Machine Overview

The Niche Duo espresso grinder is priced at $700 and targets advanced users, while the Turin DF64 Gen 2 is priced at $399 and is designed for intermediate skill levels. Both grinders fall under the category of semi-automatic and are suitable for home use. They each provide quality and performance but cater to different budgets and expertise levels.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, the Niche Duo utilizes an 83mm flat burr made of hardened steel while the Turin DF64 Gen 2 employs a 64mm stainless steel burr. Both grinders feature stepless adjustment, allowing for precise grind size modifications, and use a single-dose hopper type for optimal dosing. The primary dosing method for the Niche Duo is an on/off toggle switch, while the DF64 Gen 2 uses an on/off button along with a 45-second auto-off feature, which may enhance convenience and reduce waste.

Features Comparison

Key features include the Niche Duo’s grinding range limited to espresso and a lower retention of less than 0.1 grams, while the Turin DF64 Gen 2 has a broader grind range, accommodating from pour-over to espresso. Notably, both grinders come with swappable burrs, enabling users to customize their grinding experience. However, the Niche Duo operates at a fixed RPM of 530, whereas the DF64 Gen 2 runs at a higher RPM of 1400, which may contribute to different grinding speeds and flavors.
