The Mahlkonig Guatemala Shop Grinder is a simple yet powerful all-purpose retail grinder that focuses on accessibility in both price and operation. With simple controls and a printed guide to assist with grind selection, this grinder is well suited to shops with employees who are new to specialty coffee. Thanks to its 71mm vertically mounted burrs the Guatemala can grind at up 15g/sec.

Features and Benefits

With just two buttons and a graphical grind size reference, the Guatemala is a grinder that can be easily operated by baristas of any skill level. With 20 grind settings that range from cold-brew coarse to espresso fine, a bag clip, knocker and height adjustable table, the grinder is well suited for on-demand retail bag grinding for any brew method. The 71mm burrs are mounted vertically so that ground coffee falls directly through them and into the bag below.

To operate the grinder, simply load coffee into the grinding chamber via the hatch on the top and start the motor. Thanks to the vertical design, the Guatemala achieves grind speeds between 13-15g/sec or 800-900g/min depending on your setting. The burrs have a 3,000kg/6,613lb lifespan and the grinder conforms to a wide range of safety and sanitation certifications.
