The E65S is an on-demand espresso grinder designed for portafilter workflow — you grind directly into the portafilter with programmable doses. The EK43 is a single-dose batch grinder with larger 98mm burrs, designed for grinding into a container. The E65S is better for busy espresso bars; the EK43 excels at single-dosing and multi-method brewing. Is the E65S suitable for home use? It can be, if you want commercial-grade consistency at home. At 12.2 kg and 620mm tall, it's larger than typical home grinders. It's most at home in small cafes, coffee carts, and restaurants, but dedicated home baristas who want Mahlkoenig quality do use it. How does the stepless adjustment work? The E65S uses a single-handed adjustment ring with an independent locking mechanism. You turn the ring to set your grind size, then lock it in place so it can't drift during use. Stepless means infinite positions between settings — finer control than stepped grinders. Care & Maintenance Purge a small amount of beans through the grinder before your first shots each day to clear stale grounds. Clean the burr chamber weekly by removing retained grounds with the cleaning brush. The special steel burrs are long-lasting but should be inspected periodically under heavy commercial use. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Do not use water inside the grinding chamber.
