Coffee grinders

Freshly grinding coffee is worthwhile, as many volatile aromas escape shortly after grinding. Therefore, we recommend grinding whole beans with a coffee grinder just before preparation. This way, you always have control over the grind size and achieve the best flavor. We'll give you a brief overview of the different types of coffee grinders and how they differ.

Baratza Encore ESP Pro kaufen

The Baratza Encore ESP is a further development of the Baratza Encore and the perfect introduction to espresso at home! The internal components have been completely redesigned, simplifying operation and improving performance.

With this grinder, you can grind anything you want, from espresso to filter coffee. We're thrilled!


What does the Baratza Encore ESP include?


Single Dose Cup with Adapter

With the dosing cup, you can easily transfer your grounds into a 54mm or 58mm portafilter using the adapter ring. Grind – transfer – tamp – done.


grinder

The conical 40mm M2 steel grinder works precisely and consistently for filter and espresso applications.

Quick-release grinding ring and cleaning

The Encore ESP grinding ring can be removed quickly and easily without tools, speeding up the necessary cleaning and maintenance of your coffee grinder.

Gearbox

The Encore ESP uses a direct reduction gear that connects the grinding cone to the DC motor. Thermal overload protection protects the motor from overheating in the event of overload, for example, if the grinder jams.

Ground coffee in the coffee grinder

The design of the Encore ESP is optimized so that hardly any ground material remains in the grinding chamber, thus enabling almost loss-free grinding.

Grinding size recommendations

The Encore ESP is optimized for espresso in grind settings #1-20 and filter coffee in grind settings #21-40.

Motor

The powerful, high-torque DC motor reliably drives the conical grinder. The slow speed keeps the grinding material cool, allowing for longer grinding cycles. The motor is protected by a thermal overload cut-out that also resets automatically.

calibration

The innovative calibration system ensures that the coffee grinder instantly produces the perfect grind for most espresso machines. If necessary, the grinder can be readjusted using the tools included in the packaging. Thus, the Baratza Encore ESP delivers the perfect grind for every coffee and every espresso machine.

Speed control

The Encore ESP's unique speed control uses a combination of a reduction gear and electronic control to maintain the speed at 550 rpm. This low speed ensures that heat, noise, and static buildup are kept to a minimum. Furthermore, it allows the coffee beans to be transported very evenly into the grinding chamber.

On/Off switch

The Encore ESP features a redesigned, ergonomic on/off switch.

Dimensions

W x D x H: 11.5cm x 15cm x 34cm

Bialetti Mokkakanne Kaffee Set kaufen

The Bialetti moka pot is the classic home coffee brewing method. However, the taste experience often leaves much to be desired. This is due, among other things, to old, dirty pots, pre-ground coffee from the supermarket, and improper preparation. Coffee from a moka pot can taste really good, though.

The new Brikka from Bialetti , the stylish C3S Max hand grinder from Timemore , and our all-rounder from Brazil make it possible. With this set, you can create a first-class, intense mocha with a delicate creamy texture at home with little effort and a small investment.

Product features Bialetti Mocha New Brikka

Bialetti stands for classic mocha with a traditionally simple design, whether at home or on vacation. The iconic mocha pot has been given a new pressure valve, making the mocha taste much sweeter, more balanced, and less burnt. What's more, with the Brikka, you can now even enjoy your mocha with a little crema! This makes the taste much closer to an espresso than with previous models.

The new Brikka is suitable for gas and electric stoves with ceramic hobs.

Cleaning should be done by hand using detergent.

Material: aluminum

Capacity: 150ml (4 cups)

Dishwasher safe: No

Induction hob: With adapter plate also for induction hobs (not included)

Product features Timemore CS3 Max hand mill

GRIND VALUE ADJUSTMENT IN STEPS: Turn the knob from a finer to a coarser grind according to your preference in about half the adjustment steps as C2 (espresso settings start about 8 clicks backward from the starting point); you can use this hand grinder for everything from espresso to filter coffee to French press.

INTEGRATED METAL HOUSING FOR LONGER DURABILITY: The aluminum alloy housing makes the Timemore grinder a convenient coffee grinder for everyday use, while traveling, or camping. Durability is guaranteed by the stainless steel crank, drive shaft, and conical burrs.

COMPACT BUT PRACTICAL: The perfect size and weight of only 473g make the grinder easy to transport and hold in your hand, yet sufficient capacity of 30-35 grams, enough for preparing one or two cups of filter coffee or espresso.

Housing material: aluminum

Grinding discs: stainless steel

Coffee grinders with disc grinder

Electric coffee grinders with disc grinders are widely used. The grinding discs, usually made of stainless steel, ensure a fairly even grind, provided the grinding discs are not blunt. Centrifugal force pushes the beans from the inside out, where they are ground between the grinding discs, which become increasingly narrower towards the outside. In the best cases, the grinding level can be continuously adjusted. The lower disc is usually screwed in place, while the upper disc adjusts the distance between the discs and thus the grinding level. It should be noted that these often operate at a higher speed than conical grinders, which can generate more frictional heat. If the ground coffee gets too hot during grinding, the coffee will taste bitter or burnt. Therefore, the lower the speed and the sharper the grinding discs, the less frictional heat.

Coffee grinders with conical grinder

Many hand grinders, entry-level electric coffee grinders, and even very high-quality coffee grinders for the catering industry have conical burrs of varying quality built into them. Theoretically, the low speed generates less frictional heat, which means the coffee beans are ground more gently. However, this usually only applies to high-quality coffee grinders. Cheaper coffee grinders with weak motors and low torque sometimes reach higher speeds than grinders with disc burrs and also generate unwanted frictional heat.

The conical grinder consists of a serrated cone that rotates within a fixed, equally serrated, ring-shaped tunnel. The distance between the cone and the tunnel decreases toward the bottom. Gravity pushes the coffee beans downward into the grinder and grinds them. The conical grinder also offers infinitely adjustable grinding settings, depending on the model.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of coffee grinders are there?

Most coffee grinders have either a conical grinder or a disc grinder, while cheaper and older models often have an impact grinder.

How does an impact mill work?

Old or cheap coffee grinders are often equipped with an impact grinder. This consists of propeller-shaped blades that chop the coffee beans rather than grind them. This inevitably leads to unevenly sized coffee particles, a heterogeneous ground coffee, and thus uneven extraction during coffee preparation. Therefore, we strongly advise against coffee grinders with impact grinders.

Is there a difference between ceramic and stainless steel grinders?

Ceramic grinders are often installed in fully automatic coffee machines because they are more space-saving and less expensive than stainless steel grinders. While stainless steel is more robust than ceramic, ceramic grinders are less sensitive to frictional heat.

Which grinder is best for coffee?

There's no single answer to this question. Choosing the right coffee grinder depends on the intended use (home or professional), the type of ground coffee (filter coffee or espresso), the handling (electric or hand grinder), and the available budget. If money is no object, the most consistent ground coffee can be expected from a high-quality, low-speed conical grinder. In reality, however, several factors must be considered. Home baristas often approach the matter with a hand coffee grinder and subsequently invest in an electric coffee grinder.
