New Mahlkönig X64 SD
I just received this last night Build quality definitely looks sturdy, design wise yes it might cause a divisive opinion Several things that stand out is how quiet it is, I had Baratza Sette 270 and the noise difference is night and day

Need help [Rancilio Silvia V2]
I have a baratza sette 270. I wouldn't exactly recommend it - it is very noisy and the macro and micro settings have drifted since day one.

Baratza Sette 270: found a deal finally!
Had the Sette 270 for 2,5 years. It's as louad as a jet engine and your neighours will despise you. Get a bit of aluminum butyl insulation material to clad the plastic parts from the inside to dampen things a bit. Also, get a set of shims from Baratza, because the grind dial tends to loosen over tim

Grinder not grinding [Baratza Sette 270]
I also have an obnoxiously loud bean disposal (Sette 270) but have thankfully not encountered this issue yet. If you’ve confirmed all is well with the burr I agree this probably goes deeper (motor/gearing). I’d reach out to Baratza to see what they suggest. Also see if there are any coffee/espresso

Looking for light roast grinder for espresso and pour over [$1000]
There's no better solution than just just having 2 different grinders for true convenience, if you have the space and budget. I also came here to say, I used to have a Sette 270 a few years ago for a while, and god did I hate that thing. It was so LOUD it would wake up the entire house. And then whe

Buying Advice Needed: Why am I thinking of buying a new Baratza Vario Plus [$500]
Did you buy it? I've just been through this decision process at the same price point Almost pulled the trigger on a DF64 since that is a relatively hot 'new' thing, but in the end I just didn't want Chinese tech. I am buying Coffee gear to last decades and I just don't trust them to help service/mai

Sette 270 in 2026
I have the sette 30 with the 270 adjustment ring, its so loud its obnoxious especially the pitch is jarring. Otherwise it does the job, on a budget you either suffer baratzas noise in exchange for decent customer service and ability to repair or try your luck with the white labelled grinders

Timemore Sculptor 078S
The noise level is directly related to the RPM. A I'm running it at top RPM, I can't say it's "quiet" or "not loud" but it would be those (more so) if I ran it at 500 RPM or lower. When I compare it to my Eureka Silenzio, I'd say it's mmm as loud as that but with an extra component of a taste of a h

give up on affordable grinder? [Baratza Encore ESP, Sette 30]
If the hand grinder is working, I would stick with it for a while. My daughter has the sette 270 paired with a Rocket Apartmento. The 270 does its job well, but super loud, with a plastic gearbox that will go out eventually. To be fair, baratza technical support was great, they sent a new gearbox wi

New Sette 30 or Used Sette 270 [$230]
My daughter has the sette 270 paired with a Rocket Apartmento. The 270 does its job well, but super loud, with a plastic gearbox that will go out eventually. I’d say she makes 1 or 2 espresso per day and hers died around 3 years. .To be fair, baratza technical support was great, they sent a new gear
