While you pull an espresso, the grinder is already grinding and weighing the next dose. It comes from Markibar Innovación in Esquíroz (Navarra, Spain), founded in 2009; by its own account, the team brings more than 30 years of experience with espresso grinders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow grind-by-weight with Instant Dose works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany grind-by-weight grinders weigh in real time while grinding into the portafilter. The IZAGA W works differently: a scale in the doser controls the amount, the dose is pre-ground and weighed, and it is dispensed immediately when you insert the portafilter. Markibar states the accuracy as ±0.2 g.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause weight determines the dose and not time, the amount stays the same according to Markibar when you change the grind setting, the burrs age, the roast changes or the humidity fluctuates. All you adjust is the grind setting, to steer the extraction. Up to three doses can be programmed independently of each other, for example for a single, a double and a larger shot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the cup, this means: a constant dose is the foundation for extracting by weight ratio, with 1:2 as a starting point and not a law. No shot is exactly repeatable, because bean, room climate and person change every day. A dose that is right takes one variable out of the equation, so you can concentrate on grind setting and taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGrinding mechanism, temperature and grind setting lock\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IZAGA W grinds with 64 mm flat burrs at 1,350 rpm (50 Hz). HQ Long Life burrs are fitted from the factory, which Markibar rates for around 1,500 kg of coffee. The Extreme burrs with TDC coating are available as an option, developed with the Swiss manufacturer Helfezi AG and rated for around 5,000 kg. Grinding mechanisms are like engines: each has its own character, and there is no objectively best grinding mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeat in the ground coffee lets volatile aromas escape faster. Markibar therefore thermally separates the motor and the grinding chamber and, in the IZAGA family, also removes heat with a fan. You adjust the grind setting with a lever with a scale: one button releases the direction towards finer, the other the direction towards coarser, and without a button press the setting stays locked. This way the grind setting does not shift by accident during service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWorkflow during service\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grinder recognises which portafilter is inserted. For this, an identifier is attached to the double portafilter, and two identifiers are included. This way the IZAGA W dispenses the matching dose without a button press. You switch between the pre-ground dose (Pre Dose) for rush periods and On Demand for quieter phases directly on the control panel. In addition, the IZAGA W has the mode C2 Precise, designed for a very accurate double dose at a fast pace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ccc-compare-table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDosing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrind-by-weight with scale in the doser, Instant Dose\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e±0.2 g (manufacturer's figure)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProgrammable doses\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eup to three, independent of each other\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDose range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle dose 5–18 g, double dose 5–28 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOperating modes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePre Dose, On Demand, Quick change, C2 Precise\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePortafilter recognition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eautomatic, via identifier on the double portafilter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBurrs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64 mm, flat; HQ Long Life (rated for approx. 1,500 kg) or Extreme Helfezi TDC (approx. 5,000 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpeed\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1,350 rpm (50 Hz), 1,620 rpm (60 Hz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGrinding capacity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 g\/s, 8 kg\/h\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGrind setting adjustment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLever with scale, bidirectional lock\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCooling\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMotor and grinding chamber thermally separated, fan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBean hopper\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eControls\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlphanumeric display with membrane keypad\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTamper\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eavailable with or without a fixed-mounted tamper; Ø 57 mm fitted from the factory, Ø 53 mm included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e525 W, 220–240 V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDuty cycle\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34% on, 66% off\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions (H × W × D)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e640 × 180 × 352 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eColours\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite, grey, black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarkibar Innovación S.L., Esquíroz (Navarra), Spain\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho the IZAGA W is made for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarkibar recommends the IZAGA family from a consumption of around 10 kg of coffee per week. The IZAGA W is built for cafés, bars and restaurants where several people work at the same grinder and every dose should be the same, regardless of who happens to be behind the counter. If you prefer to dose by time, you will find the same grinder base in the IZAGA KEY, and a slimmer design in the ORHI. All models are in our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/markibar\"\u003eMarkibar collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor comparison: the Mahlkönig E65W GbS weighs in real time while grinding and can synchronise with compatible La Marzocco machines, and the E80W GbS brings 80 mm burrs for high volumes. You can find both in our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/mahlkonig-1\"\u003eMahlkönig collection\u003c\/a\u003e, and more models under \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/grind-by-weight-kaffeemuehlen\"\u003egrind-by-weight coffee grinders\u003c\/a\u003e.

Many cafés work excellently with a time-controlled grinder and a scale next to it. Whoever chooses the IZAGA W is choosing a workflow in which the portafilter is inserted, the dose is dispensed and work carries straight on. That is a decision for a working rhythm, and it is just as legitimate as any other. Our opinion is one of many.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat goes with it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IZAGA W calls for an espresso machine that keeps up with its pace, from our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/kaffeemaschinen\"\u003ecoffee machine selection\u003c\/a\u003e or from \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/la-marzocco\"\u003eLa Marzocco\u003c\/a\u003e.
