I'm glad Daddy Hoff highlighted sound, it's a big deal for me. In a small house and my daughter has some sensory issues around loud sounds. Plus I don't want to wake up the house if I make a cup early. I use a 1zpresso for that reason, but I appreciated he included sound comparisons. I get that many people don't have those issues, so I understand why it isn't highlighted in other reviews.
Agreed. I started with a blade grinder that was ridiculously loud, and it taught me that I absolutely do not want to have to tolerate such a racket early in the morning (or even in the evening if I make some dessert coffee). My 1ZPresso Q2 is great for me but it's a little small for making bigger batches, so I'm still thinking of adding another grinder. Maybe I should get something like an Ode 2 secondhand and give it a few runs; if I don't like it, I could resell it for little to no loss.
Please, when you do the ‘54, please, please, please talk about how ANY alternative burrs taste (and cost) and what burrs are available, or will/ could be available. Potential burr upgradability is a factor in my decision to either buy the ‘54, or save more for a 64mm grinder. If I can be 90% happy with a 54 with other burrs vs say the 064S at half the price, I’ll get the ‘54. If, a 64mm grinder is very noticeably better, I’ll save up an buy the more expensive grinder. If you can give the ‘54 a letter grade to match your previous mass comparison, even better.
@ I did. But my understanding of Eurika’s burrs is that they’re more of a “traditional,” medium through dark roast kind of thing. I’m looking to get the most of the light roasts I prefer. And not just for espresso.
I did it the other way round and watched at 0.75x to balance everything back out again -- that way James was at ~normal speed (actually 1.125x?) while Lance was the slow one. 😅

Nice comments by papa Lance! Have DF54. It was my first grinder. Works perfect. After 6 months using it hits upgraditis and want to experiment with burrs. Bought DF64 and SSP HU burrs. To compare both I like DF54 workflow more. It has more silent motor, better indicator with prolonged graduation for each 5 steps, fantastic plastic see through dosing cup and it is more compact and cleaner. On other side DF64 is faster and of course aftermarket burrs do they job. But for money DF54 is a killer grinder. P.S. daddy Hoff has older version of DF54 with plastic switch in this video and no rubber 45 degree catch cup angler. So it might be one of the first iterations of this grider. You should take it to consideration I think P.S.2 for Lance I would like to see video about DF54 burrs selection and motor rewire to go to other side as a lot of 54mm burrs are designed to spin in other direction than DF54 grinder spins. Some hardcore shit on this cheap grinder as Gaggia with gaguino mods. Who knows, how it goes 😁
“Hoffman did a review, so now that saves you 30 minutes of lance doing the reviews.” This video is an hour long… It added an extra 30 to get the same information 😂 Love the video 👍
1.5 was a little to much but definitely bearable. was fun to watch james video knowing almost all that info from previous your videos) interisting how would you rate cups from kingrinder K4 and K6 in comparison to these 5 electric grinders.
I think on value proposition alone, the df54 is the best. all the other grinders try to market themselves in the $200 area but are really lacking in the quality of build materials compared to the giant hunk of metal that is the df54. The opus is $195 (which I think is an absurd price based on my personal experience using one) and the df54 is $230. for $30 more I think you're getting something that is really leaps and bounds ahead in terms of build quality and access to the flat burr
I would suggest another selection, about the same price or even cheaper : "used small commercial "in a bag" coffee grinders ". Like Fiorenzato F4 or Macap MC4. When I worked in the last coffee shop we had a similar grinder and it is essentially a DF, only a little bigger and more reliable. By the way, the bellows from the DF fit perfectly. You people in the first world love shiny things, but in the rest of the world we value value. Wow, what a tautology. So we're rummaging around flea markets. Here you can meet a professional photographer whose only equipment "bought new in the store" is AA batteries for the flash. And coffee lovers are like that too. And even those who are richer often buy 40 years old Mahlkonig Guatemala for home, and not something from your reviews.

This - was a treat! Im very glad I bought the DF54 recently. I had picked up a Opus, but dang - it just felt sooooo cheap. The DF54 feels...amazing! Of course, like you guys both say - its a bit of a messy grinder. 😂
I just upgraded from the Smart Grinder Pro which I’ve had for 10 years to the df83v. Biggest problem with the Smart Grinder was consistency. I could occasionally get out super chocolatey espressos but it was hard to replicate and would more often than not come out too sour or bitter to drink in anything but a latte. The DF, of course, has been much more consistent and with the flat burrs, I can now taste the lemongrass when the tasting notes say lemongrass on the bean.
