After adding one shim, the Sette functioned great as an espresso grinder and could still make a good V60.

The cornerstone of the Baratza Sette 270Wi can be found in its Acaia weight-based dosing technology. The Baratza Forte AP and it’s consumer grade Vario brother have been subjected to a huge number of blind taste testings over the years, which puts their cup quality on par with the established range of 64mm flat burr grinders. The range is extensive to pick from grinders for the perfect espresso, drip, and even Turkish coffee.Baratza has always been one of the big pioneers in espresso grinders, throwing out innovation after innovation and making our coffee a little bit better every time. The Sette's long lasting conical burrs produce less heat and helps preserve the coffee's aroma and flavours.

All you need to tinker with after that is grind time, and the Baratza Sette 270 can save up to three different grind times you can freely switch between using dedicated buttons on the grinder's face. The dead space, which otherwise makes perfect dosing (and cleaning) difficult, is then reduced here. On its own, a 40-millimeter conical burr grinder made of hardened stainless steel would probably get friendly shrugs from many reviewers. This unique grinder design responds to the Specialty Coffee user trend of using specific weight based recipes for coffee preparation.

By rotating the hooks, you'll have room to place the included ground coffee bin, as well as Pour Over brewers like the Hario V60.

With stepped macro and non-stepped micro-adjustments, you can get really specific dialing in your perfect grind. Using a combination planetary gear box and a patented crown gear drive system, we achieve a 19:1 speed reduction. The arms can accommodate portafilters from sizes 49mm to 58mm and the holder includes an integrated hook for stability.The grounds bin, hopper, and hopper lid are not dishwasher safe; however, these components are easy to wash with warm soapy water.

Where the previous models would measure a dose with grind time in seconds, the Baratza Sette 270Wi actively weighs your dose while grinding. This machine learning is especially interesting when you take into account the three programmable settings you can save.

You have a fine control of how your ground coffee is gonna come out like and it doesn't make as much of a mess as the other grinders I've used in the past. Note that none of the removable parts, including the bean hopper, hopper lid, or grounds bin, are dishwasher safe, and these will need to be hand-washed using warm soapy water and allowed to dry completely before reassembling. Loud: Be prepared to wake up the whole house, the Sette is one of the louder home grinders we've tested. A very important point, is that this very product is of the latest produced (serial starting with 220, meaning it was manufactured in 2020) and most of the issues had been accounted.
