    Compare to Eureka Mignon Specialita? An upgrade or downgrade?

    • bumluffa on 03/08/2024 - 22:52

      This would be an upgrade to the specialita imo if only for the more user friendly dial. Even aside from the fact that specialita isnt single dosing unless you mod it, you still have to mod the dial on the specialita to not make it super finicky since it's so tiny. Most of the fun of coffee is trying new beans so you'll be dialling in very often

      Also i think the specialita suffers from some retention issues whilst this has none

      • sqheaven on 03/08/2024 - 22:55

        Yes, dialing new beans or two different beans to switch from is a pain. I normally get a 500g or kg and go through it before buying something different. I measure beans and put in in the hopper so it's not that big of an issue.

  • MrBillions on 02/08/2024 - 15:01

    If you need a grinder or want an upgrade then this is a no brainer…get one..

  • Gav on 02/08/2024 - 15:12

    Listing says "DF64 provides one year warranty from China & Singapore". Be award that ACL means Amazon AU, as the retailer, is responsible for any warranty issues and you cannot be forced to send it to China or Singapore… it goes back to Amazon AU who take care of it for you. Sounds like they're going to learn this the hard way. Amazon AU is likely to do the right thing, though.

      Even when the listing on Amazon AU says "Ships from DF64 Coffee, Sold by DF64 Coffee", does that still mean that Amazon AU are the seller in the view of the ACCC? I can't see anywhere in that link that references "marketplace" sellers, so I guess they are the "seller" then. Agreed that Amazon AU would probably do the right thing, but wouldn't be so confident about the same if it were another marketplace seller, e.g. eBay.

      • Gav on 02/08/2024 - 17:29

        You're giving your money to Amazon AU, so they are whom you have the relationship with.

        • bcYield on 02/08/2024 - 18:12

          And it's not necessary for you to even know who is the seller or shipper.

        • kiitos on 07/08/2024 - 23:13

          Yet Amazon doesn't give you a tax invoice for items sold by other companies, and the other companies don't have to give a tax invoice if they're not in Australia. So the warranty may be the same situation?

        • GreenPlastic on 08/08/2024 - 13:14

          Invoice has seller's details on it. No mention of Amazon?

  • Amr911 on 02/08/2024 - 15:55

    I got a breville oracle and was told that using one of those good grinders will improve the coffee
    The question is how significant is this improvement? :D
    Is it woth it?

    • mielieu on 02/08/2024 - 17:49

      Grinders can make a huge (sometimes all the) difference, but the question is can you make improvements in other areas first? Using fresh/locally roasted beans, learning to dial them in properly etc will make similar improvements.

      • Amr911 on 02/08/2024 - 18:22

        I use fresh beans, not professional with the dialling, I do it just by the looks.

      @Amr911

      What don't you like about the coffee you are making now?

      Do you use fresh beans? Have you tried other styles of beans? Do you know how to dial a grinder in?

      Spending money on a 'fancy' new grinder won't make up for stale beans, poor technique and change the flavour much of a coffee roast you don't like.

      • Amr911 on 02/08/2024 - 18:21

        I use fresh beans, dial the grinder till I get good coffee and crema (just by the looks)
        Sometimes I pull 2 or 3 shots
        Most of time i like it, but its not like the ones I buy from cafes.

    • bleeder on 03/08/2024 - 13:29

      Compared to the built in Breville one it's a damatic difference, at the very least with a set of scales you will be able to make consistent coffee, built in Breville one is all over the place (probably because the auto-tamping sucks)

    • EnergicAU on 07/08/2024 - 01:10

      I run my Eureka with my Oracle so my Oracle is just a glorified Breville dual boiler now and the inbuilt grinder doesnt even get used anymore. Being able to get a consistent grind is the first step to get good coffee and consistent shots. I couldn't get it with the in-built grinder and always had inconsistent shots.

    I'm moving away from a pod machine, and I'm planning to try Aeropress for a while. Is this grinder overkill? If so, could someone please recommend a grinder which is not overkill? Thanks all.

    • cannedhams on 02/08/2024 - 19:57

      I use an aeropress at work. This is absolutely, positively, 1000% overkill. I use the $18 one from Kmart. Its fine.

      I grind the beans fine. Add water straight off the boil in a bowl. Then I put the bowl in the microwave and nuke it for 30 seconds. Then through the aeropress.

      Its okay. Probably somewhere between a drip machine and a percalator in terms of flavour. Not as good as a moka pot.

      • Peel on 02/08/2024 - 20:23
        +1

        This sounds like a pretty chaotic recipe but I guess helps show how versatile an aeropress is.

        In regards to this being overkill, in short yes it is.

        but… not necessarily overkill particularly when it comes to ~good~ electric grinders. Considering the cost of an aeropress is pretty low having a grinder that is approx 10X the price inherently makes it overkill, I would probably recommend a good quality hand grinder in the $100-$200 range as being your sweet spot. This is what I use for my aeropress. If your set on wanting electric or maybe dabbling in espresso in the future I'd say it isn't overkill but I would put it in the nice to have category. If you want to travel and make aeropress on the go then it is absolutely overkill as you'll have to buy a hand grinder or it means you are pregrinding your beans which is always going to be inferior.

        • cannedhams on 02/08/2024 - 21:18

          Im not sure, Id be interested to hear what you do with it (the aeropress). Im grinding it as fine as possible, adding water as hot as possible, and nuking it just to try and get it somewhere near espresso coffee. And Im still not getting especially close. I put a fair bit of pressure on it too when Im depressing the plunger.

          I use a moka pot at home; I like the minimalism and simplicity of it. I grind the beans about as fine as cooking salt, only fill up the tank half way, and leave the stove on light-medium so it takes its time. About as good as pod, not far off a proper machine.

