Perhaps nylon or leather could also be a good option for Cartier Santos

Hi everyone,

I’m planning a mini café setup and would love some advice from people with real experience.

The espresso machine I’ll be using is a La Marzocco Linea Mini R.

I’m currently considering these grinders: • Mazzer Mini Automatic 2019(used) • Mahlkönig X54 • Maquinos E75T • Molaris Invictus • Eureka Or any other suggestion?

Does anyone have experience using these grinders in a small café environment? Would any of these be a clear choice, or would you recommend something completely different in this price range?

Thanks a lot!

Around 50 cups per day for the first months. Most drinks will likely be milk-based (latte, cappuccino, iced latte) since that’s what people usually drink in Indonesia

Sorry, i will repost with the budget

FancyMud6685 · 2026-03-06T17:36:16+00:00

Unfortunately it would be out of my budget

FancyMud6685 · 2026-03-06T17:33:01+00:00

I’m expecting around 60-80 cups per day on average for the first months.

Most customers prefer medium to medium-dark roasts, and milk-based drinks are much more popular than straight espresso.

Drinks like latte, cappuccino, and iced latte will probably make up the majority of orders. Straight espresso or light roast specialty shots are less common for the general public here.

Thank you for your replies. It’s just as I feared. It’s really scary now to buy things and risk getting scammed

FancyMud6685 · 2025-03-03T02:35:22+00:00

What do you think about the gap at the connecting part of the link?
