Overview
The De'Longhi KG521M Dedica is designed to pair with the De'Longhi Dedica espresso machine, offering 18 grind settings and programmable dose control. The 40mm conical steel burrs handle espresso and coarser grinds, and the sensor technology stops grinding when the portafilter is removed. The Dedica grinder shares the slim, elegant design of the Dedica espresso machine, making them an attractive pair on any counter. A practical companion grinder for Dedica machine owners.
The De'Longhi KG521M Dedica features a 40mm conical burr set, crafted from steel. The burrs spin at 450 RPM, a deliberately slow speed that minimizes heat buildup and preserves coffee aromatics. Grind retention is approximately 2.0g, typical for a hopper-fed workflow.
At $130, the De'Longhi KG521M Dedica is aimed at home baristas seeking a solid grinder without a premium price tag. With a 350g hopper, it's designed for a traditional hopper-fed workflow. The conical burr design is known for producing a slightly bimodal grind distribution, which many enjoy for its body and complexity in espresso.
The De'Longhi KG521M Dedica is weighing 2.8 kg, manufactured in Italy, powered by a 150W motor. Its footprint measures 155 x 240 x 385 mm (W×D×H).
