What customers say
The DF64 grinder earns high praise for delivering exceptional grind quality, especially for espresso, rivaling much more expensive models. This performance establishes it as an outstanding value for serious home baristas. Users consistently appreciate the single dosing workflow and extremely low retention, aided by the included bellows, which maximizes freshness. While the core grinding mechanism is robust, some users note the grinder can be loud and static can require extra steps for cleanup. Despite minor workflow quirks, the overall consensus positions the DF64 as a highly customizable, high performance workhorse that democratizes access to quality flat burr grinding.
Know before you buy
Single dosing means you weigh out exactly the amount of beans you need for one brew and grind them fresh each time. This eliminates the need for a large hopper, keeps your beans fresher, and makes it easy to switch between different coffee origins or roast profiles without waste.
The air blowing attachment is highly effective. By manually pumping the bellows after grinding, you force out the remaining grounds trapped in the chute, allowing you to achieve near-zero retention and ensuring you get out exactly what you put in.
Yes, the stepless micrometric dial allows for infinite, precise adjustments, which is essential for dialing in espresso. Because there are no fixed steps, you can make tiny, incremental changes to your grind size to perfectly balance your extraction.
The DF64 is designed with a standard 64mm flat burr geometry, which makes it highly compatible with many popular aftermarket burr sets. This allows enthusiasts to customize their grind profile and flavor clarity as they progress in their coffee journey.
The grinder has a compact footprint measuring 225mm by 130mm, with a height of 300mm. Its slim profile is designed to fit comfortably under most standard kitchen cabinets while remaining stable during operation due to its 6.8kg weight.
Absolutely. The 64mm flat burrs provide the consistency needed for fine espresso extractions, while the wide range of the adjustment dial allows you to easily switch to coarser settings for pour-over or filter brewing methods.
