D40+ Single Dose Coffee Grinder (Black)

Excellent value for price. It has no problem with an espresso grind. The bellows work well. It’s obviously not zero retention, but darn close. For a conical burr grinder this is darn, darn good. You’d really have to be an espresso expert to distinguish it from a flat burr grinder. Plus, it’s very small opposed to most other grinders. In the video I filmed it in front of my air fryer for perspective. The construction is solid powdered aluminum. I do wish the bellows were a little better constructed, but it works and that’s the most important thing. I’m very, very happy!

I am new to coffee grinders, espresso machines and all the accessories so tried to do a fair amount of research before any purchases of such equipment. I wanted something that would perform well but a small kitchen makes size a large part of the consideration. I purchased a Breville Bambino Plus so needed a companion grinder. I have used this grinder daily now for two months and it has performed very well. I had to set the dial up to 6 for the beans I am using. There is little retention, I usually get the same wt out as put in, there is never more than 1 gram difference. I find clumping varies, depending on the bean - I buy beans from a local roaster and one type clumps a bit more than the other, but in my limited experience I do not consider the clumping excessive. I do use one of those WDT tools, and seems to work well, I get consistent results. I do not find the noise at all excessive or objectionable, especially since it only takes a short amount of time to grind. I was pleasantly surprised at how sturdy it felt when I took it out of the box (it comes very well packed), has a good weight for its size. Love the look of it and the size is perfect next to my Bambino Plus with my limited counter space. Time will tell, of course, but so far I am very pleased with this purchase. I am so much happier with the espressos coming from my machines than I ever was with inconsistent coffee shop drinks.

Out of the box, follow these moves:Rinse and dry hopper. Unscrew hopper fastener from device, place hopper on and replace screw with hopper in place. Plug in the device. You're ready.Using my Gevi 15 bar espresso machine, I decided to experiment with espresso grinding first. The finest setting was very clumpy, so I sifted the grounds/powder before loading. I gave the basket the babiest tamp possible. The power toggle button starts/stops the grinding process. Otherwise, once it is plugged in, it's basically always on, as made obvious by the red power LED light.Setting 1 completely choked my machine and no water made it through. The superfine setting is useless to me, as it cripples my machine, so I went up to levels 5/6. It produced the tiniest intermittent drops, making me believe one more adjustment would do the trick. I went up to levels 8/9 and that was exactly enough to pull a good shot. In my experiment, anything below 8 won't do anything.The highest coarse setting was just doable for drip and pour methods. I'd definitely prefer something coarser for French Press, but this machine will not allow it. Worst case scenario, I'll just use my blade grinder for that. I guess. I mean, I can see this being OKAY for press, but I'd like slightly bigger grinds for that.One thing I don't appreciate is how the device is always ON once plugged in. To get around having to always unplug the machine, I hooked it to a smart plug and set up an Alexa routine.At 8am, it powers itself on for a couple hours, around my coffee-making window, and turns itself off for a couple hours. Then, it turns on again in the afternoon for my second cup. It stays on for about 2 hours and powers down until the next morning. Otherwise there's no way to power off this grinder without unplugging it.Overall, this is a fine device that gets the job done well. You may need a distributor to stir the espresso. Mine is in the mail, so I sifted for these results. Another reviewer mirrored my findings, but I felt I needed to find out for myself. That reviewer was 100% right.A.

Excelente! Tiene muchos tipos de molienda y es el adecuado para hacer catacion y preparar en métodos de filtrado

Muy mala experiencia, me he gastado 199 USD y no tengo nada. Servicio al cliente pésimo de Amazon y el fabricante MiiCoffee.Compré un producto que en su descripción dice 220V y cuando lo conecte se quemó. Es de 110V como se puede ver en la foto de la parte inferior. Cuando abrí el equipo lo coloqué en la encimera de la cocina, sin ver la pegatina inferior claro. Sí abrí el manual de usuario donde no detalla el voltaje, como también se ve en la foto, pero habiendo comprado un producto de 220v por que iba a estar mal la descripción de Amazon. En cualquier caso la única opción para devolver el producto en Amazon es pagando yo el envío, que desde Perú supone prácticamente el precio del mismo y la respuesta del fabricante fue peor todavía. Cuando contacto al servicio técnico de MiiCofee y les explico lo sucedido me dicen que contacte con Amazon y que ellos solo vende ese equipo en 110V. Les informo que en Amazon está así y que si al menos me pueden suministrar el repuesto de la placa quemada. No me dan ninguna solución más que darme un descuento si compro un producto superior.El producto no se que tal será pero su servicio al cliente es malísimo además ni les importaba que la descripción estuviera así en Amazon, según ellos la suya en su página estaba bien. Si no lo corrigen habrá más reclamos y accidentes con otros clientes fuera de USA.

Unless you are making tons of shots daily this grinder simply works great. I use it several times per day for my lattes. I have a zpress manual grinder and can honestly say going with this electric grinder has been a blessing for espresso. No regrets!

Bought this back and june when i really my Barratza no longer grinded as fine as i wanted. It is great for espresso. However, I would not recommend it for coarser grinder. I use about 4-6 times a week is it produces a consistent grind size with minimal retention (.2 grams at most). This is a great option that doesn’t break the budget.
