EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Mazzer Super Jolly is priced at $1,300 and is geared towards advanced users, while the Turin DF83 V2 is more affordable at $899, targeting intermediate users. Both grinders are semi-automatic, making them suitable for home or small business applications. The Mazzer brand is recognized for its high-quality construction, while Turin is also gaining traction for its user-friendly design. The difference in skill levels suggests that the Mazzer may offer more complex features for experienced espresso enthusiasts.

Brewing Comparison

Both grinders utilize flat burrs, with the Mazzer featuring a 64mm hardened high carbon steel burr, and the Turin utilizing an 83mm stainless steel burr. Each grinder employs a stepless adjustment mechanism allowing for fine-tuning grind settings at a 1-micron scale, beneficial for achieving specific espresso brew strengths. The Mazzer uses a hopper type dosing method, allowing for larger quantities to be ground at once, while the Turin employs a single-dose configuration, promoting freshness and reducing waste. The retention of ground coffee is also lower in the Turin at less than 0.2g, versus Mazzer's retention of less than 1g.

Features Comparison

In terms of features, both grinders support swappable burrs, enabling users to update their grinding capabilities efficiently. The grind range for both devices spans from pour-over to espresso, accommodating various brewing methods. Neither grinder offers adjustable RPM; however, both operate at a RPM of 1400, ensuring consistent grind quality. Despite these similarities, the Mazzer's design features a more significant burr size which may result in a quieter and more uniform grind compared to the Turin.
