Mahlkonig Guatemala Shop Grinder
Mahlkönig Guatemala (New Model): The Ultimate Shop & Retail Grinder
The industry's most trusted shop grinder has been reborn. Mahlkönig has officially relaunched the iconic Guatemala, completely redesigning it from the ground up for the modern specialty coffee business. This new model takes the classic speed and reliability its reputation was built on and elevates it with a stunning all-metal body, new high-performance burrs, and a smarter, more user-friendly workflow.
This is the new workhorse for any business needing world-class, on-demand grinding for retail bags, batch brew, or professional cupping.
Key Upgrades & Features
A Modern Redesign in Solid Aluminum The most striking update is the new, contoured body. Gone is the previous plastic shell, replaced by a robust, single-piece molded aluminum chassis finished in a sleek, durable matte black. This premium build isn't just for looks; it's designed for stability and improved serviceability, with easier access from the back panel for maintenance.
New Burrs for High-Speed, Low-Retention Grinding At the heart of the new Guatemala are newly developed 71mm flat burrs, 100% made in Germany from high-quality steel. These burrs are mounted vertically, a design that ensures exceptionally low grind retention and a clean, "almost residue-free" grinding path. Powered by a high-speed motor running at 2900 RPM, this grinder is built for pure efficiency, capable of grinding an impressive 800-900 grams per minute—perfect for bagging retail coffee with no waiting.
Larger Hopper & Smarter Workflow The new model features a larger 2-pound (900g) bean hopper, holding 45% more coffee than the previous version to keep up with your busiest days. The workflow is cleaner and more intuitive than ever:
- Bag Clamp & Knocker: A sturdy spout features an integrated metal knocker and a secure bag clamp, allowing for hands-free operation when filling retail bags.
- Adjustable Tray: A height-adjustable and fully removable metal tray provides a flexible platform for different-sized bags or brewing containers.
- Clear Grind Settings: The new front-facing control panel features updated pictograms and clear, labeled grind setting recommendations for a full range of methods: Espresso, Aeropress, V60, Filter Brewing, Chemex, Batch Brew, French Press, and Cold Brew.
This Grinder is the Ideal Solution For:
- Roasteries: For bagging retail coffee quickly and cleanly.
- Coffee Shops: The perfect dedicated grinder for your daily batch brew.
- Cupping Labs: Provides the consistency and low-retention needed for professional analysis.
- Restaurants & Bakeries: A reliable, high-quality grinder that's simple for all staff to use.
