Quite good dedicated espresso grinder

I like almost everything about this grinder. The only serious downside is a motor. It uses a direct drive, 300W, AC motor, that drives large burrs. This configuration is bound to have a very low initial torque, so every time you have managed to clog the grinder's shute with oily beans, you will have to take it apart and clean it. Not a big deal, but when you have just 5 min in the morning to make yourself a coffee, this can be very annoying. I myself prefer medium roast, so this issue almost non-existent for me.

Another thing that happens often because of the same motor issue, is a stuck grinder when you take the bin hopper of, and then put it back: the residual bins and their bits that remain on the top of the burrs will be redistributed and pressed down by the hooper’s pipe butt, so that they will be pressed tightly to the burrs, and this pressure is enough to prevent the motor from spinning. The symptom is the same as if the shute is clogged, but in reality, you just need to move the hopper a bit up when the grinder is on, and once it unclogs itself you can press it down firmly again. So, hopefully, this tip can help you.

On the other hand, this motor configuration makes the grinder simple mechanically/eclectically and very reliable. It can serve many many years.

I should mention that my coffee grind is very consistent now, and blind testing showed a noticeable taste improvement compared to my old Breville Smart grinder.
I also really liked the price and the overall service from espressocoffeeshop.com. I ordered it from Canada, and the price, including taxes, custom duties and currier shipping, was still much less than what I could find in Canada (and I was looking high and low), both online and in retail shops. Overall, I am happy with the product and even more happy with the service from espressocoffeeshop.com!

Arrived in less than a week, performs excellently

Great grinder and great service, from Treviso to Sydney in less than 7 days!

Incredible grinder

Great quality grinder. Easy to operate, grinds coffee beans very precisely, and beautiful to look at!

Very High Quality Grinder and Great Price

I was looking for a good espresso grinder for a reasonable price and decided to try this one. The product arrived to the US from Italy in just a few days, and the transaction went very smoothly. The grinder itself is built very well, and the amount of adjustability is great. It is possible to switch grind sizes, though might require some note taking on exactly where you need the knob positioned for different coffee types. The Perfetto might be a better option if you're brewing a wider variety of coffee types. I really like the timed dispensation, it gives output that's usually pretty close to exactly the correct dose I need for whatever drink I'm making.

Efficient and quiet!

This grinder is hard to beat at the price point. It is very quiet and grinds a double shot in about 9 seconds. The consistency is great and easier to control than my old Baratza 270. It’s also a very beautiful and compact machine on the counter. The adjustment knob allows for a lot of precision but takes a bit of getting used to given how little one has to move it from one roast to the next to dial things in.

Best online shop

First time customer from the Espresso Coffee Shop. I was little a bit worry to make the order all the way from Italy to the US but the package came in perfect and the price is excellent. Thank you very much.

Excellent coffee grinder

We’ve only just bought our first espresso machine and this grinder complements it perfectly. We are still very much novices but love our coffee and find this grinder very easy to use and look forward to honing our skills with it.

Great grinder and fast shipping

The grinder arrived quickly, even though was coming from another part of the world, which is much appreciated. It's a nice grinder that produces nice fluffy grinds, looks stylish on bench and takes a very little space compare to many other grinders with the same burr's size.

Pleasing overall

Prompt delivery from Italy to Australia and arrived well packaged.
Well constructed and I anticipate should last a long time.
I use it single dosing and it grinds very consistently producing excellent shots.
Minor gripes are that it won't grind fine enough for some espresso roasts that I had no trouble going fine enough with in other grinders, therefore requiring me to increase the dose from 19 to 22g to get an acceptable extraction. I contacted ECS to enquire about burr alignment or whether it might be possible to shim it or something else to go finer, but never received a response.
The portafilter fork is useless so I have to grind into a separate tall plastic jug.
The hopper allowed too much debris and dust to escape the small hole around the little sliding stop, particularly with single dosing, so I had to seal this up with a little silicone, but it could have been designed much better.

Mignon Specialita

Excellent grinder that looks great.

Excellent espresso grinder, but…

Premium quality looking grinder with great functionality and ease of grinding. However, bean hopper lid arrived slightly cracked and the grinder was not working properly because of a disconnected wire inside. I had to remove the bottom of the grinder to fix it. The problems disappeared and it worked fine ever since.

Great Grinder

This is an excellent grinder. It is quiet and retains virtually no residual coffee. This means you can grind individual doses within 0.1 gram and no need to purge when changing coffee. It is difficult to set the grind the first time as the finest knob makes several full turns. Start by turning it all the way to the finest grind and work back a full turn.

quiet - efficient - sturdy

This grinder is my first "quality" machine. Many recommend investing in the grinder as well as the espresso machine. Looking at reviews of other grinders in this price range, this one stood out for the quality of the "build" and the quality of the grind.
So far it is performing well !
I highly recommend ordering from Espresso Coffee Shop. They made the ordering and shipping to the USA as easy as ordering from (forgive me for this ...) Amazon.

Pros:
- no clumping
- quiet grinding
- little mess (no problems with static - nice waterfall of grounds ejecting out of the chute)
- sturdy feel, quality build
- clean lines, nice design
- dual voltage (110 / 240) with the US version provided with the right (3 prong) plug
- clean display, easily adjustable timer for dosing

Cons
- grind dial on top of machine takes some getting used to. it is obviously not like the machines larger dials with marks for different grinds. However it allows for finer control over grind size
- lid to hopper fits on very tightly, requiring a bit of a struggle to get off

The Eureka Specialita makes good espresso much easier to obtain.

A solid, well built,and good looking espresso grinder. We are very happy with it, and it appears it will last a long time.
