Bought a fancy burr grinder over a blade one... kind of regret it

I spent $120 on a manual burr grinder from a shop in Portland after reading online that it's the only way to get consistent grounds for pour over. But my morning routine went from 2 minutes to almost 10 minutes of cranking, and honestly I can't tell the difference in taste. Has anyone else tried both and gone back to the blade grinder?

Did you try adjusting the grind size? Way coarser = way faster.

My Bunn actually sped up like crazy when I dropped from a 15 to a 20 grind setting. Totally agree with @emmam89, coarser was the only thing that fixed my slow flow too. It's wild how much that one change can affect the whole brew time.
