Doser Grinder Design
The La Cimbali MD Junior is a doser grinder, meaning that it comes equipped with a doser reservoir at the front of the grinder. This doser collects a specific amount of pre-ground coffee, which can be used immediately. The doser allows baristas to quickly and efficiently dose coffee into the portafilter without waiting for the grinder to run for each shot. This is particularly useful in environments where speed and consistency are essential, like small coffee bars or kiosks.
Grinding Burrs
The La Cimbali MD Junior grinder uses flat grinding burrs, ensuring precise and consistent grinding for excellent coffee extraction. The burrs in this grinder are right-turning, and they have the following specifications:
- Outer Diameter: 64mm
- Inner Diameter: 37mm
- Thickness: 9mm
- Mounting Holes: 3
These flat burrs are designed for longevity and to maintain consistency in grind size, which is key to producing great espresso. The right-turning burrs ensure optimal grinding performance and precision for commercial applications.
Motor and Voltage Options
The La Cimbali MD Junior is only available in a single phase configuration, making it suitable for standard electrical setups in small offices or homes. The coffee grinder comes in two voltage options:
These voltage options ensure that the MD Junior can be used in different regions and electrical environments. The single-phase configuration provides steady power to the grinder, ensuring consistent grinding without the need for complex electrical installations.
Why Choose a Doser Grinder?
The doser grinder design of the La Cimbali MD Junior makes it an excellent choice for users who value speed and efficiency. The doser allows baristas to grind coffee in advance and store it in the doser container. When it's time to brew, the coffee can be quickly dispensed into the portafilter by pulling the dosing lever. This feature is particularly beneficial in busy settings where multiple shots of espresso are pulled in quick succession.
While on-demand grinders have become more popular in recent years, many baristas still prefer the speed and simplicity of a doser grinder like the MD Junior, especially in high-volume environments where workflow efficiency is critical.
