Looking for a Ditting KF804

Postby kingseven » Sat Dec 02, 2006 6:37 pm

I really would like a decent small grinder for non-espresso stuff and I guess the one that is screaming at me is the Ditting KF804

Anyone know the best place for one in the UK. I don't even know what they cost!

Phil was looking for Dittings (mainly 2nd hand) for ages. He might have a few ideas.

Hi Jim

I bought one of these earlier in the year from Bizerba. Excellent grinder but a lot of £££ - 4 figures

Its a huuuuge grinder by the looks of it... At the top there are drums with various bean types, the middle part has a dispensing mechanism and the bottom is a cupboard... a bit OTT! :P

Would any one be wanting to buy a relatively cheap ditting grinder KF804 or similar to the model shown above or no of anyone who would be interested? I have worked in a coffee shop for the last 3 years and due to brand standards we have no need for it anymore. Still works perfectly fine, with instruction manual, just desperate to get rid of it, as we have no need for it taking up space.

As Jim7 posted the original thread guess first dibs from him ..
secondly I cant help buying coffe stuff so if no one else wants it and the price is right guess you got a deal.
I have plenty so am happy to stand aside if others who have not had oppertunity to get a decent grinder need it
