I see the noise of the grinder as a bonus in my house. When you hear the Sette, you know it's coffee time! In the mornings, it tells people it's time to get up; at dinner parties, it tells people their coffees are being served soon. FYI, the S30 is stepped, the S270 & Wi are stepless. Yes, there are markings on the micro ring, but they don't 'click' from one to the next. You can easily grind on e.g. setting 7, D & 1/4. Good review and love your videos.

I love my 270wi. I spent $40 on the 500g acia calibration weight. I'm impressed on weighing accuracy, usually +/- .1 gram. I don't find the grind volume particularly loud or annoying, considering they last for only ~5 seconds a grind. It turns out Etzinger makes a metal version of this grinder, etzMax... for a whopping $3K... makes me more ok with the plastiky build of the Sette. I only have 1 shim installed, with my grinds in the mid-#6 setting. I really find no appeal in single-shot grinders, so the 270wi is perfect for me.

I had this grinder for a short period of time. The first sec I saw it I couldn’t resist the look and the operating concepts. HOWEVER, this finder is fast and furious….it was SO load I couldn’t use it in the am…. Workaround was to grind the night before….but that was kinda missing the point. I had to ship it back and got a Eureka minion instead…. Takes longer time to grind but so Quiet. One this time mention as a BIG advantage of the 7 is Baratza rock solid customer care… this guys are unbelievable and will walk above and beyond to make customer happy

Thank you for the video. I paired the Sette 30 with the Breville Duo Temp Pro and get perfect espresso for me. I am sure others would be more finicky, but I can choke the Duo Temp Pro if I grind at near 8, so a setting of 10 gets me a great shot every time. I use a bottomless portafilter with an IMS precision 18-22g basket and put 18 grams in for a wonderful shot. As for noise, meh, I picked up the Sette 30 for $200 new, I'll deal with a little noise, it is a GREAT grinder. I will get the 270 adjustment head when I need it and pick up the other burr set and then have the best of both worlds, a grinder that can do the best espresso grinds as well as a great all around grinder with a simple 30 second head change.

I own the 270wi (shipped to me in error as I ordered the 270) and have no problem with plastic casing. Looks great and grinds well. Thinking about installing a shim as mine is set at 2, so not much room to move. No one else is up when I'm grinding but it is loud. I found it best to grind into a container because there was a lot of spillage when grinding directly into the portafilter and this also gives me a repeatable dose (no cantilevering of the portafilter). I get no clumping and a nice grind.

It fits perfectly on sette 270wi portafilter holder. This way make my work flow very clean, smooth and fast where no weight scale on my counter. Just press the weight program and grind setting I programmed, the result is super quick and easy switching from espresso to pour over and cold brew. Cheer.

I am perfectly happy with my Sette 30. I have changed the adjustment ring which gives me the features of the 270. I can weigh my own coffee and don't need a build in scale or timer. I am single dosing only (I switch coffee bens often) and weigh coffee in and coffee out. Noisy is true but I am single and it only takes a few seconds to grind a dose. It would wake up a partner or a roommate though (probably).
@raitro2 жыл бұрын
I did not read all the comments so this might be repetitive, but grinding 18gr. of coffee beans for espresso on a Baratza Sette 270wi will not take longer than 5-6 seconds and for sure not 11... (except if you think, that single dosing means that you put each single bean in the grinder one after the other) :-) This grinder is not built for eternity but with any grinder, you will have to change the burrs sooner or later. I had do change the gearbox of my Sette 270wi after three years of daily use. In this time I might approximately have ground around 60 to 70 kilos of coffee, which seems quite little in comparison to other grinders, but I guess this might be a normal szenario for home-users. Changing the gearbox is simple, cheap and afterwards you also have a brandnew outer bur in your grinder because this is one part. In my opinion it is for sure one of the cleanest grinders. If you do not use superdark roasts, there will be hardly any static at all and everything you grind will go straight into the portafilter and not next to it. The distribution is top and the fluffiness amazing. If you just tap the portafilter on a rubber mat you do not even need a distributor but just a tamper to get extractions from a bottomless portafilter with zero channelling. I can not think of a weight based grinding solution with a better price and workflow. Yes, longevity is a problem, but if you are not afraid of repairing your grinder yourself, Baratza has all the parts and delivers very fast...

I really really love the 270 Wi from the perspective of the uniformity and fluffy grind result. However, the micro ring sometimes move toward coarser setting by itself while grinding due to the vibration. It also grinds very fast with a very fluffy result so it would over fill the portafilter even when I use the proper dose, I have to grind halfway, knock the portafilter, and then continue grinding to prevent spilling. One more thing, the rubber catch bin is way too small, my tabletop is now messier compared to when I still use the Breville Smart Grinder.

Love the video! The noise can definitely be a little much in the morning. However just want to comment that I have Sette 270wi too, I don’t seem to have any of the finicky issues you mentioned. Just put the portafilter on and consistently getting +/- 0.1 to 0.2 gram deviation. No fuss. I understand the point of potentially getting inconsistent result from using different portafilters. However, in practice, majority of the people will only have one portafilter rather than multiple ones like reviewers do…..so I don’t know how relevant that concern will or should be. Also, Sette 30 has even more plastic bits comparing to the 270 or 270 wi as well, that would be another small difference aside from the micro adjustments.
