Know before you buy
Adjusting the RPM between 600 and 1800 allows you to manipulate the particle distribution of your grind. Lower speeds generally produce fewer fines, which can improve clarity in pour-over brews, while higher speeds can help achieve the consistency needed for dialing in complex espresso shots.
The grinder is designed for single-dosing with less than 0.1g of retention. The integrated ion generator significantly reduces static, ensuring that nearly everything you put into the hopper ends up in your portafilter or catch cup.
Yes, the stepless micrometric adjustment dial allows for precise, infinite control over your grind size. Because the adjustment is stepless, you can make micro-adjustments to your espresso or quickly dial back to a coarser setting for French press without being locked into preset clicks.
The DF64V features a tool-free disassembly design, making it straightforward to access the 64mm burrs for routine cleaning. You can remove the top collar and burr carrier by hand, which helps maintain the grinder's performance and prevents old coffee oils from affecting the taste of your brew.
Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating increases the surface hardness of the burrs, which significantly extends their lifespan compared to standard steel burrs. This coating also reduces friction during the grinding process, leading to a more consistent grind and less heat buildup.
As a single-dose grinder, it is designed to have the exact amount of beans weighed out before grinding. It is best suited for users who prefer to switch between different coffee beans frequently or who want to ensure maximum freshness by grinding only what they need for a single cup.
