Mahlkönig Centrifugal Switch – EK43
The Mahlkönig centrifugal switch 705008 for the EK43. Original spare part, available in Bern and Zurich.
Mahlkönig describes the part as the fixed centrifugal switch of the EK43 Allround. The former part number is 305472.
Fixed part
The centrifugal switch works when the motor starts up. This product is the fixed part of the switch, not the rotating one.
The EK43 grinds for filter and espresso. Dose by weight, not by time. A ratio of 1:2 is a good starting point. Every shot is still unique, because the bean, the humidity and you yourself change every day.

Tip from the roastery: The EK43 grinds filter and espresso. The bean decides the taste in the cup. For most cups we recommend Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, dense, round and chocolatey. For maximum body without acidity there is Very Nutty, and if you would like to discover something fruity, you will find it in Wild Peach. That is our recommendation, one of many.
