What customers say
This grinder earns high praise, primarily for its exceptional build quality and professional performance. Users consistently highlight the robust, all-metal construction, which feels premium and durable. The 65mm flat burrs deliver outstandingly consistent grounds crucial for precise espresso dialing. Experienced baristas value the stepless adjustment system for minute control over extraction. While the initial cost is significant, owners feel the investment is justified by the grinder's reliability and professional grade results. Minor considerations include typical flat burr retention and a slight learning curve for beginners adjusting to the stepless mechanism. Overall, the Fausto 2.1 is celebrated as a powerful workhorse that significantly elevates the home espresso setup.
Know before you buy
The Fausto 2.1 is specifically engineered for espresso. While it can technically grind for other methods, its burr geometry and adjustment system are optimized for the fine, precise settings required for high-quality espresso shots.
The infinite micrometric adjustment allows you to make tiny, stepless changes to your grind size. This gives you complete control to dial in your espresso perfectly, rather than being limited to preset notches.
The grinder is designed for near-silent operation, making it significantly quieter than many other commercial-grade grinders. It is an excellent choice if you want to prepare coffee early in the morning without disturbing the rest of your household.
Yes, the digital touch display features two programmable dosing buttons. You can set these to your preferred times for a single or double shot, ensuring consistent output every time you grind.
Larger burrs provide a more uniform grind and faster throughput, which reduces heat buildup during the grinding process. This consistency is essential for extracting the full flavor profile of your espresso beans.
The Fausto 2.1 measures 17.2cm wide by 28cm deep. At 44.5cm tall, it is a substantial machine, so you should ensure you have enough clearance under your kitchen cabinets before purchasing.
