Time-based digital dosing
The timer lets you fine-tune the grinding time and use the same setting for the next dose. This is useful when finding the amount of coffee that suits a particular brewing method.
A set time alone does not guarantee the same weight in every dose or the same taste in every cup. The amount of ground coffee can also depend on the beans and the grind setting. For more precise control, you can weigh the coffee after grinding.
Grinding for espresso and filter coffee
The grind size can be adjusted for different brewing methods. Espresso generally calls for a finer grind, a moka pot for a slightly coarser grind, and filter coffee and French press for coarser grinds. Choosing a suitable setting helps influence extraction and, in turn, the flavour of the coffee.
The ability to change the grind size is particularly useful in a household where different brewing methods are used.
Controls and portafilter use
The HiBREW G3 supports three common portafilter sizes. You can switch between their settings by holding a button for two seconds. The supported dimensions are not specified, so check compatibility with your own portafilter.
Less retained coffee and static
A dual-layer air-blowing system helps reduce the amount of ground coffee left in the grinder after use. This can make cleaning easier and reduce residue between doses.
A built-in negative ion generator reduces static electricity during grinding. As a result, coffee grounds cling less to surfaces, making them easier to handle and the worktop easier to clean.
Dimensions and weight
The grinder measures 110 × 165 × 320 mm and weighs 1.6 kg. Its compact body takes up less space on the kitchen counter, while its low weight makes it easier to move or store.
