Complete the setup
This machine needs a separate grinder. These come from the same Gemilai range, with the same 2-year UAE warranty.
64 mm flat burrs with half-step adjustment for dialling in espresso, and a single-dose hopper in the box.
The compact 60 mm flat-burr option, espresso to French press, with timed dosing.
DLC-coated 64 mm burrs and a 50-position rotary collar: finer control over a longer burr life.
