The burr is nice and sharp. The adjustability is good. However it jams if its not a hot atart and it gave trouble turinong off at first. It tends to be messy as there is not a good captur method for the coffee grinds.
I'm very satisfied with the service from Espresso Outlet.
I've only had my DF64V for a few weeks, having run about a pound and a half of beans through it. I didn't break the burrs in with a few kilos of cheap coffee as, I'd rather endure the break-in than waste the hard work of the pickers.
So with the combination of some burr break-in and getting to know my beans, I'm pulling some great shots.
I can't speak to random comments about stalling, as I consider that to be misuse of the grinder (i.e. light roasted beans, ground at 800 rpm for espresso).
I've been grinding medium light beans at 1200 rpm and my shots are coming out predictably.
Noise was a concern, as it's difficult to get a handle on noise from the YouTube reviews, but I'd call it minimal, but high-pitched (when grinding). When not grinding, I have to feel the case for subtle vibrations to tell if it's on.
I find the bellows to be useful, unlike most YouTube reviewers. I'm not sure how much the ionizer works, but with with a couple of RDT sprays, I'm consistently getting from 17.9 to 18.0 g out when loading 18.0 g.
I love the magnetic chute. This is a brilliant idea!
Love everything about it but the plasma anti-static stays on so I have to unplug daily (I understand I can open up the machine and easily fix but have not done so yet and really should not have to on a new machine). But it grinds great and looks great. The cup does not fit too well so it does not look straight which bugs me a bit.
Amazing grinder. Couldn't be happier with it. Shipped fast.

Great customer service. Very knowledgeable
Looks great works great
Showed up in great working order. I’m still learning how to dial it in. Likely need a DF54 or 64 in the near future so I can try some lighter roasts. My oxo grinder is incapable. All that to say I am happily building my espresso workstation around this machine. That should say a lot.
they smell amazing
The M1 lite is sooooo rad! Everyone in my family wants me to roast for them now, which is awesome because I can really fine tune quickly with how small the batch size is. I highly recommend this product! I've done 13 batches in 3 weeks!
Very nice machine! Took my very good espresso up several levels of wow!
This grinder is not loud and since it is so fast, even if the volume did bother some, it is over before you can knock out the last puck.
I love this grinder! It’s beautiful, solid and takes up very little space.
I ordered a set of dlc burrs for a newly purchased df 64, although turin seems to have transitioned to the Red Titanium burrs. The people at Espresso Outlet were able to fulfill my order. The communication could not have been better. This review is not about the burrs I haven't installed them yet. The review is for Espresso Outlet the service they provide is outstanding.
The grinder works great, nice work flow much quieter than the baratza sette I have been using. Nice fluffy clump free grind. This was a preorder it came when expected. I would gladly do business with Espresso Outlet again.
Wow am I impressed with this grinder. Tremendous machine for the price. I upgraded over what I had and this is a massive improvement. Nicely done Turin. Quality product and highly recommended.
I use it only for espresso and it’s performed flawlessly, it throws to within, .3g 15g in 14.7out is the the greatest difference I’ve ever found generally it’s within .1 or right on. A silver colored cup would be better than the black so that you can see how much coffee is still stuck inside after after transporting into the Portafilter transferring into the Portafilter.
I would definitely recommend it to my friends:)
Love this machine! Feels super well built and can’t wait to make many more drinks with it.
Great product. Love it
