The quality of each espresso or drip coffee served by you depends on how good and quickly you can grind. What sets a good grinder apart from a poor one?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Burrs\nare the key!<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If the grinder is the most important\ndevice for preparing coffee, the burrs are its most important element. They are\nresponsible for breaking coffee into small particles. Their shape, size and\ndurability determine the grind quality and thus the flavour of the brew. They\nare an element that wears out and should be exchanged at regular intervals. When\nchoosing, what should you bear in mind?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Flat or conical burrs?<\/strong>&nbsp;Actually, this is not so important and there is no clear-cut evidence that one type of burrs is better than the other. It is worthwhile mentioning that in the case of constructions with conical burrs, there is a risk of damaging the motor shaft, which in turn destroys the whole device. This can happen when, for example, together with coffee beans, a pebble gets into the grinder. Of course, flat burr grinders won\u2019t come out of this undamaged either, but, as far as they are concerned, the risk of destroying the motor is smaller.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/6JifTGE6EyKsRoTuKfIo3Piga_vemFsWie7-bypAl1RlEHSbymA6t2FUUjQOg9O_Lr_KkkNCY7IdJERVD4NEfdTwnUB5cONrgztbr7-2ANTSLu9Qp2nZeeEgrdhVuAwLacaLJUVq\" alt=\"\" width=\"578\" height=\"232\"\/><figcaption> <em>Flat and conical burrs. They look different, but there are no marked differences between them when it comes to the coffee flavour.&nbsp;<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Size matters <\/strong>&#8211; in general, the bigger the burrs, the better. As their diameter grows, so does the speed of grinding and the risk of overheating coffee, which can happen as a consequence of heavy loads and fine grinding, decreases. Besides, large burr grinders usually come with stronger and more robust motors, and their geometry allows them to achieve greater precision in grinding. The minimum burr diameter for an industrial espresso grinder should be 65 mm. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/McMzQ2c9Lk7mUC30cLhgGHuzxUCD1u6jo3v0tT4jXPQuzviM6X6UK6-kr2mRSRDwdzuOuTRKXthqcTcF-ecHyxNeco3haaLQJfvNQ0lGbMXV9oB9xTqvQXA1Ox7vgZ-Yx2foNp9z\" alt=\"\" width=\"527\" height=\"527\"\/><figcaption> <em>Really BIG burrs with a 98 mm diameter from the Mahlkonig EK43 grinder.

When choosing a grinder, it is worthwhile&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Application: espresso or drip\ncoffee?&nbsp;<\/strong>Those two brewing methods require two completely\ndifferent grind sizes and thus burrs with different characteristics. Therefore,\nan espresso grinder won\u2019t necessarily produce a delicious pour-over coffee,\nwhereas a grinder for dripper or Chemex may not even be able to grind fine\nenough for espresso. This is why you need to identify your needs right at the\nbeginning &#8211; espresso grinders are usually more expensive, because they require\na high precision of grinding and a higher lifespan of the elements, which makes\nthem withstand intensive use in a catering business. There are appliances on\nthe market that can grind well both for espresso and pour-over methods. Such\nappliances are, among others:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/3988\/Baratza-Sette-270\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">the Baratza Sette 270<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/10618\/Eureka-Atom-Pro-Automatic-Grinder-Black\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">the Eureka Atom Pro<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/3003\/Mahlkonig-Ek-43-Black\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">the Mahlkonig EK43<\/a><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, none of these devices belongs to the cheapest ones within their class, but they are universal and offer you a high quality of grinding for every brewing method.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/b2b.coffeedesk.pl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MLYNEK-BARATZA-SETTE-270-AKCESORIA-SESJA-KAWIARNIA7-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption> <a href=\"https:\/\/b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/3988\/Baratza-Sette-270\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">the Baratza Sette 270<\/a> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Stepless\nadjustment of grind sizes<\/strong> &#8211; particularly important when it\ncomes to espresso. Thanks to this system (which is present in most professional\ngrinders), it is possible to adjust the grind size very accurately. The best\nmodels on the market additionally provide you with a convenient and easy to use\n<strong>regulation system based on a worm drive<\/strong>.