Overview
The Weber Workshops EG-1 is a statement piece in the world of espresso grinding. Built with aerospace-grade materials and featuring an 80mm flat burr set driven by a powerful brushless DC motor, it delivers exceptionally uniform particle distribution. The anti-static design and near-zero retention make it ideal for single-dosing workflows. Its iconic cylindrical design and premium build quality have made it a benchmark for high-end home grinders. The EG-1 offers stepless adjustment with incredible precision, allowing users to dial in espresso with surgical accuracy. The grind speed is moderate to preserve flavor compounds, and the ultra-low retention means virtually no waste between shots. Perfect for the discerning home barista who values both form and function at the highest level.
