Why this coffee grinder earns its place
The Santos 04 is the classic kind of shop grinder: sturdy, straightforward and built around the ritual of grinding coffee fresh for the customer. It suits shops, supermarkets, coffee roasters and bakeries where whole beans are sold by the bag and staff need a dependable way to grind them to order.
The grinder dispenses directly into the bag, so coffee does not sit forgotten in a chute between customers. The bag holder keeps the bag tightly held for hands-free use, which makes the process cleaner and easier at the counter. Santos also includes an anti-static system, a useful detail when ground coffee needs to land neatly where it should.
Grind control is wide rather than narrow. The adjustment runs from extra fine to extra coarse, with Santos giving examples from Turkish and espresso through to filter and French press. That makes the Santos 04 a practical grinder for retailers who serve customers using several brewing methods rather than one fixed house style.
