*Burr lifespan depends on coffee type and roasting style, with dense light roasts providing a greater degree of grinding resistance than darker varieties.
*The Weight Adjustment Module (WAM) is featured in the Rev Series and can be mounted in under two minutes, even post grinder installation.
*Ceado's "Sweep Out" System is a patented innovation which achieves near-zero retention. After every cycle, the motor reverses and the burrs spin in the opposite direction, clearing residual coffee grounds while keeping every dose fresh.
Why Ceado Grinders?
Renowned across the world for their professional-grade Italian engineering, Ceado grinders are robustly designed to be with you for the long haul. What clearly sets Ceado apart, however, is in their grinders' versatility.

Lastly, every step is tracked and controlled to guarantee coffee’s best flavours are not only achievable, but repeatable.
Note: While professional-grade, Ceado Grinders are made to be used by anyone; they offer a seamless workflow and easy-to-clean design that makes daily maintenance absolutely effortless. Even for baristas in training.
