A TRUSTED CLASSIC RE-ENGINEERED FOR ESPRESSO

The Baratza Encore is the ultimate entry-level grinder for your craft coffee journey and is an essential item for every home coffee drinker. With the Encore ESP, Baratza has re-engineered the industry classic to be espresso-optimized, making high-resolution grinding simple, repeatable, and approachable. It's another way Baratza is making specialty coffee accessible for all.

Straightforward controls make your daily routine simple and easy. Grind for espresso with settings 1-20, with high-resolution micro steps that make dialing-in espresso a breeze. Use settings 21-40, with macro steps to increase grind size quickly for a grind quality suitable for filter and immersion brew methods. Load up your hopper with your favorite beans, switch the Baratza Encore ESP on and let the precision conical M2 burrs deliver consistent, quality ground coffee every time.

Manufactured in Europe, the Encore ESP's 40mm conical M2 steel burrs will grind for many styles of coffee. Conical burr grinders are exceptional at producing consistent grinds from very fine to very coarse as well as being durable and will remain sharp for many years. With unique speed control, the Encore ESP uses a combination of gear and electronic speed reduction to control the rotation of the burr to 550 RPM. This slow speed reduces heat, noise, and static generation in the grinder. It also ensures that the beans feed smoothly into the burrs.

A good grind, but with a retention problem

Getting into espresso, I needed a capable grinder. The Encore ESP fit the bill, it's at a good price midpoint price and it does a damn good espresso grind.

It's also fantastic for filter or aeropress brews. A great all-rounder.

Unfortunately, Baratza no longer provide repairs or servicing so long term maintenance of the grinder is potentially a little rocky, but spare parts are available.

The only other problem this grinder has is a bit of a retention problem. It could benefit from a bellows-top. After you finish grinding, you will usually find that you have to gently tap the sides to get it to spit the rest of the grounds out. This means that you are very often left with coffee grounds on the counter top surrounding the grinder.

Overall though, this is the grinder to get if you plan to start your espresso journey. Definitely recommend.

Very good entry level grinder , got very good results .

Best bang for your buck

The baratza ESP encore has been one of the best purchases I’ve made in the world of coffee. The grind is very consistent and it’s easy to clean and maintain. My espresso quality has gotten much better since buying this grinder. I highly recommend it to anyone especially if you’re just getting into espressos.

Great grinder

Been using this for espresso along with the Breville Bambino. It's producing great results and is very easy to dial in espresso with.

Great, but a bit loud

A great grinder, but on the loud side. Really appreciate that Baratza makes replacement parts available, and that Eight Ounce carries them - not that I foresee needing them anytime soon.
