Please help ID grinders

Postby vanchopski on Tue Jan 24, 2012 4:00 pm

I just joined and haven't done an intro yet but I'll be doing that in a bit.

I'm wondering if anyone can help me ID a couple of grinders. All I know for sure is that both are Nuova Simonelli. If anyone can help out with model and age it would be a big help.

Oops. First time without photos. Now attached.

Thanks!

Good point. I actually uploaded two that I thought met the size requirements but they're not showing.

And voila!
Since it's hard to see the one on the left has a plastic body and the other is metal.

the black and brown ones are both Rossi RR45. Brown one made for dosing directly into the portafilter. Rancilio is MD40?

Really! I haven't seen them in person but the guy was sweearing up and down they were NS. I was looking online but couldn't find any NS grinders that matched so I guess that explains it.

Is it possible to tell how old they are by style or will I have to get numbers from the data plate?

Are these considered to be great quality commerical grinders? Because that's what I'm after! :)
