The SSP 64 mm Red Speed Burrs are precision-engineered flat burrs designed to bring your home grinder closer to professional-level performance. 

Available in two geometries—Espresso (High Uniformity) and Multipurpose—they deliver exceptional grind consistency, clarity, and flavour definition whether you're pulling shots or brewing filter coffee. (Browse compatible upgrades in our 64mm collection.)

  • Espresso geometry is optimised for rich, balanced espresso with medium to dark roasts.

  • Multipurpose geometry is designed for versatility across espresso and filter brewing, especially with lighter roasts.

Why SSP Red Speed Burrs?

Manufactured in South Korea by SSP Grinding Solutions, Red Speed burrs are precision-cut from hardened tool steel and finished with a titanium-aluminium-carbon nitride (TiAlCN) coating designed to extend burr life compared to standard steel burrs—often lasting several hundred kilograms of coffee in home use when properly maintained, providing many years of daily brewing before replacement is required. You can explore more in our SSP burrs collection.

This high-performance coating helps maintain consistent grind quality over the burr’s lifespan. The result: clearer flavour separation, improved sweetness, and better extraction consistency compared to standard steel burrs.

Choose Your Geometry

Espresso (High Uniformity / HU)

  • Designed specifically for traditional espresso ratios (1:2–1:2.5), this geometry produces a tighter particle distribution that delivers:
    • Rich, full body and smooth mouthfeel
    • Dense crema and balanced extractions
    • Forgiving dial-in and shot-to-shot consistency
    • Ideal performance with medium to dark roasts
    • Best for: Espresso-focused brewing, classic espresso profiles, ease of use

Multipurpose (MP)

  • A versatile geometry engineered to perform across both espresso and filter methods, offering a slightly wider particle distribution that improves clarity and flavour separation:
    • Enhanced clarity and brightness
    • Pronounced sweetness in lighter roasts
    • Clean, separated flavour notes
    • Strong filter performance while maintaining body for espresso
    • Best for: Home baristas who brew both espresso and pour-over, light roast enthusiasts

Note: For dedicated light-roast filter brewing, many enthusiasts prefer SSP Lab Sweet burrs, which aim for a balanced cup with strong clarity and sweetness across pour-over and immersion methods.

Compatibility

SSP 64 mm Red Speed burrs fit most grinders designed for 64 mm flat burrs, including:

  • DF64 Gen 2 and DF64V
  • Other DF64 variants
  • Lagom P64
  • Mazzer Super Jolly (requires compatible burr carrier)

Important: Always verify your grinder's burr size and mounting style before purchasing. Some models may require spacers or alignment adjustment during installation. If you’re unsure, contact us and we’ll help confirm compatibility.

Installation & Break-In

To get the best performance from your SSP Red Speed burrs:

  1. Re-zero your grinder — Adjust the zero point after installation, as SSP burrs may differ in thickness from stock burrs

  2. Season the burrs — Grind 1–2 kg of coffee (any beans will do) to break in the cutting edges

  3. Check alignment — Basic burr alignment helps ensure optimal grind quality and is recommended during installation. 

Most users notice improved clarity and consistency after the initial break-in period.

FAQs

What's the difference between SSP 64 mm HU and MP burrs?
  • HU (High Uniformity) burrs are optimised for espresso, prioritising tight particle distribution and consistency. They deliver balanced shots with good body and are more forgiving with grind adjustments.
  • MP (Multipurpose) burrs use a more unimodal geometry that produces higher clarity and flavour separation. They excel in filter brewing but can also pull excellent espresso with lighter roasts—though they demand more precise puck prep.
Should I choose HU or MP burrs?

The right choice depends on whether you prioritise espresso consistency and body (HU) or clarity and versatility across brew methods (MP):

Choose HU if:

  • Espresso is your primary brewing method
  • You value consistency and ease of dialing in
  • You prefer balanced, full-bodied shots

Choose MP if:

  • You brew both espresso and filter regularly
  • You prioritise clarity and brightness
  • You're comfortable with more precise workflow requirements
  • You mainly work with light to medium roasts
Can MP burrs handle darker roasts?

Yes, but MP burrs tend to emphasise acidity and clarity, which can make darker roasts taste thinner or sharper than intended. If you regularly brew dark roasts for espresso and prefer heavier body and chocolate-forward flavours, HU burrs are often preferred.

Will these burrs fit my coffee grinder?

SSP 64 mm HU and MP burrs are compatible with many grinders that use 64 mm flat burrs, including:

  • DF64 / DF64 Gen 2
  • DF64V / DF64 Pro
  • Other DF64 variants
  • Lagom P64
  • Other 64 mm flat-burr grinders

Note: Always verify your grinder's burr size and mounting type before purchasing. Some grinders may require spacers or alignment adjustments.

Do these burrs burrs need seasoning?

While you don't need to season your new burrs, the standard recommendation is to grind grinding approximately 1–2 kg of coffee to season.

This can help improve grinding speed and flavour clarity.

How do SSP burrs compare to stock burrs?

SSP burrs typically offer:

  • Tighter particle distribution and less fines
  • Clearer flavour separation
  • Better performance with light roasts
  • Longer lifespan (hardened tool steel construction)

The difference is most pronounced with high-quality, lighter-roasted coffees where clarity and sweetness matter most.

How long do SSP burrs last?

With proper care, SSP burrs typically last 500–800 kg of coffee (often more) before requiring replacement. Actual lifespan depends on roast level, grind settings, and grinder usage patterns.

Are these genuine SSP products?

Yes. All SSP burrs we sell are manufactured by SSP Grinding Solutions in South Korea and precision-machined from hardened tool steel. We source exclusively through authorised distributors.
