I have a DF64p and bought a regular DF64 to keep with my other machine at my parent’s house. If I buy a 1k+ grinder and I think it makes that much of difference I will 100% buy another one. I’m thinking of upgrading my machine first tho.

I’ve been using [my DF64P](https://www.reddit.com/r/coffeestations/s/KBdnccp3qo) for the past 3 years and it has been great for me. This version has the grind size adjustment in the base so I can take it apart and clean it and it keeps the setting it was at. It is all metal and I’ve never thought of it as being “cheap”.

I have a 64v with dlc I will have to respectfully disagree. You can get some super bright high clarity/ tea like brews on low rpm, and does espresso no problem. It’s been my daily driver for 5 years. Only issue I have with it is switching over to espresso from pour over requires a quick 5 min brushing. But at the end of the day it’s always better to have dedicated grinder for both.

I have a 64v and it will do both quite nicely. Make sure you get the dlc burrs they are a huge step up from the stock italmills. You do need to brush out the grind chamber if you plan to switch from pour over to espresso. It does retain some grinds. I would definitely recommend it for either, but hold onto your encore for espresso.

Below is my view - Find the grinder for your type of beans and taste - Then decide if you want hand grinder or electric I had 4 grinders for espresso. I gave away 2 of them. Today I would consider - X ultra, J ultra - K ultra - DF54 esprews burr - DF64 DLC burr - SSP MP - SSP HU There might be other. Good luck

Hey everyone, I currently have a DF64 setup with the default DLC espresso burrs which I'm enjoying for espresso. However, I have a spare set of 64mm SSP MP burrs sitting in a drawer that I really want to put to use (mostly for pour-over) without swapping. I’m trying to figure out the most cost-effective way to get these running without buying another grinder. My current ideas: Picking up a used Fellow Ode (Gen 1 or 2?) on Marketplace, maybe one with damaged/missing burrs to save cash. Is there such a thing as a generic flat burr hand grinder body/carrier that fits 64mm burrs? Has anyone else done this? Open to any "hacky" or budget-friendly suggestions to build a secondary brew grinder. Thanks!

I can attest to the DF64 with the new updates, plasma generator, new lid and the DLC burrs and its great.

DF64 all day long! I’ve got one of the interactions of the first interactions of the first version. Perhaps the 3rd enhancement. I upgraded the burrs because it only cost $350 about 4-years ago plus burrs taking it up to $499. IT WORKS GREAT!!!! From my experience I would buy one again if I were to buy a new one. I works great so I’m not motivated to change.

Dude this is a pretty high startup cost for something you may not even enjoy the process of. Grab a Breville dual boiler and a Baratza Encore, DF64, or Lagom Casa. Upgrade your machine once you feel you've fully committed and know what you're looking for.
