FAQ
Is 64 mm always better than 50 mm?
Not always. 64 mm can be faster, but cup quality also depends on burr geometry, alignment, and beans. For most home bars, 50 mm performs excellently.
Do I need programmable dosing?
Timed dosing speeds up routine prep. If you weigh every dose, manual pulse is fine.
Are these quiet?
All three are relatively quiet compact grinders; Faustino is often perceived as the quietest in kitchen settings.
What voltage do I need?
110–120V in the U.S.; check dedicated circuit requirements.
