What reviewers agree on
Each point is made by at least two of the independent reviews linked after it. We don't own or test the products we cover; see how we choose.
- Dosing by weight is the main difference from the Sette 270, and it removes the need for a separate scale. (Coffeeness, Brew Coffee Home, Just Coffee and Me)
- The scale is accurate to about 0.1 g when set up correctly. (Coffeeness, Just Coffee and Me)
- The portafilter or container has to be handled carefully for the weight to read correctly. (Coffeeness, Just Coffee and Me)
- Grinding is fast, around 3.5 to 5.5 g per second. (Coffeeness, Brew Coffee Home)
- Retention is low. (Coffeeness, Just Coffee and Me)
Worth knowing
- Reviewers differ on noise: one was not bothered by it (Coffeeness), one found it loud. (Just Coffee and Me)
- Without the scale, the Sette 270 times the grind instead, for $399.95.
Raised by one reviewer: it is about 16 in tall, which blocked one reviewer's overhead cabinets (Just Coffee and Me).
How it compares
- vs. Baratza Sette 270 ($399.95): same grinder with timed dosing instead of weighing. $200 less.
- vs. Eureka Mignon Specialità ($549 at Seattle Coffee Gear): stepless flat burrs and very quiet, with timed dosing.
- vs. DF54 (about $212–249): a single-dose flat-burr grinder with stepless adjustment. No hopper and no scale; you weigh beans for each shot.
