~£400 Burr Swapper

The DF64 Gen 2 is the grinder for people who read coffee forums. Its defining feature is the standard 64mm flat burr mount, which means you can swap in aftermarket burrs from SSP, Italmill, or others to completely change the flavour profile. Stock burrs are perfectly good — clean, balanced shots — but the ability to upgrade to SSP Multipurpose or High Uniformity burrs transforms this into a genuinely high-end grinder at a fraction of the price. Single-dose design with bellows, near-zero retention, and a stepless adjustment that's precise enough for espresso.
