Description
The Etzinger coffee grinder built for zero-waste dosing
Retention ruins consistency — beans left behind in a grinder mean every shot after the first is a compromise. The Etzinger coffee grinder solves this with sub-gram retention and a modular design that adapts to espresso, filter, or single dosing without a single tool.

A grinder that works the way you do
Adjustment and cleaning happen without tools — loosen, shift, lock. The Etzinger coffee grinder is a modular platform: parts are user-replaceable, so a worn burr or hopper doesn’t mean a service call. It’s engineered for cafés that can’t afford downtime and home bars that want café-grade control.

Engineering behind the Etzinger coffee grinder
Minimum Retention
Just 0.8g of ground coffee remains in the chamber after each dose — critical for single dosing accuracy and flavour consistency between cups.
Modular System
Every wear part — burrs, chute, hopper — is user-replaceable. No specialist tools, no downtime waiting on a technician.
Weighing System
Built-in intuitive weighing tares in under 2 seconds, letting you dial dose-by-weight or dose-by-time depending on your workflow.
Finish Options
Available in Silver (smooth aluminium), Black, White, or Industrial (raw finish) — built to match a home counter or a café bar.
Single Dosing Ready
Pairs with the Single Dosing Device; Etzinger recommends the LIGHT-cone burr for this workflow.
