Overview:

The brand new iMini is a superb burr coffee grinder from Ascaso, a company that specialises in commercial and domestic coffee equipment. Its compact size makes it ideal for domestic use and it is extremely solidly made.

Turning the knob on the side of the grinder allows the grind setting to be adjusted to any point on a continuous scale from the finest to the coarsest setting, making it easy to grind coffee for any type of coffee making. It allows very small adjustments to be made very easily making it one of the few grinders that can achieve the perfect grind setting for making espresso.

The body of this i-Mini is made from aluminium which is then powder coated to give a durable black finish. It has a small integral tray below the chute to catch split coffee grounds. The hopper is made from clear plastic and holds approximately 250g of coffee beans. The hopper just lifts off for washing and the top of the grinder is easily removed to allow access to the burrs for cleaning.

The ground coffee is dispensed directly into your portafilter handle from the chute, simply hold the portafilter handle against the button on the front of the grinder to activate the grinding mechanism. If you do not use an espresso machine you can dispense the coffee into a small cup or container.
