Commercial Coffee Grinders for Sale
A commercial coffee grinder is a heavy-duty piece of equipment designed for use in settings such as coffee shops and cafes. It is essential for producing the fine and consistent grind required for espresso extraction. When choosing a commercial espresso grinder, it's important to consider factors such as grinding power, grind adjustments, grind size range, RPMs, hopper grinder vs. single-dose grinder, low retention and anti-static measures, and build quality. Additionally, guidance from commercial experts can be valuable in selecting the the best espresso grinder for your establishment.
Features to Look for in a Commercial Espresso Grinder
The grinder must excel in producing an exceptionally fine grind, with the added capability of micrometric adjustments for precise and consistent modifications affecting shot timing. A significant drawback occurs if even the slightest change in settings results in a shot time shift exceeding 6-10 seconds. However, these are merely the fundamental prerequisites.
Beyond the basics, several criteria significantly contribute to an optimal espresso grinding experience:
1. Consistent Dosing: A reliable espresso grinder should deliver the same output (within +/- 0.3 grams) as the input, ensuring a consistent coffee dose.
2. Low Retention: It's crucial to minimize the retention of old coffee. The grinder should release as little previously ground coffee as possible in the grinding chamber or chute.
3. Micrometric Adjustments: Espresso burr grinders may feature stepped or stepless adjustments, both capable of controlling shot time by fine-tuning the grind size.
4. Fluffy Grounds: Avoiding clumpy grounds is vital, as they can lead to uneven extraction. Grounds that consistently maintain a fluffy texture should be a key consideration in your purchase decision.
5. Consistent Grinds: While uniformity is essential, a slight presence of microdust (fines) can enhance the mouthfeel of the shot.
6. Smooth Workflow: Espresso grounds, being fine particles, have the potential to create a mess. A top-notch commercial espresso grinder simplifies the process, making it clean and effortless to transfer grounds into the portafilter.
7. Intelligent Dosing: Some espresso burr grinders incorporate timers accurate to a tenth of a second, ensuring nearly identical coffee doses with each use. Others employ built-in scales for precision.
8. Single Dosing: Optimized for "single dosing," certain grinders require measuring beans before placing them in the grinding chamber and lack a traditional hopper.
9. Solid Construction/Engineering: Given the heightened demands of espresso grinding, the equipment should boast a robust and well-built construction to ensure durability and reliability.
