EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Turin DF64 Gen 1 and the Turin DF54 are both semi-automatic espresso grinders, catering to different skill levels. The DF64, priced at $350, targets intermediate users, while the more affordable DF54, at $229, is designed for beginners. Both brands, Turin, are gaining traction for their quality espresso products, but their price points reflect the skill level they aim to serve.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, both grinders utilize flat burrs for consistent grinding results. The DF64 has a larger burr diameter of 64mm, while the DF54 features a smaller 54mm burr. Both grinders offer a stepless adjustment feature, allowing fine-tuning of grind settings with a precision of 1 micron. They also both have single-dose hoppers, which facilitate the grinding of specific amounts without retaining excess grounds.

Features Comparison

When examining key features, the DF64 stands out with a retention rate of less than 0.25 grams and the ability to swap burrs, enhancing its versatility. The DF54, while having a lower retention of less than 0.1 grams, lacks swappable burrs but maintains the same grind range suitable for all brew methods. Neither grinder provides adjustable RPM, with the DF64 operating at a constant speed of 800 RPM, focusing on stability in the grind process. Overall, the DF64 offers more advanced features suited for a higher skill level, while the DF54 remains a reliable entry-point grinder.
