Hi guys, new here. I bought this ECM grinder at Clive here in Portland June 2020. My Sette 270 had broken and this was all they had at the time. I ended up fixing the Sette and this sat unused thinking I would return it once Clive started taking in used equipment again. Anyway, they aren't taking grinders so I'm going to try to sell it here. Hoping for a Portland buyer so we can both do a face-to-face transaction.

Price New $949, selling for $700. OK Let's try $599 that's a steal. Still available as of March 6




Here's the write up from a retailer currently selling the grinder:
ECM S-Automatik 64 Espresso Grinder

Overview
The grinder is the single most important piece of equipment that accompanies an espresso machine and we can tell that ECM kept this in mind when they designed the S-Automatik 64 burr grinder. With a powerful 450W motor and a set of 64mm stainless steel burrs, it's surprising they managed to fit so much into so small a product.

Features and Performance
A nice finishing touch we noticed is the vented housing for greater airflow and cooler operation so your coffee beans aren't affected during the grinding process.The S-Automatik 64 also boasts a subtle improvement in grind adjustment with the addition of the o-ring inside the grinding chamber. This prevents grounds from packing the adjustment threads, which would otherwise make calibrating the burrs difficult or unreliable, as you might find on other grinders.

You'll find the S-Automatik 64 is easy to set up and use. Grind adjustment is stepless with the worm gear adjustment key, adjustable with just your fingertips and allowing for a near infinite number of settings. For dispensing, you can program unique shot-times for both single and double shots within 1/10th of a second. Manual grinding is also an option for those who want more control.

Why You Should Get It
All-in-all, the S-Automatik 64 stands out as a solid companion to any prosumer home espresso machine. The stepless grind adjustment means you have very fine control over your grind setting, which really helps when dialing in your espresso. The stainless steel housing adds some class and durability, as well. The LED display on the S-Automatik 64 matches the PID temperature controller on equipped ECM espresso machines, for an added touch.
