Know before you buy
The 58mm flat burrs provide a highly uniform particle size, which is essential for balanced extraction. This consistency helps highlight the nuanced flavor profiles of your beans, whether you are brewing a concentrated espresso or a clean pour-over.
Yes, the Pietro is designed to handle a wide range of grind sizes. Its adjustment mechanism allows you to dial in settings for everything from fine espresso to coarser drip coffee methods.
The single-dose hopper ensures you only grind exactly what you need for a single serving. This prevents coffee beans from sitting in the hopper and oxidizing, ensuring every cup you brew is as fresh as possible.
The Pietro is engineered for smooth, ergonomic operation. While it is a manual grinder, the internal mechanics are designed to minimize resistance, making the grinding process efficient and comfortable even for finer settings.
The vertical burr configuration is designed to reduce grind retention, meaning less coffee gets trapped inside the machine between uses. This makes it easier to keep the grinder clean and ensures that your next dose isn't contaminated by old grounds.
