The i6 PRO - Compak's latest entry level release
Finding a solid commercial grinder that caters to low volumes (under 2KG per day) is a tricky task, and one that few brands have mastered. Compak have a great history of managing to produce grinders that tick all the key boxes, without breaking the bank. The i6 PRO is a bit of a rarity, in that it can punch through 2KG per day, delivering perfectly distributed fluffy coffee grinds, without missing a beat. Add to that it's super simple touch screen controls and easy access for cleaning and maintenance, making it one of the best pro espresso grinders we have seen for years. Perfect for locations serving 50-125 coffees per day.
What is the i6 PRO?
The Compak i6 PRO is a fantastic on-demand grinder model we have selected from the new Compak range that we think punches well above it's weight, considering cost Vs grind quality / build and speed. It's a collar adjustment grinder, built to stand up in any decent volume location, managing 2KG a day without any issues.
Who's it suited to?
The i6 is what we would call a low volume commercial grinder, suited to locations serving anywhere from 1-2KG per day, so roughly 50-125 coffees per day. It's not overloaded with unnecessary features, and does the key things exceptionally well, that make it seriously good value for money, and looks pretty slick at the same time.
