Key Features And What They Mean
Doser
The Mazzer Super Jolly's doser mechanism allows you to accurately dose the coffee, providing precision that will result in a better cup of coffee.
The grinder will dispense the exact amount of coffee grounds as needed for an espresso. Not only does this guarantee a perfectly portioned dose, it provides consistency so that every espresso is perfectly measured for optimal extraction.
If you're an espresso enthusiast building your home coffee station or a business owner offering premium coffee, you can rely on a doser grinder to limit human error and promote a consistently excellent product.
Flat Burrs
You can find flat burr grinders in high-end coffee shops everywhere. They're known to deliver a richly extracted coffee and amplify distinct layers of flavor.
The Mazzer Super Jolly's 64 mm burrs create uniform coffee particles that will facilitate a smoother, more balanced extraction process.
How well your coffee is extracted starts with the grind. If you own a coffee shop, this is critical for establishing your business as a top coffee destination.
Low Blade Speed
At 1,600 RPM, the Mazzer Super Jolly's blade speed promotes a cool grinding environment for the beans.
It's important to pay attention to temperature control when selecting a grinder. Overheating will compromise the quality of the coffee beans, making them taste burned and bitter.
Because the Mazzer Super Jolly operates at a low speed, there's no risk of heat damage, ensuring a better-tasting product.
Stepless Grind Adjustment
With stepless micrometrical grind adjustment, you can zero in on the precise grind setting for every coffee profile.
The Mazzer Super Jolly's micro-tuning allows baristas to make the smallest of changes to the grind that will make big impacts on flavor.
Large Hopper
The Mazzer Super Jolly hopper can hold up to 2.7 pounds of coffee beans, which is particularly useful for cafes.
Having a grinder with a large enough hopper to prepare for the rush gives baristas the opportunity to focus on speed, efficiency and customer service without being interrupted by an empty hopper.
Different Configurations
Mazzer Super Jolly Doser Espresso Grinder 2810
The Mazzer Super Jolly Doser Espresso Grinder's doser mechanism lets you change the dosing levels from 5.5 to nine grams. The coffee is ground into a doser chamber and then accurately portioned into the portafilter.
This is an adaptable model for coffee lovers and professionals looking for a quality machine with a high standard of performance. In short, it will help you make a great cup of coffee.
If the space you have for a grinder is on the small side, check out the Mazzer Mini short hopper, which lowers the height of the grinder to 19 inches. (The hopper, lid and sliding trap door are sold separately.)
Mazzer Super Jolly E Doser Espresso Grinder 2810E
With an electronic dosing system, the Mazzer Super Jolly E offers on-demand grinding that portions the coffee directly into the portafilter in single or double shot doses.
This configuration also has a digital display with a shot counter that increases the user friendliness of the grinder. Like the first configuration, this one will fit the Mazzer Mini short hopper if you need a more compact version.
For the quickest, simplest dosing with high precision, the Mazzer Super Jolly E is an excellent choice.
Comparable Alternatives
Mazzer Major Timer/Doser Coffee Grinder 2822
As another doser grinder with a large hopper and flat grinding discs, the Mazzer Major can be compared to the Mazzer Super Jolly.
Here are some of the Mazzer Major's features:
- 83 mm grinding discs
- 2.7-pound bean hopper
- 1,600 RPM blade speed
The burrs in the Mazzer Major are larger at 83 mm. Bigger burrs can easily handle larger quantities of coffee beans. They also tend to be highly efficient at keeping the beans cool.
The Mazzer Major does have a higher price tag, though both grinders are rated for medium consumption.
Mazzer Robur Electronic Espresso Grinder 2844E
If you're looking for a grinder to compare with the Mazzer Super Jolly E, try the Mazzer Robur Electronic Espresso Grinder.
Here are some of the functions these grinders share:
- Stepless grind adjustment
- Grinding on demand
- Single or double electronic dosing
- Digital display with a shot counter
- Low blade speed
One of the big differences is in the Mazzer Robur's burr type. With 71 mm conical burrs, the Mazzer Robur grinds at a lower blade speed than flat burr grinders, providing the greatest temperature control.
The conical burrs won't grind the coffee with the same particle consistency, but this doesn't mean poor flavor quality. Rather, it means access to different styles of shot pulling.
No matter which type of grinder you invest in, you'll need to account for burr type in your grind settings to craft excellent espresso.
