The entry-level, all-purpose Baratza Encore Coffee Grinder is perfect for beginning home brewing for those just dipping their toes into a coffee lifestyle. With an optimal grind for manual/drip brews, it can also accommodate for espressos. 

This conical burr grinder has a meticulous method for coarse grinding that is has become progressively more popular with manual brews such as pour-over, Siphon, Aeropress, and Chemex. The distinctively designed burrs contribute to a specific grind that has minimal fines for more delicious, even extraction while brewing espresso.

The Baratza Encore features the same quality standards in parts and production that Baratza Coffee Grinders are known for. A powerful DC motor reduces the amount of heat held in beans, even while being ground down for extensive periods of time. A unique composition of electric and gear speed reduction brings the burr to a slower grind at 450 RPM, allowing for a silkier bean feed and a reduction in static buildup, heat, and noise.

The Encore not only aids in an enjoyable brew, but it also provides an enjoyable experience to operate. An easy-to-use front-mounted pulse knob provides an easy way to grind up your favorite blend at the touch of a button. The Baratza Encore provides any type of grind for an expansive range of brewing methods to meet your daily needs and is a good all-around home grinder to keep in your kitchen.

FEATURES:

• European manufactured burrs: The Encore's 40 mm conical burrs accommodate for numerous types of coffee. The conical burrs can expertly grind down beans that run the range of the finest to the coarsest and are strong enough to retain their sharpness for years on end.
• Unique DC motor:  The Encore's formidable, high torque DC motor drives the burrs with ease. The slowly turning motor operates quietly, even during extended grinding duty-cycles, resulting in more slowly heated, smoother beans for a professional quality grind. Like other Baratza grinder models, the Encore is equipped with an automatic, thermal cutoff switch to prevent overheating and blown power sockets.
• Increased adjustment abilities: Turning the Encore's hopper introduces 40 different settings that can be used to accommodate for coarse grinds for French Press brews and finer grinds for espressos. The grinder features a grinding range from 250 to 1200 microns.
• Expertly managed speed control: The Encore uses a sequence of gear and electronic speed minimization to regulate burr rotation to 500 RPM. A slower speed helps to diminish noise, warmth, and static within the grinder, also assuring that beans flow evenly into the burrs.
• Easy operation:  A convenient on-off switch allows you to operate the Encore at the push of a button. It also increases freshness by reducing the amount of grinds kept in the grinder and features easily removable burrs for efficient clean-up.
