Timed, weight or Sync?
Three ways to dose. One suits your bar.
How a grinder decides when to stop is the biggest difference between the models. Here is what each one does.
- Time
Runs for a set time
Simple and fast. The dose can drift as beans age or the grind changes, so baristas check it through the day.
- Simple to use
- The lowest price
Models: E65S, E80S
- Weight
Stops at your exact dose
A scale in the portafilter fork weighs the coffee as it grinds and stops at your dose, for example 18.0 g.
- The same dose every shot
- Less wasted coffee
Models: E65W GbS, E80W GbS
- Most automaticSync
Corrects its own grind
The grinder also learns how long each shot took. Too fast and it goes finer, too slow and it goes coarser.
- Stays dialled in through service
- Any machine, with the Sync Scale
Models: E65W GbS, E80W GbS

Questions, answered
Timed, Grind-by-Weight or Grind-by-Sync: what is the difference?
Timed grinders run for a set time. The dose can drift as beans age or you change the grind. Grind-by-Weight weighs the coffee as it grinds and stops at your exact dose, for example 18.0 g. Grind-by-Sync also weighs every dose, then uses the time of each shot to fine-tune its own grind, so shots stay on recipe without constant dialling in.
Do I need a special espresso machine for Grind-by-Sync?
No. The Mahlkönig Sync Scale sits on your drip tray, times each shot and sends it to the grinder, so it works with any espresso machine. Some La Marzocco and Sanremo machines can also connect to the grinder directly.
E65S or E80S: which one suits my café?
The E65S has 65 mm burrs, grinds 4 to 7 g a second and is made for coffee shops and restaurants. The E80S has 80 mm cast steel burrs, grinds 6 to 7 g a second and is built for high daily volume, with burrs that last about 2,500 kg against about 800 kg. Not sure? Ask us and we will help you choose.
Which PUQ Press fits my grinder?
The PUQ Press M3 fits under E65 grinders and the M5 fits under E80 grinders. Pick the basket size that matches your espresso machine portafilter. The builder only shows the PUQ Press that fits the grinder you chose.
Which tamper size do I need for the PUQ Press?
Match the basket in your espresso machine portafilter. Our tamper size chart lists common machines, or tell us your machine and we will confirm it.
How does the price match work?
Send us the link to a lower advertised price for the same new model from another Australian retailer. We will check it and match it. Use the form below or call us.
Can I spread the cost?
Yes. Compare weekly rental, rent-try-buy and lease-to-own options on our finance page.
How long do the burrs last?
Mahlkönig quotes about 800 kg of coffee for E65 burrs, about 2,500 kg for E80 cast steel burrs and about 6,000 kg for EK43 burrs. Add a spare set in the builder so a burr change never stops service.
Do you deliver Australia-wide?
Yes. We deliver Australia-wide, and you can also pick up from our showroom in Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast.
