Turin Grinders - DF83

I love my Df83 🤌🤌

I have a DF83 and it works well for both!

Put your money into coffee beans instead… otherwise zp6 (or pietro) or anything that has 83mm ssp lab sweet (ditting) cast burrset (I have mazzer major for the purpose due to small budget but the workflow is a compromise here, DF83 would do the job too) sculptor 078 design looks great, works great but then other issues…

DF83 that probably cost me too much by the time I added SSP burrs 🤣 I chose it because there was a lot of hype around them at the time as a good flat burr grinder for the price. I probably could have gone with 64 and saved some money, in retrospect. I don't know what benefit I'm getting from the larger burrs. And my stock burrs were either defective or just super out of whack and I could never align them. I didn't have that problem once I bought some SSP burrs, but, of course, that was another few hundred dollars. I've also added a Cremaloop slow feeder and that drastically improved consistency. I'm pretty happy with it at this point, but I've spent around $1,100 total and that feels like so much when I could have gotten a Niche zero or something similar that other people recommend for like half the cost.

Opus and DF83 The Opus is okay, but so slow. I got the Df83 cheap and I don't feel feel the need for anything more.

I have a DF83 No one talks about it anymore :(

Yes! I think it’s great

I do too! Seems like we’ve been forgotten

For a single grinder, df83 or time more 078 with multipurpose ssp burr might be the best bet.

Surprised nobody recommends the DF83, it’s been great for me

Ive had maybe 10 filter grinders in the last 5 years. No hand grinders . With about a half dozen sets of SSP burrs. That being said. I want total clarity . Very pronounced fruit tones etc. I still have a 078 and it’s a great grinder. However I have had my best cups from a DF83 with SSP MPV2 silver knight burrs. I’ve had SSP brew burrs, SSP MPV1 red coated, and SSP Lab Sweet burrs in the DF83 for filter. But the DF83 with SSP MPV2. This combination for me is stellar. I prefer it over the 078. Or any of my others. I just seen one for sale on the home-barista.com forum. Might be able to snatch it for a bargain. Throw whatever filter burrs you want in it. Hope this helps.

Just got a df83 second hand for 550.

Got a df83 for 550 on fb :) with neew burs
