“ТОП КОФЕМОЛОК для дома • Что покупать в 2025? • Более 40 кофемолок за 39 минут! • Гид по выбору”

Overview

This video is a comprehensive guide and review of over 40 electric coffee grinders for home use, categorized by price ranges. Dmitry from Coffee Zavr provides expert insights covering key features, pros and cons, user experiences, and recommendations for each segment. The goal is to help viewers avoid unnecessary purchases and choose the best grinder for their needs.

Key Information by Price Range

Budget up to 10,000 RUB

Mostly unknown or Chinese brands (e.g., Kit for GVC, NVR, SOS).
Typically conical metal burrs, not ceramic; small burr diameters.
Questionable quality, durability, and grinding precision (especially for espresso and Turkish coffee).
Many grinders use pseudo burrs that crush beans poorly.
Portion grinding features like “blow up” (to clear residue) and short spouts are rare or absent.
Static elimination (ionizer) is generally missing.
Overall, this range is considered an “adventure” zone with poor reliability. Dmitry advises saving money instead of buying here.

10,000 to 15,000 RUB

Notable models:
- HBW G5: Universal grinder, handles espresso and filter well, fine grind, good ergonomics. Difficult to find currently but recommended.
- Chif Mini: Chinese copy of the M Mini grinder, stylish and compact, likely universal but better to confirm suitability for espresso.
Other brands (Itop) offer grinders in this range but are considered “adventure” purchases with uncertain quality and delivery issues.
Recommendation: Focus on HBW G5 and Chif Mini for reliability.

15,000 to 20,000 RUB

Entry-level Eureka grinders (e.g., Minion Crown) appear, good for filter coffee; some models have timers.
DF54: 54 mm flat burrs, universal (espresso + filter), 150W motor (slow but effective), highly praised by users.
Some “adventure” grinders with large burrs (64 mm) and touch displays exist but are unproven and not recommended.
Buying from verified sellers with good return policies is advised.
Summary: For universal use, DF54 is recommended; for filter coffee, entry-level Eureka models are good.

20,000 to 30,000 RUB

DF64: The standout choice, 64 mm flat burrs compatible with Mazzer burrs, powerful motor, ionizer and blow up features included.
Considered a lifetime purchase, solving most home grinding needs.
Price fluctuates between 29,000 to 33,000 RUB currently.
DF64V: Variant with magnetic spout and adjustable burr speed; less useful than ionizer but still good.
Fellow Opus (DF64 V2): Premium design, good ergonomics, ionizer included; more expensive but recommended if DF64 design is not preferred.
TAR Sculptor 64 / 64S: High-quality grinders with vertical magazines, good for filter (64) and espresso (64S), but lack ionizer and blow up.
Not recommended:
- Varia VS3 (conical burrs, 38-48 mm) – overpriced and outperformed by cheaper HBW G5 and DF54.
- Incore Bar and Seta Bar – less compelling compared to DF grinders.
- Fellow Opus entry-level with conical burrs – less attractive than DF54.

50,000 to 100,000 RUB

Higher-end DF grinders (DF83, DF83V) with variable burr speed, universal for espresso and alternative methods.
Nish Zra: Conical burr grinder favored for espresso due to flavor profile; priced around 70,000-90,000 RUB.
TAR Sculptor 078 / 078S: Premium grinders for alternative brewing and espresso, considered excellent and used by professionals.
Not recommended:
- Nish Du E: Larger burrs (83 mm flat) but no advantage over DF83; DF83 preferred.
Chinese brands (Itop, La Star G, Barce Prop) offer models similar to known grinders but are less reliable and not widely recommended.
Copies of Malic K43 and EK43S exist, with EK43S copies available from Russian sellers on AliExpress but considered “adventure” buys.

100,000 RUB and above (Premium Segment)

MAC EK43S: Legendary universal grinder, highly regarded, suitable for home use, but hard to find in Russia.
Weber E1 EG1: Well-designed, premium grinder with good reputation; recommended if budget is unlimited.

Main Features Highlighted

Burr type and size (flat vs. conical, 38 mm to 83 mm) crucial for grind quality and speed.
Presence of ionizer and blow up system for static reduction and residue clearing improves user experience.
Portion grinding capability with short spouts and compatibility with espresso portafilters (58 mm diameter).
Motor power affects grinding speed and efficiency.
Ergonomics and design impact ease of use and kitchen fit.
Price-performance ratio varies widely, with many “adventure” models offering uncertain quality.

User Experience & Community Feedback

Many users in coffee chats and Telegram groups recommend DF grinders (especially DF54 and DF64) for their reliability and performance.
Some “adventure” grinders from Chinese brands have mixed reviews and uncertain after-sales support.
Buying from verified sellers with return policies is emphasized.
Ionizer and blow up features are highly valued by users to reduce static and residue buildup.

Comparisons

DF grinders (especially DF64) outperform similarly priced conical burr grinders like Varia VS3 and entry-level Fellow Opus.
HBW G5 is preferred over conical burr grinders in the 10-15k range.
Nish Zra is favored for espresso flavor profile over DF83 in the 50-100k range.
TAR Sculptor models compete well with professional lab grinders at a lower cost.

Speakers’ Different Views

Dmitry (main expert): Strongly favors DF series grinders for universal home use, advises caution with cheap “adventure” grinders, and recommends saving for DF64 or better.
Other community members (via chats): Positive feedback on DF grinders, some interest in Fellow Opus and TAR Sculptor for design or specific use cases.
Some users prefer Nish Zra for espresso flavor despite higher price.

Overall Verdict

For home coffee grinding in 2025, the DF64 coffee grinder stands out as the best all-around choice, offering excellent build quality, powerful motor, large flat burrs, ionizer, and blow up features, making it a lifetime investment. For those on a tighter budget, the DF54 and HBW G5 are solid, reliable options. Entry-level grinders under 10,000 RUB are generally not recommended due to poor performance and durability. In higher price segments, professional-grade grinders like DF83, Nish Zra, and TAR Sculptor offer specialized performance for espresso or alternative brewing, while premium models like the MAC EK43S and Weber E1 EG1 are top-tier choices for enthusiasts with no budget constraints.

Recommendation

Save and invest in proven models like DF64 or DF54 for best value and performance. Avoid cheap, unknown brands and “adventure” purchases unless willing to accept risks. For espresso lovers, consider Nish Zra or TAR Sculptor 64S if budget allows.
