The la Pavoni Zip Grinder is a semi-automatic, professional grinder ideal for use in coffeehouses, bars, or restaurants. This elegantly designed grinder features an on and off switch, so you can be in complete control of how much coffee is ground each time. You may also choose to use the built-in doser, which adjusts from 5 to 8 grams. There is also an automatic stop that activates once the hopper is full. The body of the machine is made from die-cast anodized aluminum and is available in your choice of sleek red or black high-gloss enamels. Inside, the motor features .33 horsepower (1400 RPM) and a built-in thermal shield with class F installation; this prevents the grinding wheels from getting too hot and burning your beans, resulting in a loss of flavor. The grinding mills are 65.5mm in diameter and made from flat tempered steel.
This grinder has a safety device that stops the motor if the lid is lifted. It also has a lamp that warns if the appliance is under-powered. The hopper holds 2.2 pounds of coffee, and can produce about 13 pounds an hour. 8W x 13D x 21H inches; 29 pounds; 120 volts. Made in Italy; CSA certified.
