What changes in daily use.

Why shortlist it

  • Motor-driven grinding for repeated daily preparations.
  • Macro + micro adjustment.

The trade-off

Match both the model name and installed burr material to the setting chart.

Before you buy or brew

  1. Match both the model name and installed burr material to the setting chart.
  2. Use the exact model and burr revision when reading a grind chart.
  3. Check regional voltage, counter space and local parts support.

“No verified setting” does not by itself mean a method is impossible. It means we have not established a published value for the exact model. Do not interpret burr movement in microns as coffee particle size.
