- Typical capacity
- For this class of commercial grinder, throughput typically ranges from 20 to 60 kg per hour, depending on the desired grind fineness.
- Power supply
- Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, though single-phase variants may exist for smaller models.
- Grinding mechanism
- Commercial coffee grinders commonly utilise burr grinding mechanisms, often flat or conical, made from hardened steel for durability and consistent particle size.
- Adjustable grind settings
- Units typically feature multiple grind settings, allowing for adjustment from coarse (e.g., for French press) to very fine (e.g., for espresso or Turkish coffee).
- Hopper capacity
- The integrated bean hopper commonly holds between 1 to 5 kg of whole coffee beans, reducing the frequency of refilling.
- Footprint
- For this category, typical dimensions are approximately 300-500mm (width) x 400-700mm (depth) x 600-900mm (height), requiring a stable counter or floor space.
