Who is the Mahlkönig Guatemala coffee grinder designed for?
The Guatemala is designed for coffee shops, roasteries, and coffee laboratories. Its adjustable collection table and bag clamp make it practical for grinding into containers or filling coffee bags.
What burrs does the Guatemala use?
It uses 71mm flat burrs made from special steel. The vertical burr arrangement helps reduce coffee left inside the grinding chamber, which is useful when preparing different coffees throughout the day.
How do I adjust the grind size and operate the grinder?
The Guatemala has stepped grind settings and manual on/off control. Recommended settings marked on the grinder provide a starting point. Adjust the grind to suit your coffee and brewing method.
What are the motor and electrical specifications?
This version requires a 220-240V supply. Its 1100W motor runs at 2900 RPM and drives the burrs directly. Check your electrical supply against the machine's requirements before ordering.
Can I grind directly into coffee bags or different containers?
Yes. The collection table is height-adjustable and removable to accommodate different containers. The bag clamp holds a coffee bag at the dispensing spout, and the metal knocker helps release grounds remaining at the outlet.
How much coffee does the hopper hold, and how much counter space is needed?
The plastic hopper holds 900g of coffee beans. The grinder has an aluminum housing and measures 330mm deep and 620mm high. Leave room above for loading beans and around the collection area for handling bags or containers.
Where is the grinder shipped from, and when is it dispatched?
We ship the Mahlkönig Guatemala directly from our warehouse in Italy, with worldwide shipping available. Dispatch is within 2-3 business days. This is the dispatch timeframe, not the delivery time.
