Know before you buy
The variable speed control allows you to adjust the RPM between 600 and 1800. Lower speeds can help reduce fines and heat buildup, which is particularly useful for dialing in specific flavor profiles in light-roast espressos.
Yes, the 64mm flat burrs and stepless adjustment system provide the precision needed for fine espresso grinding while remaining capable of producing consistent, uniform grounds for drip and pour-over methods.
The DF64V is designed as a single-dose grinder with a 50g (1.76 oz) hopper capacity. It is intended for weighing out your beans before each brew to ensure maximum freshness rather than storing large amounts of coffee in the hopper.
Cleaning is straightforward thanks to the magnetic chute, which allows for quick access to the exit path. The low-retention design also means there is very little grounds buildup inside, requiring only occasional brushing or air-puffing to maintain.
DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating significantly increases the surface hardness of the burrs. This enhances their durability and longevity, ensuring they maintain their sharpness and grind consistency over a much longer period than uncoated steel burrs.
With a width of only 3.9 inches and a height of 13 inches, this grinder has a very compact footprint. It is specifically engineered to fit easily under most standard kitchen cabinets without sacrificing performance.
