THE BARAZTA FORTE Welcoming the newest edition to Di Pacci - This incredible grinder is a life-long friend for any barista searching for the right consistency and balance when on the grind. This commercial grinder features a colossal of benefits that are sure to add a quality experience in efficiency, functionality and ease. The Grinder is a high-grade machine that sees new technology on the market with its touch controls, weight distribution controls and internal hardware. INTUITIVE INTERFACE The Forté–AP allows you to dose by weight or time. Our signature dose-by-weight is accurate to plus or minus .2 gram. The touch activation awakens your screen with LED backlit technology. The touch screen controls all operations with three programmable dose presets; Up or Down arrows to increase or decrease dose values; and TARE, MANUAL, START or STOP. Max programmable dose is 120g. ESPRESSO DOSING A unique feature of the Forté–AP is the ability to convert a weight preset into a timed value that is accurate within plus or minus .5 grams of the set point. This allows for weight oriented dosing for espresso. BURRS The Forté-AP grinder comes with 54mm ceramic flat burrs for accurate and precise grinding. The Forté-AP grinds at an average speed of 2.0g/sec for espresso and 3.5 to 3.7g/sec for press pot. The range of grind is 230 to 1150 microns. ADUSTMENT/GRIND RANGE An all-metal macro and micro adjustment system produces a positive feel and secure grind setting. The macro-adjust moves from fine to coarse grinding in 10 distinct and repeatable settings. A secondary micro-adjust further divides each of the 10 macro steps into 26 distinct settings. These steps enable fine-tuning with ease, dialing in the exact grind for the preferred brew method being used. HOPPER The hopper holds approximately 300g of coffee. An innovative bean shutoff feature in the collar permits no-mess, no-fuss hopper removal for changing out beans. Bean “waste” (below the stopper) averages a surprisingly low 10g, once the hopper has been shut off. RE-CALIBRATING BURRS The Forté-AP is calibrated at the factory to ensure an accurate range of grind. If necessary, the Forté-AP burrs can be easily re-calibrated using the special calibration tool that comes with the grinder. CLEANING BURRS Burrs can easily be removed for cleaning using the cast zinc tool that is included with your Forté. HOPPER EXTENDER An extension that can add 275g of capacity to the existing bean hopper. Several extenders can be added to get to the capacity you need.
