from 1263 reviewsI really like this grinder. I purchased it mainly for the grind by weight feature. Despite it being "all purpose," it has some fantastic reviews, so I took a chance. It's too slow to change settings to quickly go between drip and espresso, but for me that's fine. This is a dedicated espresso grinder. I also love the simplicity. There's not a lot to fiddle with. The build is fantastic and it looks great on the counter. The only issue I've had is fitting bottomless portafilters. I finally figured out the balance, but it doesn't seem as simple as it is with spouted portafilters. All in all, very satisfied. I plan on keeping this for years to come.
I wanted a small footprint single-dose grinder with solid engineering and whisper quiet operation - that’s exactly what I got with the Turin DF64V Gen 3 grinder. This is a beautiful addition to my other kitchen appliances, and after only a few weeks and less than 2 lbs of beans to season the burrs, I’m already more than satisfied with the quality of the grind and the espresso shots I’ve been producing. I expect that the grind quality will continue to improve as I run more beans through it and properly season the burrs, but I have no complaints with what I’m getting during the break-in period. I especially appreciate that this grinder was designed to be easily disassembled for cleaning and maintenance. I also found that the active ionizer/plasma generator performs so well that I no longer need to use the RDT method to reduce static. I look forward to many years of use with this highly recommended grinder!
I did a lot of research before buying this machine. I knew I wanted to get a capable machine in all areas (PID control, strong steam, 58 mm ecosystem), but all of the options within the spec range I was looking for were at least 500 dollars, and many didn’t have all the specs I wanted. After using this machine for a little over a month, I have been very impressed. The only thing keeping this machine from being just as top tier as many 1000 dollar machines is its lack of long term proven reliability. Despite this, everything I have seen online and experienced firsthand indicates that this machine hits seriously above its price. With all of that out of the way, I would not buy this machine with the expectation that you will be getting the same experience as an ultra high end prosumer machine. It still only costs 430$, which means that some parts on it will reflect the cheap price point. For example, the PID buttons are difficult to press and it is hard to know when you are pressing it. The steam knob is plastic. But all of this is to be expected when you are paying 430$ for a machine with the specs of a 1000$ machine. These problems don’t bother me, but are certainly worth noting.
Just getting into super serious coffee drinking and preparation, but I was really happy with this purchase. Seems well made and the better grind is making noticeably tastier coffee.
So, I was hesitant to order an Open Box item, but ended up taking a chance given the savings, and I am glad I did. While I have only had the SK40 a few weeks, I am pleased with its performance. I like the stepless design, making it easy to tweak the grind ever so slightly. The only caution I have is one that has been called out in numerous reviews - don't plan to use this as your only grinder if you bounce between espresso and another brewing method. This is a great espresso grinder for darker roasts. If you are a fan of darker roast beans, look no further. This does that exceptionally well.
My hubby loved the grinder - it works flawlessly and I enjoy a coffee from it everyday.
Nothing out there now with big 83 conicals and a solid build like this for home. Heat low and fast grind at 280 RPM. Aesthetically pleasing. Grateful espresso outlet brought it to market. Just what I needed! Thanks so much.
First, Steve was very helpful in figuring out what you need out of a grinder. Customer service has been amazing, and gives me confidence in the product and support for it after purchase. I paired my Lelit Bianca v3 with this grinder and have been getting amazing shots. Grinder looks sleek, clean and feels extremely robust, like a proper piece of heavy duty equipment robust. Retention has not been an issue, the knocker tool and bellows do everything they need to, if they're even needed. It is actually quite quiet. Would recommend the black dial on black body combination. Overall quite a lot of grinder.
So far after three weeks, this machine has performed great. The temperature stability is good for pulling a double shot and steaming milk, with minimal time to reheat. It has been great value.
Just got my machine recently and have been having excellent expressos and milk based drinks with this. Love the flow/ pressure profiling and temps are super accurate as well. Dont miss the vibratory pump either from my old Rocket :-)
Awesome product, fast shipping and excellent customer service
