I've had my unit since November 2024 and it has worked great. I used it withe the stock burrs and was able to fine tune it for a great espresso grind. Now on July 2026, the unit failed to start, as it did daily for over a year. Now it is simply dead, there seems to be a slight humming of the motor when I plug it in, but no signs that it will come back to life.
I have attached an email to you that you have received a different piece from the one I ordered and it has not been answered yet.
Great unit! The Gallatine DB is solid. Very heavy duty, the housing is well constructed with thick metal and a very high quality finish. Everyone that sees it is amazed. Makes awesome espresso, but needs a very fine grind and some serious tamping. I have my old Rocky Grinder set at 1 and I'm finally getting good results. I've been happily using my Rancillo Silvia for the last 20 years, but so super excited to move up to a double boiler. Will never go back. Well worth the extra cost for the double boiler. The machine is an excellent value.
Fresh and Delicious. Thank you!
Just a great grinder that works as advertised!

Super fast shipping. Absolutely no static with this grinder while doing fine grind espresso shots. Does very well with coarse grinds as well with no mess. Retention is crazy good, out of 30 grinds so far what I have put in is exactly what I have got back. Do not hesitate on this one. Now I need the C83 for testing!
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.
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.
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.
