one Emperor.

Great Little Grinder — Solid Build & Easy to Use!
I’ve really enjoyed using this manual coffee grinder! For the price, it’s an excellent find. The adjustable settings work surprisingly well — I’ve been able to get a consistent grind whether I’m brewing for espresso or French press, which isn’t always the case with more affordable manual grinders. The ceramic burr gives a nice, even grind without overheating the beans, which helps preserve the flavor.
It’s easy to use and straightforward to adjust. The grind size clicks into place firmly, so you don’t feel like it’s going to slip or change while you’re using it. One fill gives me enough coffee for about two cups, which is perfect for my morning routine or when I’m brewing a small batch.
The build quality feels sturdy and durable, with a sleek look that doesn’t feel cheap. The handle turns smoothly and doesn’t wobble, which makes the whole experience feel solid and satisfying. I’ve taken it on a short weekend trip already, and it’s lightweight and compact enough for travel or camping.
If you're someone who loves the ritual of grinding your own beans or just wants a reliable backup grinder for when the power’s out, I’d highly recommend this one. Great value for a tool that feels like it’ll last!

Seems like a decent product, but it's not for me
First off, a small caveat: this is the first manual grinder I have used. I am trying to highlight things I think might be unique to this model, but some of these might be "that's just how manual grinders work" problems.
First and foremost, I can only cram about 20g of coffee into here at one time. If I'm making an 8oz cup, that tends to be enough -- but no larger than that. I also find it hard to load; last time I tried to just pour beans in most of them ended up on the floor. One scoop at a time is annoying if you are adding 20 grams of coffee, especially if you use a small scoop.
Also, I personally dislike that the body that holds the unground beans is opaque. I have to turn the thing upside down to determine if I have more left in there to grind or not. This is likely the same for other models but I don't think it makes for an ideal user experience.
Now, on the upside, it's compact, easy to use, and easy to clean. I don't know how to gauge the accuracy or consistency of the grind, but it seems to produce a somewhat finer grind than my electric burr grinder at what I would expect to be the same setting (20/40 on here is more fine than 14/28 on the other grinder, even though I would expect both of those to be "medium"). I'm someone who prefers slightly coarser grind, even for pour over, so this is another strike against it in my book.
I have only used it two or three times due to usually making larger cups that this can accommodate, and also not enjoying spending 5 minutes rotating my arms to get the coffee ground. So I also cannot speak to durability, but the plastic and glass both seem sturdy so I do expect it to last.
All in all, I love that it is lightweight, portable, and easy to clean, but I think I'm someone who prefers the ease of use that an electronic grinder can provide. And seriously, IDK how anyone is getting more than 20g of coffee into this thing at one time.

Almost blew up my microwave
Size: 20 Ounces, Size: 20 Ounces
TL;DR "A hilarious microwave mistake turned into a great home cafe upgrade. This 20oz cup is straightforward to handle, looks incredibly professional, and holds a level of heat that will literally burn you if you aren't careful."
.
Bought this for homemade coffee brewing, just to spice things up. But as I go ahead to heat up my new shiny stainless steel milk frother cup in the microwave, whoopdy doo. Ya can’t put stainless in the microwave! Regardless, it’s still a straightforward frother cup to handle, making it a great dollar investment for upgrading my home cafe setup.
.
1. Spotless Stainless Steel: Its sleek appearance made me feel professional in the hands of an amateur like moi. Great quality!
2. Temperature Retention: I accidentally burnt myself because it stayed so hot, but that is a major positive. Proving the insulation works perfectly and keeps the milk piping hot.
3. Size: The 20oz capacity is accurate, providing the perfect amount of space for frothing without any overflow.