          • Peel on 03/08/2024 - 15:39

            @cannedhams: I just use the James Hoffman ultimate aeropress recipe but not religiously I tend to vary it based on the coffee or what I'm feeling like. I don't think my changes necessarily make it better but it's fun to experiment with. I'd definitely not bother with the microwave method, tbh it seems like a bit of a pain and thermally the aeropress is quite good for a standard brew time.

            Unfortunately if your trying to make espresso with an Aeropress your going to always be disappointed. (You'll also always be disappointed with dare I say it but any grinder new for under $100, but that's not a hill I'm willing to die on) With the aeropress its a physics issue, to achieve 9 bar of pressure which is about standard for espresso I think you'll have to press with 500kgs of force. (This is just my approximate calculation using just my high school level physics knowledge so I could be wrong!) You can buy attachments etc that is meant to help but I haven't bothered and I think no matter what it's just the wrong tool for the job and a compromise is required. Fortunately the aeropress makes great non espresso style coffee.

            If you insist on espresso style I'd suggest you check out this video it helps explain it better than myself but also with some solutions and work arounds.

            @cannedhams: No advice anyone can give you and nothing you do will give you much improvement if at the end of the day you're using a $18 kmart grinder. That's just the unfortunate reality. If you think about it most of the science of coffee is about the consistency of the coffee grinds from which you extract the coffee liquid from. You'll only notice differences in changing any part of your coffee making process once you upgrade to a decent quality grinder

    • bleeder on 03/08/2024 - 13:30

      For aeropress I'd go a hand grinder, well better value for money. Although if you are grinding espresso super fine style then it's going to be a lot of work. If grinding course it's not too bad.

      • 303-Acid on 03/08/2024 - 14:07

        I use a Timemore C3 and rate it. Upgraded from a Porlex Mini. I was amazed at how quick the Timemore grinds compared to the Porlex, even for espresso it's quick. They're fairly cheap on aliexpress

    • bumluffa on 03/08/2024 - 22:55

      I've used aeropress for about 5 years and only recently bought this grinder to use with it (while I waited for my new proper coffee machine to arrive). Previously I used the aeropress ground option when buying beans.

      It has made a complete world of difference to the coffee even on an aeropress to me

                @BlunderCat: I checked out the vid, so you'd recommend the standard burrs?
                Sounds like you don'tneed the bellows.

                Lot of burr options - so the SSP espresso burrs are considered the best (for milk+choc notes) but he likes the standard ones for best overall and more layers of flavor.

                I noticed the direct website has the Gen2 for $563 (pre-order sale). Not sure about shipping cost but only a worldwide 1y warranty, is it fair to assume a 2y ACL warranty will apply if selling into Australia? Amazon seems better for this (and easy, sent back a broken blender within 2y, no questions asked).

                The DF64V looks good for $627 (and much slimmer/aesthetically pleasing).. thoughts?

For milk, the DLC upgrade gives some extra choc note punch, but at the expensive of some flavour for straight espresso. Your call from there as to your preference.

    I received my DF64 Gen 2 grinder order via Amazon.au direct from the distributor yesterday afternoon… Very quick international delivery, I ordered it on Friday morning and it arrived on Monday afternoon. It come with a black metal cup and collar rather than the silver ones that are shown in the product listing pics, I prefer the black for these, and the on/off button is silver not red like in the majority of review videos I’ve seen. The burrs it come with are the standard stainless steel burrs, which I am fine with for au$580… I am undecided if I want different burrs and which ones I want/will be best for my needs, after a bit of use if I feel I need to upgrade the burrs then that’s easy enough, however for the time being I’m glad I didn’t pay more for other burrs.

    The DF64 gen 2 grinder is easy to use and adjust, I have used the grinder 4 times since receiving it yesterday, and think for my fifth try it will be right and I have dialed it in perfectly. Currently I’m using just Aldi AU medium roast beans (can’t really go wrong for between $11.99 per kilo on special and $14.99), I fooked up the first try, it was way too fine, the second one was slightly too coarse, however it still made a very nice latte… The third attempt was holding just below 9 bar on my Breville dual boiler, and the fourth attempt was holding slightly beyond 9 bars of pressure.

    I think this new DF64 gen 2 grinder was worth every penny. However, I probably won’t use it everyday though, it’s a bit more time consuming with having to manually weigh the beans first, on the weekends and days I work from home I’ll definitely use it, but when I’m in hurry getting ready for a days work in the office I’ll probably still often use my Breville smart grinder pro because the process is quicker… I’m pleased to have both grinders for different situations.

    • jjoker on 07/08/2024 - 12:31

      Got mine from Amazon, however missing the collar

      • dlcx on 07/08/2024 - 20:01

        Same no collar but instead a rubber attachment that you can slide into the cup holder and then rest the cup on that… so it the angles the cup towards the spout exactly so it’s nice and close. No coffee goes anywhere else which is nice and clean.

        • jjoker on 07/08/2024 - 20:30

          I would prefer the collar as I could use it on the porta filter direct…now prob have to get a seperate one

            @jjoker: Yeah fair point, if wanting to grind direct into portafilter.

      You probably won’t get a metal collar anymore which would have helped dosing into the portafilter (though you could buy one separately I assume)

      From the seller when I noticed it was missing:

      “… All grinders come with tilting rubber instead of metal collar which kept scratching the cups and causing damage. Hence the metal collar was replaced out as people complain why it was scratching.”

      It’s probably still possibly but tricker.

      Using the cup isn’t too bad (first time a cup personally after upgrading from a Breville SGP which would dose straight into portafilter)

    Did a burr alignment test and they looked pretty good. Took about 3 shots to dial in. I'm retiring a Breville Smart Grinder that I've used daily since July 2014.
