Inside the aluminum body of the machine is a newly developed set of flat, 54-millimeter steel burrs spun at 1,050 RPM by a motor with an expected lifetime of 25,000 shots, according to Mahlkönig.
Mahlkönig said the machine is also constructed to run as quietly as possible, with an active grinding noise level of less than 70 decibels, while the hopper can hold approximately 500 grams of roasted coffee.
Sales of the Mahlkönig X54 Allround grinder will launch in the United States next month with a list price of USD $849 including VAT.