Start watching at 9:19 for everyone joining late. (There were some technical difficulties at the start and once they were resolved Lance restarted the video) I'm really loving these live videos even if I can't join when they go live! 😁
RE the VS-3. It is possible and understandable that James May have felt he should "test as shipped". This is technically fair. However it is unfortunate that Varia shipped a unit where the grease on the dial had "apparently" dried up. Because, if you do add food grade grease to the grind dial threads the vibration from the grind no longer moves the dial at all. If however it does move even a tick during a grind the results are far worse IMO. So while the criticism is valid and Varia should fix this in a more meaningful way , This grinder in optimal conditions is capable of outperforming the DF54 (which has its own issues) Furthermore add the Hypernova Ultra burs and it reaches even higher. The VS-3 is a very good grinder that needs iteration to be truly great without user care and maintenance. My point is simply the audience here have the nerd knowhow to buy some food grade grease and be patient. For those who don't the DF54 would be a better match! (except if it jams doh!). There ya go Lance, flame on! Cheers
Do the Ditting burrs really fit? They maybe can be screwed in the attachment but aren't they cutted for grinders running in the opposite direction than the Df54, are they? That would be a nice aspect for your upcoming DF54 review!
Search for Baratza Vario or Forte steel burrs. They are an excellent all-around burr set with more clarity than the stock DF burrs. I'm a little confused though, as they appear to spin in the opposite direction.
I have the df54. Contemplating the Ditting burrs with what Lance just said. I've never switched out burrs before. It looks like Ditting has 54mm burrs in "special steel" and "ceramic".. thoughts? opinions?
The steel burrs are the set Lance is referring to. I would wait for his review. The burrs appear to be designed to spin in the opposite direction from the DF stock burrs. I'm not sure if he's modded his grinder...
50mm flat burrs, sounds decent, don't think you need an upgrade, just spend more money on good beans :D I'd upgrade a water setup sooner than the grinder (if you haven't already)
Is it even possible to do espresso, drink and french press with one grinder ? Many apartment kitchen spaces are small. Grinder juggling is not a fun thing.
Sugestion for your DF54 review. Trying 54 burrs from baratza (ditting) X54. You might need to change the orientation of rotation but you have electric skills.
Was just watching one of your Q&As from 10mnths back, and got me wondering... were you able to donate your streaming tresses to a humanitarian organization when you clipped?
Lance, if you are doing a review of df54 please include star seeker E55/Edge as well. It looks like almost same price point and may be fixing few of the issues with DF.
Hmmmm... Well I watched James' video & I do own the df54. I didn't need reinforcement from J or L as I've been happy with my purchase. I am nonetheless interested in the upcoming DF54 video here, and your thoughts on the 'upgraded' burrs you tested. 🤔 However, I suspect that when I feel I'm ready to upgrade the DF54, they'll be some other offering that will make a suitable upgrade. Cheers. ☕☕☕
To be fair, he had 5 grinders. He rated it in the middle- better than Smart grinder and varia. Inferior to df54 and baratza (due to changing grind size). What's the third letter of the alphabet.... Hahaha!
Interesting that you agree with Hoffman on the Varia, because I really enjoy your videos and watched I think all of them regarding the varia (example: ruclips.net/video/1CBhJ3G1mI4/видео.htmlsi=oCZ8yE1Gt6kLFXNI) and muddiness or lack of acidity and clarity was never anything that I remember you mentioned. Maybe I missed something. I was actually surprised by Hoffman's perspective on the Varia. I had the Varia with the hypernova Ultra-S burrs for a while, and although I am by no means an expert, quite the contrary, and although it does not seem to have insane clarity and acidity compared to a flat burr like the mazzer philos i200d, it had a very well balanced profile. So not sure If the default burrs really lack acidity and clarity, but that did not pop up in your reviews from the past neither from other RUclipsrs. So it was really a surprise to me, since lots of people in the past has mentioned that the low rpm produced a really interesting combo between a flat and a conical profile.
