Legendary Power and Consistency

The Mahlkönig EK43 has earned its reputation as the king of coffee grinders—and for good reason. Powered by massive 98mm flat burrs and a rock-solid motor, the EK43 delivers unmatched grind consistency across any setting, from espresso and pour-over to batch brew and cold brew. Its grinding speed is elite, capable of processing over three pounds of coffee per minute without overheating. Whether you're running a high-volume café, grinding retail bags, or dialing in small-batch samples, the EK43’s uniform particle distribution ensures flavor clarity, improved extraction, and unbeatable efficiency.

Built for Versatility Across Brewing Styles

This grinder isn’t just fast—it’s a true jack-of-all-trades. With stepless grind adjustment and a wide range that includes Turkish, espresso, drip, and cold brew, the EK43 adapts to any brewing method with precision. Roasters love it for its consistency during sample grinding, while specialty cafés rely on it as an all-purpose retail grinder. It even handles non-coffee applications with ease—grinding spices, grains, or seeds in restaurant kitchens that demand more from their equipment. This versatility makes the EK43 a one-stop solution for any business serious about flavor and performance.

Designed for Efficiency and Ease of Use

From top to bottom, the EK43 is built with workflow in mind. A built-in bag clamp allows hands-free grinding—freeing up baristas to multitask during rushes. A knock-off device ensures grounds don’t linger in the chute, keeping dose accuracy high and minimizing waste. Swapping coffee types is easy with a lockable hopper, and the magnetic safety feature protects the burrs from accidental damage. Whether you’re grinding a single bag or running non-stop all day, the EK43 stays cool, quiet, and reliable.

Engineered to Preserve Flavor

One of the EK43’s standout traits is how well it protects the integrity of your coffee. Cool grinding temperatures and superior burr geometry help retain delicate aromatics and reduce the risk of harsh or bitter flavors. Its fluffy, low-static grounds promote even extraction and make it easier to hit your target flavor notes. Simply put, if you're chasing clarity, body, and balance in the cup, the EK43 delivers—shot after shot, brew after brew.

A Global Icon in the Coffee World

With its distinctive silhouette and cult-like status among baristas, the EK43 isn’t just a grinder—it’s a symbol of quality. Mahlkönig’s decades-long legacy of German engineering shines through in every component, offering industry-leading durability and performance. From roasteries and coffee labs to the busiest cafés on the planet, the EK43 remains the benchmark for retail and multipurpose grinding. If you’re ready to elevate your coffee program to world-class levels, the EK43 is the grinder that professionals trust.
