ECM C-Manuale 54 Espresso Grinder – Cream

ECM C-Manuale 54 Overview

The grinder is the single most important piece of equipment that accompanies an espresso machine and we can tell that ECM kept this in mind when they designed the C-Manuale 54 burr grinder. With a strong but quiet 235W motor and a set of 54mm stainless steel burrs, this grinder is all about value. The unique cream color matches perfectly with the Puristika espresso machine in cream and features wood accenting on the hopper lid and a blue grind adjustment dial.

Features and Performance

You’ll find the C-Manuale 54 is easy to set up and use. Grind adjustment is stepped, so you can easily dial in for a range of brew methods and return the adjustment collar to just the right spot when you feel like switching back. Owing to its name, the C-Manuale 54 manual grinds only, making it a stand-out option for those who want more control and don’t want to bother with programming dosage. A nice finishing touch we noticed is the vented housing for greater airflow and cooler operation so your coffee beans aren’t affected during the grinding process.

Why You Should Get It

All-in-all, the C-Manuale 54 stands out as a solid companion to any prosumer home espresso machine. The stepless grind adjustment means you have very fine control over your grind setting, which really helps when dialing in your espresso. The stainless steel housing adds some class and durability, as well.
