Baratza Forté-BG Flat Steel Burr Commercial Coffee Grinder
Product Overview
The Forté BG (Brew Grinder) was the 2013 Winner for “Best New Product, Commercial” at the Specialty Coffee Association Expo. This machine is the high-quality commercial grinder that coffee shops insist on using. If you are thinking about opening a café or wondering what to purchase for your own busy shop, well this easy to use machine is the one for you.
This versatile high daily capacity (5lbs per day) grinder will fit all your needs from espresso to French Press, and has everything you need; easy to use multi-function touchscreen, grind-by-weight functions, built in electric scale for accurate weight grinding and a 10 oz. bean hopper to hold your specialty coffee beans.
The 54mm flat steel burrs are engineered to be accurate and to give the precision you need and expect in a high-quality commercial grinder. The accuracy of the burr allows you to have control of macro and micro adjustments. The macro-adjustment has 10 distinct and repeatable settings from fine to course and a second micro-adjust that can divide each of the 10 macro steps into 26 settings. These adjustments allow you to dial in the perfect grind for the brewing method of your choice.
The Forté BG is engineered for greatness and Barista’s and café owners are ordering multiple units for their busy locations. The small footprint allows you to line these units up and load each machine with different specialty coffee. This streamlines the flow of the bar and allows for staff to manage their work load a lot easier. It also allows your patrons to see this amazing grinder in action.
