The rare grinder that handles espresso AND filter coffee brilliantly at $200. Micro-adjustable burrs dial in shots with precision, and Baratza's legendary repairability means it'll last a decade.
It's hard to fathom how good this Baratza Encore ESP coffee grinder is for the money, and how many types of coffee drinkers it can serve.
These weren't precise shots for espresso perfectionists, but they were great for people like me who want to make espresso at home along with a variety of other coffee styles. I quickly realized that I could potentially be happy with the ESP for mixed use, for years, if not forever.
270 grind settings with macro and micro adjustments make this the go-to for espresso obsessives who want shot-to-shot precision. Serious Eats named it their top espresso grinder pick after testing 10 models.
Bridges the gap between the entry-level Encore ESP and the Sette 270 with single-dose mode, ion static reduction, and a sleek minimalist design. At $300, it's the sweet spot for serious home baristas who want more without going full enthusiast.
Commercial café precision in a home-sized package, the Philos delivers near-zero retention, 145 micro-adjustment steps, and espresso so syrupy and sweet it'll make you question every shot you've pulled before. For serious espresso lovers only.
60 grind settings and stainless steel conical burrs give you serious adjustability at a mid-range price. Serious Eats consistently recommends it as a top-tier all-rounder that produces so few fines their scale couldn't register them.
