An In-depth Overview: 

The DF64 Gen 2 is a single-dose coffee grinder built on a proven 64mm flat-burr platform, designed for home baristas who want precision, consistency and a clean, repeatable workflow.

With stepless adjustment, very low retention, and strong grind uniformity, it’s a versatile choice for espresso through to filter and immersion brewing.

The Gen 2 isn’t just a minor update—it refines the DF64 workflow with smoother operation, cleaner dosing, and a more polished overall experience, without stepping into the price bracket (or bench-space footprint) of larger commercial-style grinders.

Features

• Wide grind range for espresso to filter: The DF64 Gen 2 offers a broad grind range (approximately 180–1050 µm as a rough guide), with changes made via a stepless micrometric adjustment ring. Results vary by burr set, calibration, beans and seasoning.
  
  
• Low retention, true single-dosing: Designed to keep retention extremely low (often <0.3g in typical use), with an anti-popcorning disc and an improved bellows system to help purge remaining grounds.
  
  
• Highly customisable 64mm platform: Compatible with a wide range of aftermarket 64mm burr upgrades from brands like SSP, Italmill and others, so you can tune the grinder toward your preferred flavour style and brew methods. (See our Red Titanium Burrs guide if you’re comparing burr options.)
  
  
• Built to last: A sturdy, heavy-duty aluminium body with replaceable parts and a simple, serviceable design—made for long-term reliability and consistent performance over time.
