    The sette is best in the business. It’s loud because it’s a drop throw true zero retention grind. The best fluff no clump and easy to work on. Baratza has the best customer service in the. Business. They would service your Baratza even if your grinder is out of warranty. Cant beat this. The newer ones are less noisey. I have the 270 will measures it out already built in scale by açaí. This grinder can go to any bean any grind. The only thing when you dial to a finer setting do it while grinder is running not when it’s not.

      Upon receipt (new coffee grinder), I immediately installed one gasket (shim) under the central bur. Now the grind size is 12 for Espresso. I wanted to check with users or Tecnikian specialists. This will not affect the operation of the coffee grinder in any way: is it that you haven’t ground it a little, should you grind at least 1 kg of coffee? Will this somehow affect the durability of a pair of bur wheels? Another question is whether changing the grind size with the engine off makes a difference; While I'm doing this, they say it's better when it works. I am tormented by vague doubts!

      Depends on how you're using it. If you're the type of person that single doses and switches between different coffees often, then you're better off with the 270. If you just buy a kilo of beans and fill up the hopper, then I'd go for the Fiorenzato :)

      Be warned though, you will have to tinker around with it more than other grinders. I’ve seen a lot of people reporting breakage at 6 months and 2 years.
      I did buy it too, since it is currently available at Baratza’s site, refurbished, for $299, and I am also okay with tinkering with it, since I am only looking for a new grinder due to breaking my old one by playing around with it too much.

    Hello there! I just wanted to say thank you for the fun and informative videos. It's nice to see how your production style has also gotten better with time. Quick question: are you still using the method where you switch on the boiler for 20 seconds before brewing espresso in order to make for a more even extraction temperature? I started doing so after seeing your tip, and was wondering if you continue to do so yourself. Keep up the great work!

    Hey, newbie here with sette 270 & classic pro on its way from Whole Latte Love. Have no idea what shims are and don't plan to get them, so was wondering if you'd still use the same grinder settings (7A)? Also, noticed you pushed the 3rd button with a pre-set of 20 seconds, but thought you used #2 for 11 seconds (isn't 20 seconds too long for 19g)? I'd like to have some kind of baseline so I'm not wasting tons of beans on experimentation, especially since I'm just now entering this brave new world for the first time. Thx!

      @@DBDiez the reason the Sette produces fines is because people want it to grind fine enough for espresso and coarse enough for cold brew. It's almost impossible to have that type of range in a home grinder. It's just a compromise you'll have to make, where you're getting good enough coffee both as espresso and filter 😁 For example, when I'm making a V60 with a 30g dose I grind on 29E, which is almost the coarsest setting. If I wanted to make an even bigger batch of V60, it would be impossible, because I can't grind coarser. The only way to do it is to take the shim out, but then I'd lose the ability to grind fine enough for espresso 😂

      For espresso if budget allows I would recommend 270. I often find that adjustment on the small ring makes it easy to get the flow where I want it to be. With Sette 30 I would be worried of a too big jumps in flow.

    • @chumakov
      @chumakov 3 роки тому +1

      I do have a Baratza Sette 30, the most important difference is that the 270 has a stepless adjustment assembly which allows you to make very tiny adjustments to the grind size so you can dial better. The good thing is you can get this assembly from Baratza's website for $90 USD and upgrade your Sette 30. With the stock Sette 30 ring you may find that the grind size present is too coarse or too fine and maybe you'd prefer something in between, but in the meantime it should be enough and you can always upgrade at a later date. The other two differences are that the 270 has the time presets and the more fancy support arms.

    I like the random swearing hahaha. Your only gripe was that it was too loud omg yes. "but who gives a fuck" hahahaha. this is about to be my current setup, i purchased the grinder for myself and im so excited to use it when it comes in.

      @@tmb-themajesticbeanchannel1746 the classic pro, exactly like u have. The encore didn't work for me as a grinder even after I calibrated to go finer. So I had to go all out and get the sette 270 😭. I really don't wana manual grind anymore. Thanks for all ur tips. For steaming on the pro, I don't wait for the light either, I flip the switch. . Wait, turn the knob and wait til I see some steam then I steam my milk, all before I see any light click on.
