With the holidays quickly approaching, it’s time to start making your list! If you’d like to treat yourself or a loved one to coffeehouse supplies, nothing beats a premium espresso grinder. A great grinder is one of the most important components in making quality espresso. Whether you’re looking for a budget-friendly pick or one with cutting-edge technology, we’re here to help you find the perfect fit. Here are a few of our favorite grinders that will complement your espresso machine:
The Utilitarian
If you’re shopping for someone who’s serious about coffee and wants to bring out the best possible flavors from the beans, a high-quality grinder is essential. You’ll want to look for an option with burrs and avoid blade grinders. That being said, a great grinder doesn’t have to cost a fortune to do its job well. If you or your gift recipient would prefer a utilitarian product that shows up to work every day, you may want to consider the products highlighted above.
Each of the grinders in this category are under $1,000 and perform at a level above what you’d find at non-specialty stores.
The Step Up
Looking for an option that’s a cut above the everyday grinders? Here are our recommendations:
If you need an espresso grinder with faster grinding capability and premium features like anti-static and cooling technology, take a look at the options above. These machines offer enhanced user-friendliness, such as programmable recipes, quiet grinding, and intuitive touch screen display.
The Scientific
If you’re looking for a grinder that was engineered for a specific purpose, you may enjoy the Ditting 807 Lab Sweet or Mahlkonig E65S GBW (but for different reasons).
Ditting 807 Lab Sweet is designed to create a highly viscous brew and bring out the unique sweetness of the beans. If you love a sweet and balanced extraction, investing in this grinder with its specially engineered, steel cast burrs is worth considering.
For precision in dosing, we love the Mahlkonig E65S GBW. Similar to the original E65S by Mahlkonig, this grinder is ultra-fast and quiet. However, this model features built-in scales that eliminate the need for timed dosing and ensure the utmost accuracy.
If you’re excited to get a head start on your holiday shopping, the coffee lovers in your life are sure to appreciate the gift of a premium espresso grinder. Whether the person you’re shopping for prefers a no-frills option or something more extravagant, you can find it all at Voltage Coffee Supply. Looking for a new espresso machine?
