- In this video, we take a closer look at the Coffee Tech DF83 v2 coffee grinder and put it to the test to see if it has a grind retention problem. Grind retention can impact the flavor and consistency of your coffee, so it's important to understand how much the grinder retains between shots. We'll show you our testing process and share our results, including how much coffee the grinder retains. If you're considering the Coffee Tech DF83 v2 grinder, this video will help you make an informed decision about its performance and whether it's the right choice for you. Join us as we uncover the truth about this popular coffee grinder.
I find with a lot of grinders you get more consistent input/output without using the bellows. I opened up the declumper on the original df83 a bit more and found retention had improved as a result and I often don't use the bellows. If you hit the bellows at the end youd probably get a little coffee out I'd think? There's likely some retention still being exchanged but likely a tiny negligible amount. On mine if I hit the bellows I'll get another 0.3g out usually. Amount being exchanged between the doses might be even less than that so negligible.
Thanks for sharing your experience. It's interesting to hear that you've found more consistent input/output without using the bellows and that you were able to improve retention by opening up the declumper on the original df83. The majority of grinders (if not all) have a degree of exchange, the question then becomes how much. We are not finding exchange to be a huge issue or even something of any concern on the DF83.
This is great to hear. I will hopefully be receiving my DF83v2 this week and I'm so excited.

hey! How do you like the v2? Would you recommend it? I want to make espresso and café creme with it. Would you recommend it for me, when I have to change grind size daily between café creme and espresso? :) Thx!!
Just got my df83v2 still figuring out how to get as consistent batches as yours. Basically playing with rdt, bellows, and hot start but can't seem to nail it. Surprising how consistent you got it with just a hot start. Also would it be amazing if you could do a vid about alignment
There are a lot of variables for consistency. You will find as you run more coffee through the grinder and the burrs get bedded in that your consistency will improve. Also your atmospheric conditions such as humidity play a role so you may not get the same results as myself. Either way I hope you are enjoying the DF83 and just be patient and give it some time for it to settle down. Thanks for the burr alignment suggestion. Will look to put a video together.
Glad to have found your channel and subscribed. Sure hope that you drank all of that coffee..😂 👍
Worthwhile video thanks.
Thanks Tom.
Thanks for posting this.
I was wondering if the grinder was perfectly cleaned/empty before the first grinding. I feel that some of the grinders still retain some residual grind. This then gets mixed in with the nexts runs, while leaving some grind in the machine for future runs. So while all in all it appears to be zero retention, the output contains old grinds to some extent.
Grinder was not perfectly cleaned before the first grind however you raise a good point and I have opened the grinder to see how much coffee remains in the chamber and it is actually minimal. I've take a picture of it however I can't seem to be able to add it to my reply here. I would also say that the majority of grinders (if not all) have a degree of exchange, the question then becomes how much. We are not finding exchange to be a huge issue or even something of any concern on the DF83.
Is that Dosing Cup Adapter available in USA? Great Video - thanks
Only on the Australian/NZ version unfortunately. Can ship to US however.
very cool video abt Df83 v2 retention test ... but Df 83 v2 not yet available on the original df website ...!?
do u have Idea where It s avsilable ..plse
Where are you based?
If you can try dark roast, it stick far more than medium. Mine V1 stick 2 g in chute. Need to know if I should upgrade.
Will give it a try however I suspect v2 with the antistatic will make a significant improvement compared to what you are experiencing.
Is it worthwhile removing the declumper on the V2? Everything I saw about the V1 said it was pretty much mandatory
Testing it at the moment. Initial findings are for filter removing the declumper almost completely removes the need to bellow.
Impressive!
Can I ask what scale you are using
Coffee Tech scales. Watch this space :)
The only thing is you should have measured the cup before each dose for what's left in the dosing cup. Probably not much. Thanks
all the paper cups are the same and in all honesty the little ground coffee that may be found stuck to the side walls does not even register on the scales as it is so negligible.
@@FrankiesBeansMachines makes sense thanks
What scale is that?
Coffee Tech scale. Watch this space. Be sure to subscribe so you know when we finally post a review of it.
I see coffee tech is the counterpart of Turin USA. But i dont see that scale being sold here.
@@chookchack scale is not for sale yet but coming soon. When you say "here" where is that US or Australia?
@@FrankiesBeansMachines yup USA. Df64 and df83 are branded turin here.
