Mahlkonig E80T Grind-by-Sync Espresso Grinder

Mahlkonig E80T Grind-by-Sync Espresso Grinder Mahlkonig's E80T GbS is a high volume commercial coffee grinder that focuses on performance and consistency with its 80mm flat steel burrs and self-adjusting Sync System. When connected with a compatible La Marzocco or Sanremo machine, burr position adjusts automatically to correct for changes in extraction that occur during the day. With high speeds of up to 8g/sec, this grinder can handle commercial environments of any size or volume. Features and Benefits The Grind-by-Sync functionality of the E80T GbS allows the grinder to be connected to a compatible espresso machine from La Marzocco or Sanremo. Grind-by-Sync works by connecting the grinder to the espresso machine via Wifi or a wired cable and programming your desired recipe. Recipes in the E80T GbS contain your grinding time, your desired burr position, and your extraction time. Shot time is communicated to the grinder from the machine and burr position is adjusted automatically as needed if the reported shot time is too fast or too slow. The grinder will course correct throughout the day, leaving baristas free to focus on other tasks while espresso remains consistent. The following machines are compatible with Grind-by-Sync: La Marzocco Strada S, KB90, Linea PB, Linea PB X, Linea Classic S, GB5 S, or GB5 X in AV or ABR configurations Sanremo Café Racer, F18 Multiboiler, F18 SB, D8 PRO, or D8 standard Mahlkonig's Disc Distance Detection or DDD system is an automated burr positioning system that digitally tracks burr position and makes adjustments via a sensor controlled motor. Grind adjustment is accurate within 0.001mm and is tracked onscreen as μm. When utilizing Grind-by-Sync, the burrs will adjust themselves automatically based on extraction data received from the machine. Even without the Sync System, DDD is incredibly useful for calibrating multiple grinders for the same coffee and simple zero-point calibration with a dedicated menu option to zero burrs as needed, such as when installing new burrs or after a deep clean of the grinder. Weight based grinding allows you to program multiple doses by weight within 1/10th of a gram with dispensing accurate within 1/10th of a gram. Unique to Mahlkonig is their portafilter detection feature which, when selected, will automatically select and grind a dose based on the portafilter inserted. In cases where multiple portafilters are used by baristas, this eliminates the need to select a specific dose when changing portafilters based on different drink recipes as necessitated by a workflow. As a traditional time-based grinder, coffee dosing is programmed by time within 1/10th of a second increments. Coffee is ground by a set of 80mm flat steel burrs and a massive 850 W motor with an idle rpm of 1,700. The E80T GbS is able to achieve incredible speeds of up to 7-8g/sec at 250μm. Programming and menu navigation are made simple by the vivid touchscreen display, buttons and rotary encoder knob.

Its powerful motor, large burrs, and self-correcting Grind-by-Sync technology deliver consistent coffee at high speeds. Dosing precision will require occasional attention from baristas when compared to the weight-based E80W GbS, but the savings in cost can be reinvested into other equipment with confidence that will always perform.
