Overview
Meet the tinkerer's favourite. The DF64 Gen 2 (G-Iota) is a single-dose grinder with 64 mm stainless steel flat burrs, stepless micrometric adjustment and a 50 g bellows hopper, in a black metal body with a wooden lid. A built-in plasma generator tackles static, and when you're ready to play, it takes popular SSP, Mazzer and DLC burr upgrades.
Our take: who the DF64 Gen 2 is for
If you love tweaking – new burrs, a dial indicator, a tilted cup holder – the DF64 Gen 2 is a brilliant base to build on. Out of the box, the 64 mm flat burrs and plasma generator already make it a capable single-dose grinder for espresso and filter.
If you'd rather have a compact, plug-and-play conical grinder, look at the Varia VS3 Gen 2 or VS4 instead.
