EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

Grinder 1, the Mx. Cool Aries, is priced at $1400 and is designed for advanced users, while Grinder 2, the Turin SD40 V2, retails at $369 and caters to beginners. Both are semi-automatic grinders, but their target skill levels highlight the differences in their intended user base.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, both grinders use conical burrs, but the Mx. Cool Aries has a burr diameter of 83mm made from titanium-coated stainless steel, while the Turin SD40 V2 features a smaller 40mm steel burr. The Aries uses a stepless adjustment mechanism, allowing precise changes in grind size with a scale of 1 micron, whereas the SD40 V2 employs a stepped adjustment with a 10-micron scale, offering less granularity. Both grinders utilize a single dose hopper type, but the primary dosing method is an on/off toggle for both, which simplifies operation.

Features Comparison

When considering key features, the Mx. Cool Aries has adjustable RPM settings ranging from 90 to 150 RPM, enhancing versatility in grind consistency. Its grind range covers everything from pour-over to espresso, while it also allows for swappable burrs, which can be beneficial for maintaining or upgrading the grinder over time. On the other hand, the Turin SD40 V2 has a fixed RPM of 400 with no option for adjustments, and it does not have swappable burrs, limiting its adaptability for advanced preferences.
