EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Turin DF64 Gen 1 is priced at $350 and is suitable for intermediate skill levels. In contrast, the Mazzer Super Jolly retails at around $1300, targeting advanced users. Both grinders are classified as semi-automatic, with Turin aiming for those beginning their journey in espresso crafting, while Mazzer caters to seasoned baristas. The disparity in pricing reflects the intended user expertise and potentially the build quality.

Brewing Comparison

Both grinders employ flat burrs, but they differ in their material; the Turin uses stainless steel while the Mazzer features hardened high carbon steel. Each grinder offers a stepless adjustment, allowing for precise control over grind size, essential for espresso preparation. The Turin utilizes a single dose hopper, which minimizes retention at less than 0.25g, while the Mazzer has a traditional hopper system that features programmable timed dosing with slightly higher retention of under 1g. These different systems offer various benefits in terms of grind freshness and convenience.

Features Comparison

Key features include the burr swappability present in both grinders, which allows users to personalize their grinding experience and maintain longevity. The grind range for both grinders covers a full spectrum suitable for espresso and pour-over, ensuring versatility in brewing methods. However, only the Mazzer Super Jolly operates at a higher RPM of 1400, resulting in a faster grind speed compared to the 800 RPM of the Turin DF64. Neither grinder offers adjustable RPM settings, indicating a degree of simplicity in their operational design.
