EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Turin DF64 Gen 1 is positioned as an intermediate-level espresso grinder with a retail price of $350, making it a more premium option compared to the Fellow Opus, which is designed for beginners and priced at $195. Both grinders are categorized as semi-automatic, catering to different user expertise and budgets within the espresso grinder market.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, the Turin DF64 employs flat burrs with a 64mm diameter, offering a stepless adjustment for fine-tuning grind size with a precision of 1 micron. Conversely, the Fellow Opus uses conical burrs measuring 40mm and features a stepped adjustment, allowing for a more straightforward setting of grind sizes with 5-micron increments. Both grinders utilize a single-dose hopper, but the dosing methods differ: the DF64 has an on/off toggle along with an auto-off feature, while the Opus incorporates a timed auto-stop with an option for manual control.

Features Comparison

Focusing on key features, the Turin DF64 has a grind range suitable for everything from pour-over to espresso and boasts swappable burrs for customization. The Fellow Opus also has a versatile grind range fulfilling a similar purpose but does not support adjustable RPM, as it is fixed at 350 RPM. While both grinders feature swappable burrs, the DF64's design allows for finer tuning at the micron level, making it potentially more appealing to serious coffee enthusiasts.
