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.
DF54 v3 is a solid choice. A little over budget tho. I have the DF64 and it has been a phenomenal decision.
I’m sorry you’re right, I was thinking about the DF64V
I have 4. A C40 and a Zp6 for pour over (one stays at work). And a DF64V and a niche zero for espresso. Got the Df64V to try flat burrs for espresso so might sell the niche but tempted to keep it for dark roasts.
DF64V, looks good, quiet, variable speed, and fantastic price. Replaced a mazzer mini with it and very happy....Was about $500cdn
Single dose grinder is the way to go. DF64 and get some upgraded burrs down the road.
I have a df 64 and although i have upgraded my espresso grinder, i still use the df64 for drip. It’s a very good piece for the money. It works well enough and produces a fairly good consistent grind.
The df 64 will do both, it’s a pain in the ass to switch between grind sizes all the time though. Id honestly get a df64 and a cheaper one for regular drip coffee. I used to have a df64 for espresso and a capresso grinder for drip. It worked well. I now use my df64 for drip and a libra ap for espresso.
This is my exact setup. A ZP6 for pourover and a DF64V with SSP HU burrs. It works well.
I’m not sure about the V60, maybe someone can advise; but the DF64 is a fantastic grinder for any espresso and is built like a tank.
