For improved efficiency, this single-dose grinder also features anti-popcorn mechanism to prevent beans from bouncing and breaking off into inconsistent pieces, enhancing grinding speed and quality. The DF54 also includes a 58mm food-grade transparent plastic dosing cup, perfect for use over portafilters.

Great Grinder

Aside from a cheap Kmart grinder, this is my first real coffee grinder. As such I'm no expert, but I'm really pleased with this things. It grinds my coffee nice and consistently, isn't too loud when it grinds and is reasonably low profile in my kitchen. Very pleased with it so far.

Happy customer

First time buyer of a home coffee grinder. After a bit of online research, decided on the DF54 Single Dose Grinder. Am very happy with this grinder so far, it’s easy to use, a perfect size, grinds beautifully and also manages to look great! Thanks AB.

Great Performance and Looks Perfect with My Setup

I’m extremely pleased with the DF54. Coming from the built-in grinder on my previous Barista Express, the improvement in grind quality and consistency is immediately noticeable. The grinder itself feels sturdy and well-built, and the white finish pairs perfectly with my Sea Salt Breville Dual Boiler. Shipping was quick and the overall purchase process was seamless.

Next Level

Switched from a Breville grinder to the DF54 and we’re blown away. My partner and I use different beans (I drink decaf), so single dosing is perfect for us. It’s super consistent, quiet, and easy to dial in. Way better than the Breville, no going back!

Great budget grinder

I haven't used alternative grinders so can't comment too much on that, but as an entry level grinder it's getting good results compared to my local cafe. The only minus is the plastic dosing cup which tends to create some static so did buy an aftermarket metal one.

FAQ

Turn clockwise for a finer grind (espresso), turn counter clockwise for a coarser grind (filter coffee)
The DF54 delivers highly consistent grind sizes, which is crucial for brewing methods like espresso where uniformity impacts taste and extraction
Yes, it will come calibrated and set at zero
Anywhere between 15 and 30, but best to start at 20 and adjust to taste

Hi, I currently have a Baratza 270wi brewing on a Breville Barista Express. The Baratza was definitely an improvement in taste over the inbuilt grinder but I'm chasing the same flavour as my local Cafe (that closed) using the same beans they used (Beam Coffee). Am I being naive to think a flat burr DF54 would achieve an even better result than the Baratza and be similar in taste to the big flat burr grinders that cafes use? Happy to consider other grinders around this price point if you think they suit.

Hi Brett, Thanks for your question. The DF54 is a solid step up for clarity and consistency, especially with flat burrs, but it’s good to keep in mind that domestic grinders won’t fully replicate a commercial setup with a pro barista. At this price point, the Varia VS3 Gen 2 and Eureka Mignon Specialita are also great options worth considering. Both offer excellent performance and are well-suited to chasing cafe-style espresso at home. Kind Regards,

Hi, I understand that the DF54 doesn't have a fixed zero point. Is this the same for all flat burr grinders? Also, is there an attachment that you could provide to adjust to reflect the true zero point? Lastly, does the zero point always change if you unscrew the top part of the flat burr to clean? Thanks for your advice.
Answers (1)
Hi Dan, Thanks for reaching out. The DF54 doesn’t have a factory-set zero point — like many single-dose flat burr grinders, it relies on user calibration. These grinders have a fixed indicator, but it may not always align with the actual zero point out of the box. Many users choose to manually mark the dial to reflect their calibrated zero. There are some third-party 3D-printed indicators that can assist with this too. After disassembly for cleaning, the zero point can shift slightly if the top burr isn’t reinstalled in exactly the same position, so a quick recalibration is recommended to maintain consistency. Kind Regards,
