The Profitec Pro T64 is a powerful grind-on-demand grinder for users who want to leave their regular beans in the hopper and grind several espressos in quick succession. It is larger and more robustly designed than the compact TWIST A54 and is clearly positioned as a classic 64-mm hopper grinder. The portafilter is held directly under the outlet or hooked into the adjustable holder. This creates a fast workflow without a dosing cup and without having to portion the beans beforehand.
The 64-mm steel burr grinder can be adjusted steplessly and provides sufficient fineness for precise espresso dial-in. The grinding time can be programmed digitally and adjusted in tenths of a second. Two dose buttons allow typical single or double doses to be dispensed directly; manual grinding is also possible. An integrated counter helps keep track of usage.
With a 500-gram bean hopper and a more powerful motor, the Pro T64 is particularly appealing for households with higher consumption or small professional environments. The height-adjustable portafilter holder allows hands-free grinding and makes parallel tasks easier. Compared with a grind-by-weight grinder, the actual dose is still estimated based on runtime and should be checked whenever the beans or grind size is changed. In return, the workflow remains robust, direct, and free of additional weighing equipment.
Those who frequently switch between different beans will be more flexible with the TWIST SD54 or another single-dose grinder. Those who use one regular espresso bean and prepare several drinks in quick succession, however, will benefit much more from the Pro T64. The industrial look with stainless steel and a dark hopper pairs perfectly with Profitec machines such as RIDE, DRIVE, or Pro 600. For greater individuality, matching wooden side panels can be added to customize the grinder's appearance for a premium setup.
