Description
The Home Espresso Grinder for Rich, Balanced Flavor
The Mahlkönig E64 WS brings professional café grinding technology into your home — without the commercial footprint. Equipped with Mahlkönig's Grind-by-Weight and Grind-by-Sync technologies, the E64 WS measures every dose to 0.1 gram accuracy and can automatically sync grind size with compatible espresso machines in real time.
This isn't just a grinder. It's a smart, connected espresso tool engineered for home baristas who want repeatable results, minimal waste, and a setup that actually keeps up with their craft.
Precision Engineering Meets Smart Connectivity
Grind-by-Weight Technology: The built-in scale weighs your dose down to 0.1 gram as it grinds, stopping automatically when your target is hit. No guessing. No over or under-dosing. Every shot starts from the same foundation.
Grind-by-Sync Capability: Pair the E64 WS with a compatible Mahlkönig espresso machine or the Mahlkönig Sync Scale, and the grinder automatically adjusts its grind size based on real-time extraction data from your machine. Shot running too fast or slow? The grinder corrects itself. It's the closest thing to a self-dialing espresso setup available for the home.
Patented Disc Distance Detection (DDD): Borrowed directly from Mahlkönig's professional commercial grinders, DDD uses an electronic sensor motor to track and adjust burr position in microns. Grind size is set and returned to with machine precision — not by feel.
Easy Zero Burr Calibration: When you install new burrs or do a deep clean, zeroing the grinder takes moments and no tools. Follow the on-screen guide and you're back up and running.

About Mahlkönig
Founded in Hamburg in 1924, Mahlkönig has spent a century defining precision coffee grinding. Their grinders are the standard in the world's most respected specialty coffee bars — and the E64 WS is the first time Mahlkönig has brought their professional Grind-by-Weight and Grind-by-Sync technologies fully into a home-focused grinder. Built in Germany, engineered for consistency, and designed to grow with you as a home barista.
Frequently Asked Questions
What type of coffee drinker will get the most out of the E64 WS? The E64 WS is built for espresso drinkers who want café-level precision without commercial equipment. It's ideal if you pull multiple shots daily and value consistency, speed, and a setup that adapts to your beans automatically. Grind-by-Weight dosing and electronic micron-level adjustment give you the ability to fine-tune extraction effortlessly — shot after shot.
Is the E64 WS a smart grinder? Yes. It integrates Grind-by-Weight and Grind-by-Sync technologies, connects via Wi-Fi to the Mahlkönig Sync App, and can automatically adjust grind size based on real-time extraction data from compatible machines. Software updates are pushed automatically through the app. It's one of the most technologically advanced home espresso grinders currently available.
How does Grind-by-Sync work? When paired with a compatible espresso machine or the Mahlkönig Sync Scale, the grinder receives extraction data — shot time and weight — and automatically adjusts burr distance to keep your shots dialing in correctly. If your shot runs too fast or too slow, the grinder self-corrects for the next dose.
What is Disc Distance Detection (DDD)? DDD is Mahlkönig's patented electronic burr positioning system, used in their professional commercial grinders and now available in the E64 WS. A sensor-controlled motor tracks and sets burr distance in microns, replacing manual collar adjustments with precise, repeatable electronic control.
How is the E64 WS different from the Mahlkönig X54? The X54 uses a manual stepless collar adjustment and 54mm burrs, making it a great allround home grinder for espresso through filter. The E64 WS is purpose-built for espresso with larger 64mm burrs, electronic DDD grind adjustment, a built-in scale for Grind-by-Weight dosing, and Grind-by-Sync connectivity. It's the choice for home baristas who want the most sophisticated espresso grinding setup available at this price point.
What espresso machines does the E64 WS pair well with? The E64 WS pairs beautifully with any prosumer espresso machine in our lineup, including the Lelit Mara X, Breville Dual Boiler, Ascaso Steel Duo, and Fiorenzato machines. For Grind-by-Sync auto-adjustment, it works with Mahlkönig Sync-compatible machines and the Mahlkönig Sync Scale.
Is the E64 WS suitable for brewing methods other than espresso? It can cover the full range, but it's purpose-optimized for espresso. If you frequently switch between espresso and filter brewing, the Mahlkönig X54 or X64 SD may be a better fit. The E64 WS is for those who are serious about espresso first.
How do I maintain the E64 WS? Monthly burr brushing and weekly exterior wipe-down is sufficient for most home users. Use grinder cleaning tablets every 2–3 months for oily dark roasts. Zero calibration is tool-free and guided on-screen. The low-retention design keeps buildup minimal between sessions.
Does the E64 WS come with a warranty? Yes — every E64 WS purchased through Everyday People Coffee & Tea includes a 1-year parts warranty. Note that this warranty applies to home use only; commercial use voids coverage.