<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>Thanks to it,\nyou can adjust the grinder without any effort and quickly change the grind\nsettings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dosage\nprogramming and doserless construction <\/strong>&#8211; every\nmodern espresso grinder should have those two traits. They can save you a lot\nof time and money, since coffee is ground evenly and in a repeatable way every\ntime, and, moreover, it goes directly into the portafilter. This solution also\nhelps you to keep ground coffee as fresh as possible and achieve a repeatable\nespresso extraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Easy access\nto burrs<\/strong> &#8211; the grinder has to be cleaned, just like an espresso machine\nor an oven. The more often and the more thoroughly you do it, especially if you\nuse dark roast coffee, the better, both for the coffee flavour and for the\ncondition of the grinder. An ideal construction is the one letting you take out\nthe burrs without having to calibrate the device anew afterwards. All Eureka or\nBaratza grinders are equipped with this system. It lets you clean the inside of\nthe grinder or change the burrs in a matter of minutes, whereas with other\nconstructions, doing the same thing takes at least an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Grind speed<\/strong>\n&#8211; this parameter has been mentioned earlier in the context of burr size. Of\ncourse, the quicker the grinder grinds, the better. The finer we grind, the\nmore time the grinder needs to grind the same amount of coffee. For espresso,\nthe acceptable grind time for catering purposes is under 7 seconds for 15 grams\nof coffee. Top devices need slightly over 3 seconds for this task.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cooling the\nburrs<\/strong> &#8211; as they are subject to heavy loads and a high grind speed,\ngrinders for espresso should have this type of amenity. It lets you keep an\neven grind and a low temperature of ground coffee even in the most heated\nmoments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>\n  Name\n  <\/td><td>\n  Application\n  <\/td><td>\n  Burrs\n  <\/td><td>\n  Adjustment\n  <\/td><td>\n  Grind speed for 15 g (espresso)\n  <\/td><td>\n  Use and efficiency\n  <\/td><td>\n  Easy cleaning\n  <\/td><td>\n  Quietness \n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>   <a href=\"https:\/\/b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/7220\/Baratza-Sette-270Wi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">Baratza Sette 270<\/a>   <\/td><td>\n  Universal\n  <\/td><td>\n  Conical, 40 mm\n  <\/td><td>\n  Stepless\n  <\/td><td>\n  Around 6 s\n  <\/td><td>\n  Home\/Office\/Small catering business\n  &nbsp;(Under 1 kg\n  per day)\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><td>\n  NO\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>   <a href=\"https:\/\/b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/915\/Baratza-Virtuoso\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">Baratza Virtuoso<\/a>   <\/td><td>\n  pour-over\n  <\/td><td>\n  Conical, 40 mm\n  <\/td><td>\n  Stepped, 40 grind settings\n  <\/td><td>\n  n\/a\n  <\/td><td>\n  Pour-over coffees are a bonus\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><td>\n  NO\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>   <a href=\"https:\/\/b2b.coffeedesk.com\/search\/Eureka%20Mignon%20Specialita\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">Eureka Mignon Specialita<\/a>   <\/td><td>\n  Espresso\n  <\/td><td>\n  Flat, 55 mm\n  <\/td><td>\n  Stepless, worm drive\n  <\/td><td>\n  Around 6 s\n  <\/td><td>\n  Restaurants, offices,<br>\n  additionally, an \n  espresso blend (up to 1 kg per day)\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>   <a href=\"https:\/\/b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/9555\/Eureka-Olympus-75-Ap-Matt-Black\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">Eureka Olympus 75 AP<\/a>   <\/td><td>\n  Espresso\n  <\/td><td>\n  Flat, 75 mm\n  <\/td><td>\n  Infinite worm gear\n  <\/td><td>\n  Around 3 s\n  <\/td><td>\n  High-volume coffee shop\n  &nbsp;(10+ kg per\n  day)\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><td>\n  NO\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>   <a href=\"https:\/\/www.b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/10618\/Eureka-Atom-Pro-Automatic-Grinder-Black\">Eureka Atom Pro   <\/a><\/td><td>\n  Universal\n  <\/td><td>\n  Flat, 75 mm\n  <\/td><td>\n  Infinite worm gear\n  <\/td><td>\n  Around 3 s\n  <\/td><td>\n  High-volume coffee shop \n  (Under 5 kg per day)\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>   <a href=\"https:\/\/www.b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/6435\/Eureka-Zenith-65E-Gloss-Black\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">Eureka Zenith 65E<\/a>   <\/td><td>\n  Espresso\n  <\/td><td>\n  Flat, 65 mm\n  <\/td><td>\n  Infinite worm gear\n  <\/td><td>\n  Around 5.5 s\n  <\/td><td>\n  Medium-volume coffee shop \n  (2-3 kg per day)\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><td>\n  NO\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>   <a href=\"https:\/\/www.b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/6927\/Eureka-Atom-Specialty-65E-Automatic-Grinder-Metallic-Grey-Diamond\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">Eureka Atom Specialty 65E<\/a>   <\/td><td>\n  Espresso\n  <\/td><td>\n  Flat, 65 mm\n  <\/td><td>\n  Infinite worm gear\n  <\/td><td>\n  Around 5.5 s\n  <\/td><td>\n  Medium-volume coffee shop \n  (2-3 kg per day)\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>   <a href=\"https:\/\/b2b.coffeedesk.com\/product\/6873\/Mahlkonig-Ek-43S-Black\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (otwiera si\u0119 na nowej zak\u0142adce)\">Mahlkonig EK43<\/a>   <\/td><td>\n  Universal\n  <\/td><td><\/td><td>\n  Stepless\n  <\/td><td>\n  Around 2 s\n  <\/td><td>\n  High-volume coffee shop (unlimited)\n  <\/td><td>\n  YES\n  <\/td><td>\n  NO\n  <\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional\namenities &#8211; small features making life easier such as, for example, adjustable\nportafilter holder, regulation and illumination of the dispensing nozzle,\nsound-proofing, availability of the burrs coated with Titanium or other\nmaterials increasing their lifespan, as well as the most innovative gadgets\nlike a built-in scale or option to adjust rotations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All those elements add to the final image of a grinder.
