Baratza Sette 270Wi User Manual

CONICAL BURR GRINDER

Sette 270Wi

The Sette 270Wi introduces
two revolutionary design
innovations to espresso
grinders and enables
incredible functionality
for home users.

This machine is the rst – and currently the
only – espresso grinder offering grind-by­weight functionality directly into a portalter.
Precise, accurate dosing to within a few grams
(2- 3 beans!) directly into your portalter makes
quality, consistent espresso a breeze.

The mouthfeel and avor clarity of espresso
pulled on the Sette out-classes other home
espresso grinders. The multitude of features
offered by the Sette makes dialing in espresso
simple and hassle-free. Thirty steps of
macro-adjustment and a fully stepless micro­adjustment system gives the user a near­innite number of grind settings to allow for
the best, most precise dial-in on any Baratza
grinder. This allows room for even the most
attentive taster to explore delicate layers of
sweetness, acidity, and body for all types of
espresso from classic Italian dark roasts to
progressive light roasts. The Sette excels at ne
grinding up to and including small, single-cup
pour-overs.

The Sette features our radically redesigned
gearbox and burrset in which the outer ring
burr rotates around a stationary cone burr. This
design allows for high-speed grinding – up to
5g per second – as well as minimal retention of
coffee in the system. Most burr grinders utilize
a small pathway through which ground coffee
passes. On the Sette, coffee simply falls from
the burrs down into your portalter.

The machine is equipped with a digital scale
utilizing Acaia technology that holds three
adjustable and precise presets. This allows
you to save three different dose weights for
a variety of uses.

FEATURES

SETTE 270Wi

270Wi

The “i” in 270Wi stands for intelligence - the grinder now
quickly calculates and predicts the stop point when you
change your grind setting, beans, or dose weight. This
eliminates the need to adjust the offset.

The new 270Wi maximizes its built-in Acaia high
precision scale by ltering unpredicted vibrations that
could affect dosing accuracy, such as door closures,
footsteps, unsteady surfaces.

A “quick burst” feature allows you to add small
increments of coffee to your nal dose after the grinder
has stopped.

In the event of a software update, it can be installed
wirelessly via the integrated Bluetooth using Apple
phone or tablet.

GRINDING MECHANISM:

The Sette Series has, at its core, a revolutionary
grinding mechanism that produces game-changing
performance. Key aspects of this innovative
mechanism include:

• Straight-thru vertical grinding of the beans (highly
ecient and results in minimal residual coffee in
the system).

• Rotation of the outer ring burr (with twice the
surface area of the cone burr) along with proprietary
tooth geometry, produces grinding thru-put that is
two to three times that of others in its class.

• Proprietary gear box (planetary + crown gear) that
maximizes eciency of torque transfer, resulting in
lower power consumption and much less heat.

• Powerful DC motor for maximum starting torque
and eciency, resulting in cooler operation.

BURRS & BREWING METHODS:

Manufactured by Etzinger in Liechtenstein, the Sette
270Wi is built with 40mm conical AP (all-purpose burrs,
which produce weight-based espresso grind, as well
as grinding for manual brewing requiring a ner grind
range (e.g.weight-based Aeropress and Hario V60.
They burrs grind coffee at 3.5g to 5.5 g/sec. depending
on the roast and the setting. The burrs are durable and
will remain sharp for many years.

The clever design of the Sette Series burr assembly
offers you, the user, the ability to exchange the
cone burr in less than a minute with no tools and no
recalibration.

CONVERTIBLE DEVICE HOLDER &
GROUNDS BIN:

A built-in convertible holder, unique to the Sette Series,
allows you to grind directly into your portalter, the
supplied grounds bin, or most of the popular brewing
devices (V60, Clever, Kalita, etc.. The rubber sleeves
on the arms are fully rotational allowing you the option
to position them in a way that best suits the tool/brew­method you are using. The arms can accommodate
portalters from sizes 49mm to 58mm and the holder
includes an integrated hook for stability.

The Sette’s grounds bin is made from an anti-static
plastic, with a m
preferred brewing device. It has a usable capacity of
160g (Med Roast.

ACAIA - (WEIGHT BASED DOSING):

This grinder was designed with a built-in scale using
the weighing technology of Acaia, giving precise and

accurate weight-based dosing, and a 10th of a gram
sensitivity. The 270Wi has the revolutionary ability to
g

rind by weight directly into a portafilter - a breakthrough
in grinding technology! This unique grinder design
responds to the Specialty Coffee user trend of using
specific weight based recipes for coffee preparation.

its

DIGITAL CONTROL PANEL:

A user-friendly front mounted control panel has an
easy to read backlit LED display. Three programmable
buttons allow for grind weight setting within 0.1 gram.
Simply press the start button and the Sette
automatically delivers precise dosing.

GRINDING ADJUSTMENT:

The Sette has a macro adjust of 30 steps, grinding
from espresso to manual brew. A step-less micro
adjust with 9 indicators, allows the user to easily dial in
a perfect espresso. The macro/micro mechanism is
directly connected to the cone burr resulting in
immediate and true grind adjustment.

CLEANING:

The cone burr is easily removable with no tools, making
cleaning very easy.

MINIMAL RETENTION:

To maximize freshness, the Sette minimizes the
ground coffee left in the grinder.

MOTOR:

A powerful, high torque DC motor drives the Sette. The
circuitry is equipped with an automatically resetting,
thermal cutoff switch.
