EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Turin SD40 V2 is priced at $369 and is designed for beginners, making it accessible for those new to espresso grinding. In contrast, the Turin DF64V, with a price of $899, targets intermediate users looking for a more advanced grinder experience. Both grinders fall into the semi-automatic category, but they cater to different skill levels within the espresso community.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of grinding information, the SD40 V2 utilizes a conical burr with a diameter of 40mm and features a stepped adjustment system, suitable for varying grinder settings from pour-over to espresso. On the other hand, the DF64V is equipped with a flat burr, larger at 64mm, and offers a stepless adjustment for fine-tuning grind size. Both grinders have a single-dose hopper type and retain similar retention levels of less than 0.2g, providing efficient dosing. The SD40 uses an on/off toggle for dosing, while the DF64V employs an on/off button, offering convenience for users.

Features Comparison

When comparing key features, the DF64V has adjustable RPM settings ranging from 600 to 1800 RPM, allowing for more versatility in grind speed, whereas the SD40 V2 operates at a fixed 400 RPM. Both models have a grind range suitable for espresso and pour-over, but the DF64V's stepless adjustment and swappable burrs provide more customization for experienced users. In contrast, the SD40 V2 features a straightforward design without swappable burrs, making it simpler for beginners to operate while still achieving quality results.
