Baratza Sette 270 Home Filter and Espresso Coffee Grinder

Baratza Sette 270 Coffee Grinder

The Baratza Sette 270w coffee grinder is a new conical burr series that debuts a revolutionary new grinding technology. Designed and perfected in Liechtenstein over a period of 8 years, this technology sets a new standard in simplicity, efficiency, and durability. This new mechanism has the outer burr rotate and the inner burr is fixed, a truly revolutionary design.

The design of this mechanism doubles the efficiency of similarly sized grinders. Coffee passes straight thru the grinder, vertically, and drops directly into the grounds bin or your portafilter. The Baratza Sette 270 coffee grinder is one for filter coffee and espresso enthusiasts alike. Breaking away from the former standard, this grinder has a fixed inner burr and a rotating outer burr.

Unlike every grinder of its size, the Sette’s revolutionary 40mm steel conical burrs cut grinding time in half, producing 3.5g to 5.5g per second.

Burrs will remain sharp and aligned for many years, as well as retain less ground coffee than competing grinders. For the first time, Baratza has released a gear speed reduction of 19:1 with the grinders new efficient gear drive system.

The Sette has a macro/micro adjust for grind size, as well as 3 programmable settings for dosing down to a tenth of a second. These combined features offers the user incredible repeatability. A built-in convertible holder allows you to grind directly into your portafilter, the supplied grounds bin, or most of the popular brewing devices (Hario, Clever, Able Kone, Aeropress) – a standout feature amongst all other home grinders.

The Sette 270’s 30 grind settings can produce coffee grounds for espresso, as well as Chemex. If you’re brewing espresso and want to get it just right, the grinder provides 9 micro-adjustment settings to help you achieve that perfect grind size.
