Barista Tech has introduced what it says is the market’s first grind-by-weight (GbW) espresso grinder, the Mahlkönig E65S GbW, manufactured by German grinder specialist Mahlkönig.


Unlike traditional grinders that dose by time or volume, the GbW system measures coffee in real time by weight, aiming to deliver consistent dosing regardless of bean condition or grind size.


The E65S GbW includes a 1,200g hopper, outputs up to 5g per second and uses an internal scale to monitor dose throughout grinding.


Additional features include Disc Distance Detection for precise grind adjustments, an active cooling system to control temperature, an illuminated adjustable spout and automatic portafilter detection that selects presets and starts grinding.


“Getting the perfect grind has never been so easy,” said David Rees, marketing manager at Barista Tech. “Serving a great cup, every single time, is what has driven the explosion in coffee consumption. GbW takes coffee quality to the next level.” 


The grinder lists at £2,159 plus VAT.
