I've been researching this until my eyes are buggy, and I'm hoping someone with experience on either or both of these machines will chime in. I've read the Titan Grinder project, and all the specs on both, but I'm hoping someone can give me their personal experience/thoughts.
My cafe needs to jump to a bigger, meaner grinder. We're going through 100-150+ lbs of espresso a week. We need to get some grinders with great through-put, good durability, good temperature control, seems like conical is the answer. Roburs look like the way to go, but I keep seeing Compak K10's come up, and obviously they have a more attractive price-tag.
Anyone have any comments on these machines, outside of the price? Is there a knock-down reason to get the Mazzer regardless of the Robur's higher price? My thought is: $3,000 isn't the end of the world, when you're talking about (one of) the most important pieces of equipment in the cafe, but I need to convince some other people of this before it's going to happen.
