Df64v

Think I found the thread.

Certainly one or two not enchanted with DFs generally. Not unusual.

My experience of the DF64s is probably different due to having upgraded the portafilter forks, fitting an anit-popcorn bean feeder and Gorilla Gear burrs. Apart from all that I left it completely untouched 😃😄😁

Jake if you can find the avatar of the posters with blown engines I would be grateful. Or date/time of posting. I’ve had a look but TBH Discord gives me a headache. Old brain doesn’t work with a hipster app maybe?

Reading it again (or trying to), it sounds more like electronics issues rather than blown motors.

Either way, interested.

Cuprajake thanks Jake, appreciate the effort.

Think it’s the V.

Wonder if it’s only happening in 110v land.

Or of the “v” stands for “very smoky”?

Cuprajake Not loads but it does seem to be a theme of this type of grinder where they hit the wild, then revise then revise, I know Dave said there were motor issues with that grinder he tested for bb @DavecUK

That was for the little conical and it’s wasn’t motor issues, but gearbox issues with a gear being too thin and jumping off another geat. The motor itself is fine. I have a failed one and when I inspect it will take some photos.

The DF64V I have yet to use because I have other time commitments which take priority. We need to be careful not to confuse the two.

I currently have the Niche Zero and wanting a flat burr grinder as an alternative .

I mainly do espresso medium to darker roasts with chocolatey flavours.

DF64v (latest version) with the stock DLC burrs or pay the extra for the SSP HU?
