Burr grinder Rommelsbacher EKM 500

The Rommelsbacher EKM 500 burr grinder delivers consistent, adjustable coffee grinding in a compact appliance. Equipped with a durable burr mechanism and an LED display, this grinder accepts up to 400 g of coffee beans and operates at 230 V AC. Its combination of black and stainless steel finishes fits modern kitchens while the precise grinding system supports a range of brewing methods from espresso to filter coffee.

Advantages

The burr grinding mechanism provides an even particle size distribution for stable extraction. The 400 g bean hopper reduces the need for frequent refilling and the LED display simplifies setting grind time and coarseness. The compact footprint (138 mm width, 225 mm depth, 345 mm height) makes the unit suitable for limited counter space, and the stainless steel components contribute to long-term durability and easy cleaning.

Suitable for

• Home espresso preparation requiring fine, consistent grind
• Filter coffee and pour-over methods needing medium grind sizes
• French press or cold brew where coarser grind is preferred
• Small households or offices that require a compact grinder

How to use

Place the Rommelsbacher EKM 500 on a stable, level surface and plug into a 230 V AC outlet. Fill the hopper with coffee beans up to the indicated capacity (400 g). Use the LED display to select the desired grind coarseness and set the grinding time or portion. Press the start control to begin grinding; the burr system will produce a consistent particle size. After use, switch off and unplug the grinder before cleaning. Empty the grounds container and wipe external surfaces with a damp cloth; follow the manufacturer manual for any removable parts or detailed maintenance instructions.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use fresh, dry coffee beans and adjust the grind setting according to your brewing method. Clean the hopper and grounds container regularly to avoid oil buildup. If switching between very different grind sizes, grind a small amount of beans to purge the burrs before preparing your final dose.
