Wilfa CD Automatic Electric Coffee Grinder Svart CGWS-130B, Black

Product Information

Kaffetrakter best i test av TV2 hjelper deg som lar deg brygge kaffe i verdensklasse. Sitat fra en av dommerne i testen: — Den er så klart mye bedre enn alt annet vi har smakt i dag. Either grind your beans or use pre-ground coffee and fill your filter basket with the suggested amount of coffee grounds. Snap the filter basket in place and adjust the flow controller to the corresponding rate. Then simply press the soft touch button to start brewing. All the machine’s components are neatly housed in the base, giving the machine a compact footprint. The base measures 34 x 17 centimeters and, fully assembled with the water tank and filter, the machine stands 34 centimeters tall and weighs 3.6 kilograms. I found the Wilfa Performance very easy to use, even on my first batch. Turn the machine on with the power switch on the side of the base – you can leave this on if you’d prefer. Then fill the water tank with your desired amount of water. Among potential competitors, you’ll find the electricBaratza Virtuoso and premium handgrinders such as Comandante C40, Lido 3 and Helor 101.

Your coffee will taste bitter and over extracted if you hand grind your coffee too fine for your required brew method. The brewer also has a stepped flow controller – allowing you to do automatic hands-off brewing, or get more involved with a steep and release brew. There are 5 settings marked on to help guide you, from the larger grind like french press, all the way through to the finer grinds like espresso. Obviously, as the container rotates around, you don’t have to settle for one of these five sizes, you can go in between to get your preferred grain size. Once you have those elements sorted (and that will take less time to do than it did for you to read those short paragraphs), all you need to do is press the ‘Grind’ button.

How to Brew

Lardera Roasters, now the sole importer of Wilfa products in North America, has partnered with Wilfa to bring the Performance Brewer to the US. When inspecting the grounds visually, the difference between this model and high-end hand grinders such as the Lido 3 and Helor 101 isn’t striking. My impression is that the amount of fines is roughly the same. The real difference is when it comes to boulders (the bigger particles). The Wilfa grinder, due to its flat and bigger burrs, produce fewer. Motor: We don’t list the motor RPM as although it is an important factor when buying a grinder it is often misused in marketing. One would think that a higher RPM is a good thing (Many commercial grinders spin at around 1450 RPM). The metal grounds bin exemplifies the solidity. On the scale, it weighs in at 400 grams, which alone is more substantial than the Porlex mini grinder! However, if you own the likes of a Helor 101 or Comandante (and don’t mind using your biceps) it makes less sense to upgrade.

SVART Precision er ikke bare en ny kaffetrakter – det er kaffetrakteren tenkt på nytt, som brygger den perfekte kaffen. Perfekt temperatur Overall the coffee will taste crap, unless you’re buying crap beans then the coffee will taste crap anyway. I think the Wilfa Performance is a beautiful-looking brewer. It’s a very modern design that will surely impress house guests and look great in your kitchen. If you want a more traditional look, this might not be for you, but if you’re a coffee nerd looking for something different, you’ll appreciate this machine. Cons Hot PlateWhen you grind coffee it instantly starts to deteriorate in quality, the air reacts with compounds and oils in the grounds and the coffee starts to oxidise changing the delicate balance of flavour notes.

You can make delicious coffee with either of them, and they’ll likely highlight different aspects of the coffee.

What our customers say

I did notice that when I only brewed 8 ounces in the machine without any steep and release, the coffee wasn’t as well extracted as when I would make a 16-ounce or larger pot. But as long as you’re making 16 ounces or more, you can brew an excellent-tasting pot of coffee completely hands-free. Easy to Use and Measurement Focused Before I get into what it can do, I need to mention what it looks like – largely because I don’t think this looks like a coffee grinder…
