DF54 grinds with excellent precision and consistency and the result is the amazing coffee like never before. We love it. Thank you very much!
I received the unit aand the box had a big dent in it, however, thanks to the extra padding. The grinder remained untouched. Thanks to the upgraded titanium burrs the first grind to my latest grind has been perfect! As a beginner barista I feel like I’ve jumped to the front of the line with this grinder. Highly recommend- five stars.
After installing it, I noticed it rubs a bit against the number display plate.
I shimmed it up about 1-2mm, & tighten the set-screw. It has worked flawlessly since.

I've been hand grinding for several years, I just replaced both my espresso, & filter grinders a few months ago.
But espressos are getting so tedious!
I decided to finally buy an electric grinder.
I pretty much knew what I wanted, DF64, or DF83.
I decided on the DF64 due to lack of counter space. But really would've rather had the DF83.
The grinder has been so nice! Just a few seconds for an espresso!
Thank you very much, I am really glad I finally decided on a DF grinder!

Nice grinder, I’m liking the single dose grinder. It’s very clean, no grounds all over my counter. So far no retention. Seems to work well with medium roast espresso beans.
First time I tried to use it, it clogged and only about 1/4 of the beans came through. I have it in pieces now trying to clean it to see if that works.
Nice little addition, we use the plastic cup that came with it for measuring the beans and the metal cup for the grinded beans, nice machined lid fits perfect
So quiet that my wife didn’t know she had to turn it off and ran it for 4hrs straight. It got a little warm but still working great
I get perfect grinds every time. Two issues that kept me from giving 5 stars: 1) The grind-size wheel is very difficult to turn; and 2) the actual grinding process is fairly slow compared to other grinders. But, all in all, I’m extremely happy with the product.
Honestly a nice piece of equipment. It's quiet, well built, robust and stylish. This is definitely a step up from a Breville Smart Grinder.
My only complain is removing the wooden lid removes the bellows. They need to revise the design where the rubber bellows secures tightly to the housing so when you remove the wooden lid, the bellows doesn't come off.
No issues with retention yet. Metal cup is real nice, love the angle of the cup to prevent any particles from falling out.
This grinder works amazingly well! First burr grinder and the improvement in the quality of the coffee is shocking. The bellows is fun and useful.
