Excellent stuff @Adrianmsmith always good to have someone to compare notes with
Noticed an email from BB with more details on a blog post. Variable rpm quoted at 300-1400 and not 800-2000 as on the model Dave have been testing. Interesting.
- Edited
Got the same email…..
Link to the info….
Worth noting also if you are considering purchase (if you are tight like I am) you can effectively get free shipping if you go on their chat or email and request for an order to be created . there’s a 2% saving if you pay by bank transfer. Quick, easy and cost effective.
Just waiting for the boat to land now😁

simonc Why 800? Because it was the slowest it could do, so you would run at 500 or maybe 300 if possible as now suggested or do you think 800 gives best particle distribution?
I like 800 for 64mm burrs.
DavecUK I like 800 for 64mm burrs.
I know you like 800rpm for 64mm burrs. But why? What’s the rationale behind it?
Surely if it goes to 300rpm that increases the likelihood of stalling quite significantly?
simonc if you have it can you run some lighter beans at espresso settings with the lowest RPM and report back? Thanks
FadedFrontiers I have the KOPI deva not the T64 but also an adjustable RPM 64mm so hence interested.
MediumRoastSteam I know you like 800rpm for 64mm burrs. But why? What’s the rationale behind it?
It’s about burr size and throughput. I’ve explained why quite a few times in other threads, search for “burr packing,”.
From a business perspective it seems BB is not getting the attraction they needed/wanted, which is not too surprising. Sub-500GBP SD grinder market is super competitive atm and most will stick with DF64 gen 2. Hopefully that will not kill off the grinder, hopefully to buy it from a local retailer soon…
What brings you to that conclusion, how many have been sold?….

Adrianmsmith just the impression. No discussion about it outside this forum. Pretty low view count on Dave’s video. For many people it will just be another DF64 “clone”, which is not true but hard to convince otherwise.
Sometimes good produce <> good selling

If the grinder is as good as I have at home and should be a lot better with the improved spec and burrs (I think the speeds they quote must be wrong)…then a lot of people are going to miss out on something excellent. I know the influencers have high view counts and sometimes the paid shills just make me want to walk away from it all. The reason being “why bother”.
They truly don’t give a crap about the people who watch their channels and buy the product they push. They are too busy making the next money making video, endorsement or whatever else they do..
Oh just to clear things up the 300 to 1400 speed came from something the BB person doing the blog read for another variable speed grinder…NOT the T64. Which as far as I am aware will be the same as the test sample I have 800-2000.
BB only have the single speed unit, until the one I have is returned to them.
