Overview
Grind consistency is one of the most overlooked variables in the coffee equation. Bring your espresso game up to par with the Nuova Simonelli G60 Grinder. Prosumer destined from the ground up, the G60 sports 60mm flat burrs, timed dosing and a stepless grind adjust for easy grind touch-ups. Even better, the G60's design details are sure to wow home users: tall feet make it easy to sweep under, a short hopper tops out the height at 16 inches so that it can squeeze under cabinets, and an overbuilt portafilter holder features a rubber coating to protect the chrome-plated brass of your portafilter.

Espresso
- Stepless Bottom Burr Adjust: By adjusting the bottom burr instead of the top, you'll be able to disassemble your grinder for cleaning without losing your last grind setting.
- 60mm Flat Burrs: Wide, hardened steel burrs make shot work of grinding for espresso.
- Timed Dosing: 0.1-second adjustable time dosing for single and double shots, or an optional manual mode.
- One-piece Portafilter Holder: The G60's portafilter holder is rock solid and coated to protect the finish of your portafilter.

Pros
- Burr Adjust References: The stepless burr adjustment dial features clear markers and reference points that make small adjustments really easy.
- Tall Stance: Cleaning up loose grounds under a grinder can be an aggravating experience. The 3/4-inch feet add just enough height to brush under your grinder without having to move it.
- Cabinet Friendly: Since you don't have to move the grinder to clean under it and the hopper is short enough to squeeze under a cabinet, this grinder is particularly well-suited for regular kitchens.
-
Cons
- Beak-spout: Like the vestigal remnants of a commercial doser, the large spout is an unnecessary eyesore for a home grinder.
- Power Button: Big, blue and prominently located on the front-side of the machine, we would have preferred a simpler black on/off switch.
