Hi,
I'm Pedro from Coffee Parts
And today,
we're looking at Fiorenzato's top of the range grinders.
The F 83 E's
What makes these drives a little bit different to other grinders
is the screen.
Through the control will see
you can really dive in quite deeply
so looking to the menu
you got your single and double and in this case on this grinder
you're adjusting it by time
Now you can have it
so single double and triple if you want to have three different volumes
and you can have it show the time on each of these.
Plus you can have it showing statistics on the top right hand corner.
To do that, just go into the menu
and you can set whether you want to
show grind times.
We can turn that on,
whether you want to show statistics and we got manual grind turning on to
and where do you want to show your triple dose, which we can turn on as well.
So now you can see the three doses, you can see the times, 2 seconds, four
and 6 seconds on the each
You've also got grind on demand
So just by pressing that, you can turn that off
and you got the statistics up here.
Now you can have the statistics on or off.
It might be that you don't want people in the cafe knowing
just how many coffees are being done a day, or you can make it.
So you do want to see, you know, maybe to encourage them or this
so you can get a bit more of a feel for what's going on.
Going back in
You've also got the usual things which is like.
Your display brightness,
your contrast, like light and dark mode, time, date, language, etc.
going back.
And if you go back into that menu again, another thing you got
is your grinding mode.
So with the grinding mode, when you dive into it, what you can do is
you can have it.
So when you press a single grind, single, when you press a double,
it grinds double.
Or you could change that.
So when you press one of those buttons single double,
then when the portafilter hits that it activates whatever last button you press
or you can have it.
So it's actually the switch that activates it.
So when you push in your Portafilter once was single, give it two little pushes
for double, or you can have it completely manual,
completely up to you, which is really cool.
That gives you the option to really work in whichever way you want to work.
Now that's on this grinder, which is grind by time
on this grinder here
Is exactly the same, but you're now grinding by weight.
And one thing Fiorenzato have done differently is effectively
Effectively they are not weighing the portafilter
and trying to tare and then work out how much coffee has gone into it.
What they've done is when you're actually putting the portafilter
in that portafilter, it's actually mounted to the base.
What they're weighing is actual everything from here on up.
So the scale and the coffee in the hopper effectively when you grind the coffee
in the hopper is going down and going to end up in your portafilter.
And what it's doing is it's weighing the whole unit.
And when it reduces by 20 grams or whatever
grams, you've set it up, it's stopping the grinder.
Now for this to work, there's a couple of things that have to happen.
The grinder needs to be on a level flat bench, so just say you're
on a really busy main road with a lot of vibrations.
It might not be the grinder for you when a really busy outdoor cafe that's
windy could also not be the grinder for the wind can throw it off a little bit.
But if you're not a solid bench, stable environment,
it really is cool because it's quicker to activate.
And what it does
is at the end of every shot, it actually tells you what the weight was just saying.
You wanted 20 grams of ground, 20.5 grams, it will tell you.
And every so often, if it is a bit raw, it will go through and recalibrate itself
on this side here, if there is movement, as this tries to shake the bench,
it will get two little arrows there.
And what it's showing is there's a bit of movement, so it's not completely stable.
If those two areas are not there, it's showing you
that the environment is stable.
Now, we've stopped moving it will take a little bit of time
to just reset itself is now or has gone away
now it's back to being stable when those arrows over it means,
There is windy or vibration on your bench or something like that
and the grinder still works, but it's not as optimum performance.
The other thing you'll notice is
you got your weight So 20 grams on the bottom but on the top,
you have the weight of the last shot, the actual weight.
In this case, it's showing quite a low weight because before this
video we've dialing it, we actually ran out of coffee
and every so often if you get the little blue indicators here
It is recalibrating
This normally happens if you have to say change your weight
on your coffee, you've gone from 20 grams and you dialing in a bigger weight.
So to change the weight. It's super easy.
Just like on the timer model, you just press here on a double.
It's going to bring it down to 19.
We press home again.
We're on high one 19.
So obviously the
first three coffees after this is going to grind in my overall undershoot.
It's going to learn and then be stable from there on in.
When that happens, it will show a blue marker on top.
So let's grind we're aiming for 19 would just set 19 in.
So in this case
it more than likely may overshoot because we've just changed the way.
So this one was 18.5, but this will probably be
one more learning.
So that was 19 spot on.
So it's showing you 19, seen green
It's ready to go.
We had it at 20 grams, we moved it to 19, it took three.
Found itself calibrated.
Because It's working out the weight
minus the weight going out, and it just learns that pretty quickly.
So the F83 uses a 1.5 kilo hopper, which is the same
as a whole range, same as F64 and F71.
Which is cool because if you want it to bank up
these grinders, at least, it keeps a look consistent.
You might have call
one for decaf, one for single origin, one for your main blend.
Dialing in this grinder, you just press a lock mechanism down here
and then you go counterclockwise for fine and clockwise for course.
It really is simple and it's steeples, so you can move it to the empt degree.
Now the cool thing about these grinders is Fiorenzato paired up
with another manufacturer called Puq who built electronic tampers
and effectively built a Puq that fits perfectly under the Fiorenzato range.
And what that means is you can now grind, in this case by time
and then go straight into your Puq and tamper correctly.
If you put the puck under the grind by way, then you really get that workflow.
If you're grinding perfectly, whatever gram it you want,
call it 20 grams, then tapping perfectly whatever way you want it.
20 kilos.
So you're putting your portafilter in this case by time
grind out and then tamp 20 kilos.
Or if you're here, you grind call it 20 grams and tamp out 20 kilos.
It does really make the workflow a lot easier
And is cool to see manufacturers
pair up and build products to give the end user a better experience
and do look well together.
Let me know in the comments below.
Do you have any questions on these grinders or any of the range,
or do you just own one and want to let me know you've got one?
We've also done a video on the rest of the range
The F64 Evo and the F71 EK
So if you wanted to look at those
other two grinders, you can jump in and look at those videos independently.
And we've done a video on the range
having all three on the table and just talking about the differences.
And like always, if this video brought you value hit that thumbs up.

Thank you and see you in the next video.
