Big burrs and a powerful motor. The Coffee Tech DF83 grinder is an exciting option for anyone looking to explore bigger burrs, especially as it starts at an excellent price point. Shop DF83: https://alternativebrewing.com.au/products/coffee-tech-df83-single-dose-grinder. At 1400 rpm, the large 83mm burrs do their work fast, whether you’re grinding for filter or espresso – much like its younger sibling the Coffee tech DF64. This single-dose all-purpose grinder also features step-less adjustment and comes with a metal dosing ring for a mess-free routine.

FWIW: There are o-rings underneath both the top and bottom burr to stop any ground coffee from leaking under the burr sets in the grinds chamber.

De-clumper Screen is a new design – like a Sideways ‘Y’. It works quite well, and though limited testing has not clumped up. As mentioned in the video – the burr size and motor speed seem to help evacuate a lot of ground quite quickly, then in using the bellows early – whilst running and then a little when the motor is off – will assist with the rest.

However, being a bigger burr set, means there’s more space on the burrs for coffee to build up. In that case, it’s important to give the burrs a regular clean to ensure the burr chamber stays clean.

Large 83mm burrs

The highlight of this grinder is its massive burrs. The standard-design 83mm burrs produce a quality grind in a wide range of sizes. Paired with the 550 motor which runs at 1400 rpm, you can expect to have your dose ready pretty quickly. For more optimal performance, you can swap out the stock burrs with an SSP espresso burr.

Low-retention grinding

One of the advantages of the DF83’s design is the minimal retention after grinding. The angled coffee chute and the bellows work together to expel as much of the grind as possible, so your dosing stays accurate. Designed for single-dose grinding, the DF83 doesn’t have a hopper but offers the possibility of being fitted with one if you plan to use it in a cafe setting.

Stepless adjustment

Your perfect grind size is never too far away. The DF83 offers micrometric adjustment that lets you grind with precision. Another improvement with the design is the graduated dial which takes out the guesswork about your last grind setting.
