Mahlkönig 180 mm Special Steel Burrs – DK27 LS
Two 180 mm burrs made of hardened special steel for the Mahlkönig DK27 LS, designed for grind settings from espresso to French press and grinding capacities of up to 300 kg per hour.
Mahlkönig states a service life of around 10 to 15 tons at a medium grind setting. For the same grinder there is the Turkish version (article 303954, Turkish fine to French press), also in our Mahlkönig collection.
Particle size and uniformity determine how the coffee extracts in the cup. Which burr geometry suits you better depends on the application. Burr sets are like engines: there is no objective best. Our opinion is one of many.

Can I do the change myself?
For a grinder this size, we recommend a technician. We answer questions about the process by email at [email protected].
Tip from the roastery: After a burr change, we reset the grind size to fine and weigh every shot, from 14.5 g upwards and at a ratio below 1:2. For espresso our favourites are Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, dense and full-bodied with notes of chocolate and nut. For maximum body without acidity we reach for Very Nutty. The full range is in our coffee beans. That is our recommendation, one of many.
