There are four versions of the Mazzer Mini, each catering to different needs and functionalities. While we stock parts for the most common versions, here’s an overview of the available models:
- Mazzer Mini A Electronic
- Mazzer Mini B Electronic
- Mazzer Mini Doser
- Mazzer Mini Filter
Each version shares some similarities, but they also feature key differences, particularly in their grinding mechanisms and control interfaces.
Grinding Burrs
The Mazzer Mini A and Mazzer Mini B models both use flat burrs. These burrs are designed for precision grinding, ensuring consistent particle size for optimal coffee extraction. However, the Mazzer Mini Doser uses a smaller model of burr, which is not compatible with the A and B versions. The flat burrs provide excellent performance for espresso grinding and can be adjusted to suit different brew preferences.
Mazzer Mini A Electronic
The Mazzer Mini A Electronic is unique in its design, featuring a touchpanel located on top of the coffee funnel. This panel allows the user to select the desired coffee dose, whether single or double, with just a few taps. The absence of a microswitch in the portafilter holder provides a sleeker, more modern operation. This model is ideal for users who prefer precise control and ease of use through an electronic interface.
Mazzer Mini B Electronic
The Mazzer Mini B Electronic differs from the A model in its operation. Instead of using a touchpanel, the B model relies on a microswitch to control the coffee grinding process. By pressing the portafilter against the switch, users can activate either a single dose (with one tap) or a double dose (with two taps). This makes the B model slightly more traditional in its functionality compared to the A version, offering a hands-on approach to coffee dosing.
Mazzer Mini Doser
The Mazzer Mini Doser is the most classic of the Mazzer Mini models. This version includes a doser on the front of the coffee grinder, which stores a small quantity of pre-ground coffee. The doser allows baristas to dispense coffee quickly and efficiently, making it ideal for environments where speed is important. The dosage can be adjusted by turning the doser mechanism clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the desired coffee quantity. As previously mentioned, the grinding burrs on the Mazzer Mini Doser are not compatible with the burrs used on the A and B models.
Why Choose the Mazzer Mini?
The Mazzer Mini is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a reliable, high-quality coffee grinder. Whether used in the home, small cafés, or as a secondary grinder in busier establishments, the Mazzer Mini delivers consistent performance and flexibility. The availability of multiple models, each with its own strengths, ensures that there is a Mazzer Mini to suit every need.
