Machine Overview

The Niche Duo, priced at $700, is an advanced semi-automatic grinder known for its high-end capabilities, making it suitable for experienced users. In contrast, the Turin DF54 is an entry-level grinder priced at $229, designed for beginners looking to explore espresso and other brewing methods.

Brewing Comparison

Both grinders utilize flat burr grinding methods, offering distinct specifications. The Niche Duo has an 83mm hardened steel burr, while the Turin DF54 features a smaller 54mm custom stainless steel burr. Both grinders have a stepless adjustment system allowing precise control over grind size, and they feature a single-dose hopper type with an on/off toggle (Niche) and button (Turin) for dosing, providing low retention (< 0.1 g) to maintain freshness.

Features Comparison

In terms of key features, the Niche Duo does not have adjustable RPM, while the Turin DF54’s specifications do not specify its RPM characteristics. The Niche offers a grind range specifically for espresso, whereas the Turin provides a full grind range from pour-over to espresso. The Niche Duo has swappable burrs, enhancing its versatility, while the DF54 does not provide this option.
