Unlike many other coffee grinders that use flat burrs, the Eureka Olympus KR is fitted with conical grinding blades, which offer a different grinding style, often providing more uniformity and consistency. The conical burrs on this model have a right-hand turning direction, and they come in two sizes:
These conical burrs are ideal for producing consistent grounds, suitable for espresso brewing and other coffee preparation methods.
The Eureka Olympus KR coffee grinder is available exclusively in single-phase versions, which can be configured to either 110V or 220/240V depending on your local electrical setup. Since it operates on a single-phase system, the grinder requires a start capacitor to ensure the motor starts efficiently. This is a key difference between single-phase and three-phase grinders, as three-phase models typically do not require a start capacitor.
The ground coffee produced by the conical burrs is transferred to the coffee doser, located on the front of the grinder. The doser stores a set amount of ground coffee, which can be dispensed manually by pulling a lever located on the side of the doser. With each pull of the lever, a specific amount of coffee is released, making it easy to fill portafilters or containers with the desired amount of ground coffee.
After a certain number of lever pulls, the grinder will automatically start again for a few seconds to refill the doser. This ensures that there is always ground coffee ready to use, without needing to grind fresh beans each time. For busy cafes or bars, this feature is particularly valuable, allowing for quick service during peak times.
Like all coffee grinders, the Eureka Olympus KR requires regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance. The conical burrs should be cleaned periodically to remove coffee residue, and over time, they may need to be replaced due to wear. Additionally, the doser mechanism and start capacitor may require replacement as part of regular maintenance.
