Product Description
The Mazzer Mini Flat Burr Espresso Grinder is widely appreciated as a commercial-grade, high quality grinder suited for small cafes, restaurants and home users who want a professional edge. Mazzer's latest version of the Mini Flat Burr Grinder comes with a stainless-steel grind tray and a power cord that comes out of the bottom rather than the side.
Features & Functionality of the Mazzer Mini Flat Burr Grinder
- Large Capacity: The sturdy clear plastic bean hopper with finger guard holds a whopping 1.3 pounds of beans and features an integrated trap door that allows for easy changing of beans without emptying.
- Consistent Grind: The stable stainless steel 58mm burr grinders are flat (rather than conical) and remove for easy cleaning. Designed to operate at a low RPM (rotations per minute) so that minimal heat builds up and is transfered to your beans.
- Stepless Adjustment: Twist and pull the adjustment pin to advance the beans from the hopper into the grinder. You can adjust as the grinder is working.
- Doser: The adjustable doser gives you control of measuring out between 5 and 8 grams per pull

Would this work well if I am only grinding enough coffee to make one shot of espresso every day? If not, what would you suggest that is still a very high quality machine? Thank you
Best Answer: You can certainly use this Mazzer Flat Burr Espresso Grinder for one shot a day, however a doser model machine is generally better for multiple drinks all in a row, as that doser will hold a variety of grounds that you will find are stale by the next day. You can add to the hopper only the beans that you will need for your one shot or you could look to a doserless model like the Rancillio Rocky, or the Baratza Vario grinders. Hope this helps!
Mazzer Mini doser is supposed to be adjustable but I can't figure out how. I inevitably spill the ground espresso over the sides of the portafilter because two pushes on the doser isn't enough for a double and three pushes sends the ground espresso over the top and sides of the portafilter. What is the proper method for adjusting the doser?
Also, the hopper has a black plastic pull to send beans to the grinder. Is there any way to control how many beans are sent?
Thanks a lot

Best Answer: Hey Madeline G.
Hope this helps.
i have the same problem, so don't feel bad.
2 things:
first, i try and pull a half dose on the third pull in order to fill the portafilter.
(i have not tried to "adjust the dose." i do not know how to do that.)
second, i flatten the coffee in the portafilter with my finger over the dose container (i remove the black top lid) and therefore the excess grinds fall back into the doser.
(this is before i tamp the coffee.)
make sense?
my question for you is, which i constantly get confused about--which way do you turn the grind setting to make the grind courser or finer?
the label with the arrow confuses me overtime i try and make an adjustment.
do you turn the ring clockwise to make it courser or finer?
thanks for your input and good luck!
happy to chat anytime.
I love the mazzer mini and use it every morning.
but i need some feedback from others to get better at it!
cheers~

Will this grinder be equally good for espresso to french press coffee?
Best Answer: This Mazzer Mini is really designed for espresso only, and so I would not recommend it for French Press coffee as you don't need a unit calibrated for fine espresso grinding like this Mazzer. If you're looking for a grinder for French Press, I would suggest a lower priced option like the Baratza Encore.

Will this grinder work well for french press and cold brew coffee? I am looking for a grinder that will work for all grind types well.
Thanks
Thanks
Best Answer: This Mazzer Mini is designed for espresso only and is step less, which means that moving back and forth to different grind settings is tricky because notations on the grinder aren't super clear. I would not recommend it for French Press and cold brew coffee as you don't need a unit calibrated for fine espresso grinding like this Mazzer. If you're looking for a grinder for multiple applications, I would suggest a lower priced option like the Baratza Encore.

Reviews
- A costly but high-quality dedicated espresso grinderReview by Old Ginger
-
Few coffee grinders seem especially designed to produce the fine and uniform granularity needed for espresso. My old Rancilio Rocky did not, and I broke two Baratza Precisos trying to get the calibration right. The Mazzer Mini is Germanic in its engineering, though of course it comes from Italy. I've only had it for 6 weeks or so, but I am very pleased with its solidity and its ease of calibration for grinding beans for espresso. It makes great coffee. Two minor inconveniences might be mentioned: the unit comes with a doser; and it has a timer in lieu of a simple on/off switch. To me these are minor points. (Posted on 5/2/2014)Price Value Quality