Good point! Yes. To be fair, I used the varia long after the video and perhaps my thoughts just changed. I'll need to watch what I said and the context. I do say in this video i think the varia has better filter than espresso. But I always felt the espresso was muddy. I do think it has acidity but it is very muddy. I would say James was a bit more intense about it than I would be but I always love and get maybe too giddy when James gets like that about something lol In short: acidity in espresso many like but def muddy. Imbalanced compared to the others. But def has acidity popping out. In filter it is much better. More on par imo with opus and encore.
I'm a noob and have only used it for espresso, but I really like it so far. Solid build, low retention, quiet (ish) and it handles the lighter roasted Ethiopian and Tanzanian coffees that I favor. It's got a lot in common with the 1zpresso Xultra I was using, minus the arthritis.
Hey Lance! Great video, as usual! Let me ask you a question... Do you believe a DF64 gen 2 or a Timemore Sculptor (either the 64s or the 78s, since I'd be more focused on espresso) would make a valid upgrade from a Breville? If so, which one would you go for? Either one would represent a considerable investment here in Brazil, due to the astronomical shipping and import taxes...
I don't generally like this kind of videos (I call them parasitic), when one just comments someone else's, however here it does make sense, you both being recognized authorities in the area. Couple remarks though: 1.5× is simply too fast, especially for non-native English listeners. Putting yourself over results-graphs etc.-is silly, you have three other corners. Your videos are way too quiet, I have to turn the sound all the way up and still it is barely acceptable; if I switch from your video to the original James's one, the difference in sound volume is extreme. Still, thanks for the video and for your input. Greetings from Prague, Czechia.
Definitely things to work on. I'm by myself when doing these and I don't know if my face is over a graph- or at least don't think of it. Good feedback!
I should do a video on this video reacting to your your reaction of the original video so someone else can do a video on my reaction of your reaction of the original video. Great way to steal viewers from other people’s original content.
I'm sure this kind of live reaction / watch party is easier to produce, but please make your own video with borrowed clips instead so we don't have to rewatch what was already a long video. We came here to watch you, not Hoffman at x1.25 ;)
I understand but I wouldn't have time to do that. If this was my full time job, maybe. But I work a full time job and have kids and do the main channel and consult for companies lol! I appreciate the kindness though!!
Think it's fine... It's the unfiltered channel, it's never been short 😂. Also, I don't know how the hell you've even managed one YT video with a FT job and kids!
How much of an upgrade are the ditting burrs for DF54? Or is it something worth considering to get after a few years of worn out stock burrs? Edit: just read some comments mentioning a review sometime soon? Glad people are interested as well 🫡

I should do a video on this video reacting to your your reaction of the original video so someone else can do a video on my reaction of your reaction of the original video. Great way to steal viewers from other people’s original content.
"Scheiße"
I always speed your voice up because you tend to go on a lot of tangents.
Our Lord and Savior - Amen! 😅
Content begets content
Need to continue the trend to get real meta
@LanceHedrickUnfiltered We need Hoon to make a reaction to your reaction video
The random bursts of singing is REALLY annoying.
My channel isn't for you then
I'm sure this kind of live reaction / watch party is easier to produce, but please make your own video with borrowed clips instead so we don't have to rewatch what was already a long video. We came here to watch you, not Hoffman at x1.25 ;)
I understand but I wouldn't have time to do that. If this was my full time job, maybe. But I work a full time job and have kids and do the main channel and consult for companies lol!
I appreciate the kindness though!!
Think it's fine... It's the unfiltered channel, it's never been short 😂. Also, I don't know how the hell you've even managed one YT video with a FT job and kids!
I had to stop in the middle. What I got out of this, more than anything else, is that Lance doesn't like James. I don't care about that.
Genuinely dont understand how you took that from this video?
I don't like James? what?! that's wild. I am good friends with James. very weird take away
Hey, @LanceHedrickUnfiltered, Would you change/upgrade from Fellow Opus to DF54? Is it worth it for a better-tasting cup of espresso? Cheers!
Big Daddy Hoff
How much of an upgrade are the ditting burrs for DF54? Or is it something worth considering to get after a few years of worn out stock burrs?
Edit: just read some comments mentioning a review sometime soon? Glad people are interested as well 🫡
Watching Lance speed up to 1.25 as I’m watching in 1.75 on an already meta video… 🤌🏻
Nice format and nice « indirect » collab (I guess James Hoffmann gave his consent and I see that positively)
