X54

Mahlkonig 'made' the x54, that is actually a rebranded (and recased (and 2X the cost of a) HeyCafe. Same thing with the X64SD.So naturally, when they shown the all new X64WS the first thing i did was check if HeyCafe had something similar. After comparing specs, that would be the 'buddy'. I have an

Thanks for the detailed reply! I have a Mahlkonig X54 paired to my Micra and I’ve been pretty underwhelmed (performance and build quality), sounds like this is in another league though

Thats exactly it…just like x54 or e64 these are also produced in China by HeyCafe as opposed to Germany like a traditional Mahlkonig…its sad to see people have such experience with “Mahlkonig” you would expect a premium from such a brand

Yes the df is great for the price and can have the burrs swapped. If you are looking at under 800 you have options. I agree with you on the Niche its good but pricey with tariffs. Some may say the femobook but I am not sold on it. If its espresso you want and not an all in one grinder I would look a

Ik heb de SMart grinder Pro ook gehad en gaf toch een van de lekkerste kopjes die ik ooit gemaakt.

It’s definitely at its best when you’re using the hopper for a group of people because the timed dosing is great, but I

Ascaso Steel Uno for fast heat up (or the Duo if you can stretch the budget a bit) The Specialita should be good 👍🏻 Also Mahlkonig grinders are known for their build quality, so maybe check out the X54.

The mahlkonig looks amazing and I got their email today as well! I just see you have the mahlkonig x54 and are looking to upgrade, that can’t just be for GBW? At the end of the day it’s smaller and less heavy duty, made in china, and more things to break with their digital adjustment. Or so I tell m
