DF54, DF64 Gen 2, DF83 Gen 2 — side by side.
Flat burrs cut beans between two parallel discs, producing a highly uniform particle size — favoured by espresso enthusiasts for clarity and precision. The DF64 Gen 2's 64mm flat burrs are larger than most home grinders, which means faster grinding, less heat per dose, and better consistency at fine espresso settings.
The DF64 retains under 0.1g of ground coffee inside the machine. You get exactly what you put in — no stale grounds from previous sessions. The 58mm aluminum dosing cup catches grounds cleanly. This is essential for dialling in espresso: every shot starts fresh.
The plasma generator neutralises static charge inside the grinder. Without it, fine espresso grounds cling to the bin walls and clump together. With it, grounds flow cleanly into the dosing cup — less mess, more accurate dosing, better puck preparation.
Anti-popcorn prevents beans from bouncing erratically in the chute before reaching the burrs. It ensures a consistent, even bean feed — important for single-dose grinding where the DF64's 30g hopper gives you exact dose control without topping up between shots.
The stepless adjustment gives infinite fine-tuning. For espresso, start conservative (fine end of the dial) and adjust toward target shot time of 25–30 seconds for a 1:2 ratio. For pour-over, step up several positions coarser. For French press, coarser still. Every coffee and roast will require its own dial-in — note your settings when you find the sweet spot.
