FAQ
What is stepless grind adjustment and how does it work in the EK43S?
The Mahlkonig EK43S offers an intuitive interface to quickly find precise grind settings. As a stepless grinder, it lets you adjust the dial in any increment you prefer.
To highlight the difference, a stepped grinder has fixed notches that the dial clicks into, making it easy to switch between preset settings. However, it lacks the flexibility to adjust between those notches, which could result in an imprecise grind if your ideal setting falls in between.
The EK43S eliminates these notches, allowing you to fine-tune the grind for each coffee type. Its numbered dial makes it simple to remember settings when switching between them, enhancing ease of use.
What is the difference between the flat burrs in the EK43S and conical burrs in other grinders?
Flat and conical burr grinders are the two main choices in high-end coffee making, each with distinct qualities.
The key difference lies in the particle size they produce. Flat burrs create a uniform particle size, which leads to a balanced brew, often resulting in smoothness and enhanced deeper notes. Conical burrs, however, generate bimodal particles (two different sizes), which bring out brightness, making them ideal for light roasts with juicy, vibrant flavors.
However, conical burrs can cause smaller particles to over-extract, leading to bitterness. Flat burr grinders are favored for their consistency and ease of use, especially in professional settings, ensuring great flavor.
How does burr size affect the coffee?
Many top coffee shops use large burr grinders not only for their speed but also for their ability to keep the grind cool, which helps preserve the coffee’s flavor.
Large burrs have a greater cutting area, so they require fewer rotations to grind the coffee. This reduces motor run time and minimizes heat buildup caused by friction between the burrs.
Excessive heat can harm the coffee, leading to bitter, over-roasted flavors and ruining the product before brewing.
The EK43S’s oversized burrs are key to its exceptional temperature control. It can grind multiple batches without overheating, making it a favorite in high-volume shops.
