Machine Overview

The Niche Zero grinder is priced at $580 and is designed for intermediate skill levels, while the Turin DF64 Gen 1 is more budget-friendly at $350, also catering to users with intermediate skills. Both grinders fall under the semi-automatic category and are manufactured from aluminum, but they feature different designs and materials for their accents.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, the Niche Zero utilizes a conical burr with a 63mm diameter made from hardened steel, while the Turin DF64 employs a 64mm flat burr made from stainless steel. Both grinders offer stepless adjustment, allowing precise grind size changes with a scale of 1 micron. They utilize a single-dose hopper, which helps to minimize retention, with the Niche Zero retaining less than 0.1g and the DF64 retaining less than 0.25g. Primary dosing for both grinders is executed through an on/off toggle mechanism.

Features Comparison

Key features vary slightly between the two models. The Niche Zero does not have adjustable RPM, while the DF64 operates at a fixed RPM of 800. Both grinders provide a grind range suitable for various brew methods from pour-over to espresso. The Niche Zero has non-swappable burrs, whereas the DF64 allows for easy swapping of burrs, providing versatility for users looking to customize their grinding experience.
