Once you have those elements sorted (and that will take less time to do than it did for you to read those short paragraphs), all you need to do is press the ‘Grind’ button. If you’re serious about espresso, it’s not an ideal grinder. However, if you want to have an occasional shot, it will probably work for you. I have had the grinder for about two months now, so I thought it’s about time to share my impression with you guys. Pros What are the main differences between the Wilfa Svart Aroma Coffee Grinder and the Wilfa Uniform Grinder? Is it a big investment? Yes, it is. But I genuinely believe you won’t regret buying this machine – you will find your coffee tastes better and you will get a lot of enjoyment playing around with the different settings to find your perfect cup of coffee.

The Svart Uniform is indeed capable of grinding uniform. I usually like a 1:15 brew ratio for pour over methods such as Hario and Kalita Wave, but with this model, I have to use less coffee.

This beauty comes with 5 different grind settings and has an adjustable timer function putting all the mighty grind power in your hands. It’s also quieter than the silver model, so if you are averse to the sound of coffee beans being whizzed up and ground down in the morning, this quiet comrade could be for you. A UV-protected coffee hopper and tray keeps the grind fresh for longer.

Motor: We don’t list the motor RPM as although it is an important factor when buying a grinder it is often misused in marketing. One would think that a higher RPM is a good thing (Many commercial grinders spin at around 1450 RPM).

What our customers say

Tim Wendelboe and the Norwegian homeware company Wilfa have once again joined forces. This time to create the ultimate home grinder. The filter basket easily snaps into the filter anchor and sits under the water tower. While Wilfa suggests you use #4 paper filters from Ladera, any #4 cone-shaped filter, such as the standard Melitta filters, will work just fine.

It doesn’t make it a worse grinder that it’s there, it’s just a puzzling inclusion in an otherwise minimalist product. You can’t help wondering how much cheaper the grinder would have been with a regular lid. Please note, it does not grind fine enough for espresso and is suitable for all immersion and filter brew methods. Benefits of the Wilfa Svart Coffee Grinder:
