Mahlkonig E80T Grind-by-Sync Espresso Grinder
Description
The Mahlkonig E80T Grind-by-Sync (GbS) is a high-volume, time-dosing commercial espresso grinder built for cafes that demand speed, precision, and consistency at scale. Powered by 80mm flat special steel burrs and Mahlkonig's patented Disc Distance Detection (DDD) system, it delivers micron-accurate burr control and up to 7-8 g/s output - keeping pace with the busiest peak-hour rushes. The Grind-by-Sync platform automatically recalibrates grind time whenever grind size changes, decoupling dose consistency from barista experience level and dramatically cutting staff training time.
What sets the E80T GbS apart is its Automatic Grind Size Adjustment (AGSA) feature, which uses dual sensors to achieve 0.001mm grind precision and zero-calibration in as little as 10 seconds - no tools required. Built-in portafilter detection, La Marzocco machine sync compatibility, and a mobile and desktop app for recipe management and diagnostics make this grinder the centerpiece of a truly automated espresso program. Designed for front-of-house use, it operates quietly and efficiently, allowing your team to focus on the customer experience no matter how long the line gets.

Manuals & Guides
FAQ
What does "Grind-by-Sync" mean and how does it work?
Grind-by-Sync is Mahlkonig's automation platform that keeps dose weight consistent even when you change grind size. Traditionally, adjusting grind fineness throws off the timed dose - baristas have to manually re-dial and waste coffee. With GbS, the grinder's algorithm automatically corrects the grind time to compensate, so your dose stays on target. It can also sync with compatible La Marzocco espresso machines to adjust grind parameters in real time based on your programmed recipe targets.
How is zero calibration different on the E80T GbS versus a traditional grinder?
On a traditional grinder, zeroing the burrs requires manual disassembly, adjustment tools, and can take 10 minutes or more - significant downtime during service. The E80T GbS reduces this to about 10 seconds with a few taps on the touchscreen display. No tools, no disassembly. This translates to over 98% faster calibration and virtually no service interruption.
Is the E80T GbS compatible with all espresso machines?
The E80T GbS works as a standard time-dosing grinder alongside any espresso machine. The Sync integration - where grind parameters are adjusted in real time based on recipe targets - is specifically compatible with select La Marzocco machines. For all other machines, you still get all of the GbS automation and precision features; you simply won't have the machine-to-grinder sync functionality.
How long do the burrs last and when should I replace them?
The 80mm flat special steel burrs in the E80T GbS have an estimated lifespan of approximately 1,500 kg of coffee. For a busy cafe grinding, say, 10 kg per day, that's roughly 150 days of heavy use. Burr replacement intervals will vary based on your volume and the type of beans you're grinding. Lighter roasts and denser beans can accelerate wear. The Sync app can help you track usage to plan preventive maintenance.
What is the Sync app and what can it do?
The Mahlkonig Sync app is available on both mobile and desktop platforms. It allows you to remotely manage grind recipes, monitor grinder performance, run diagnostics, and view analytics - all from your phone or computer. This is especially useful for multi-location operators or head roasters who want to push recipe updates across machines without being on-site.
What does the 12-month warranty cover?
The warranty covers defects in materials or workmanship for parts only - labor, installation, shipping, and on-site service are not included. Consumable components like burrs, belts, and seals are also excluded as normal wear items. All warranty claims must be authorized before any repair is attempted. The warranty applies to the original purchaser only and requires proper installation and use in a commercial environment per manufacturer guidelines.
