Since flat burrs achieve a significantly higher proportion of particles with the same shape and size than conical burr grinders, they are the ideal choice to achieve much more evenly ground coffee—and thus a higher quality and cleaner flavor. Compared to conical burrs, flat burrs also ensure greater dosing accuracy and hence a more consistent taste experience. We are the global leader in flat burr production with a state-of-the-art burr production facility in Hamburg, Germany.

The Mahlkönig X64 SD Single Dose Home Grinder flat steel burrs have an average lifespan of 500 kg of coffee ground through them. However, the actual maximum output depends on the selected grind size, the type of beans, and the roast level of the coffee. All these factors influence the actual degree of wear on the burrs. Changes in the fineness and the temperature of the ground coffee will indicate the burrs’ degree of wear and tear. We recommend changing the burrs when the ground coffee appears too coarse and/or too warm.

We recommend cleaning any home coffee grinder at least once a week with our food safe GRINDZ coffee cleaner. Simply grind GRINDZ through your grinder, just like coffee beans, to remove old coffee residues and coffee oils from the grinder casing and the burrs. Detailed information on the cleaning procedure can be found in the instructions manual for the X64 SD Single Dose Home Grinder or the GRINDZ grinder cleaner.

The surface of the grinder can be wiped with a damp, lint-free cloth. You should never use chemical detergents to clean your grinder since these could cause damage to the surface materials or even end up in your coffee.

The Mahlkönig X64 SD is designed specifically for grinding coffee beans. It is not suitable for grinding other products such as pepper, spices, poppy seeds or grains. Grinding products other than coffee beans with the X64 SD Single Dose Home could damage the grinder, incurring repair costs from a professional Mahlkönig service partner.

On the back of the grinder lid of the X64 SD Single Dose Home Grinder you will find an easy guidance on a scale of 0 to 12 to dial in the right grind size for your coffee. We recommend setting of 0 to 2 for espresso setting, from 2 to 7 for filter setting, and 7 to 12 for coarse settings that are suitable for e.g. cold brew coffee. This is an indication that may vary between different types of coffees and roast grades.

The X64 SD Single Dose Home Grinder features a stepless grind adjustment knob that allows you to change the positioning of the burrs without predefined “steps”. This is essential for making espresso, as it allows you to make tiny, nearly invisible, changes to the grind size on the micron-level to dial in the perfect shot (rather than being limited to a few pre-determined sizes).

To change your grind size, simply turn the knob. You can go from a setting for very fine espresso all the way to a coarse setting for cold brew coffee by turning the knob. Ensure to empty the grinding chamber and run through all coffee residuals in your X64 SD Single Dose Home Grinder when adjusting the grind size to a finer setting, to prevent the adjustment mechanism from sticking or damage.
