Baratza Forté-BG Coffee Grinder

My experience is with a commercial Bunn , also a sette 270 . This grinder is pretty amazing, simple , quiet and very high quality . No regrets. Clive was also a pleasant experience.

Forte is awesome

I’ve owned several grinders over the years, including Baratza Vario. This Forte is heads and shoulders above the Vario from grind-by-weight capability, to consistency of grind, to its ability to bring coarser for pour-over and drop. This is a high quality machine in a small and elegant package. I highly recommend

Worth it.

After working in specialty coffee for 17 years, I've gotten rather picky with my home setup. I wanted a grinder that could grind and hold up like a commercial/cafe grinder but would sit on my countertop. I needed to look no further. The build is excellent. The grind adjustment notches are metal which makes a huge difference in feel when adjusting the grind. The flat burrs are excellent quality (stainless steel) and produce a highly uniform grind. Additionally, the BG uses a slower motor speed, but has fantastic torque, so it doesn't vary in the speed of grinding. The machine in general is built very well with only the grinds bin and hopper having plastic elements. The machine was packaged extremely well and arrived in perfect shape. If you have the money, and want cafe quality grinding at home, and make filter/immersion brews as your go to--look no further.
