Exploring the World of Mahlkönig Grinders: Quality and Innovation
Most famous among mahlkonig grinders is the EK43, nicknamed the “Queen of Grinders.” It has huge 98 mm flat burrs that grind coffee to a very consistent size in record time (over three pounds per minute on an average setting). It also keeps grinding cool enough to grind continuously, making it ideal for high-volume coffee shops and espresso bars.
Other popular mahlkonig models include the E80 Supreme, an update to the storied Peak model that combines record speed with real-time Grind-by-Weight technology for espresso-perfect grind consistency and reproduction. The new X54 maintains the classic mahlkonig aesthetic with a cylindrical body and towering height. It is also capable of grinding for a wide variety of brew methods and has two buttons for programmable timed grinding, so it can be used in a range of coffee service situations.
The HK33 is a smaller version of the EK43 that’s great for small or midsize shops. It can also be used to grind spices, grains, seeds and other foods with its special burrs. It also has a lock mechanism that makes it easy to switch out hoppers for different kinds of food, which helps you save on costly waste and expand your menu options.
