Product description

The Forté BG boasts a range of impressive features including 54mm steel flat burrs, a high-torque motor, and an advanced touchscreen interface. These components work together to deliver precise and consistent grinds, whether you're making a single cup of pour-over or brewing a large batch.

Size and design
The Forté BG is compact yet powerful. Its sleek aluminum housing ensures durability and a professional look, making it a perfect fit for any kitchen or café. The grinder's intuitive glass touchscreen interface allows for easy operation. The backlit LED screen provides clear visibility of all settings and adjustments. With three programmable buttons, users can set and save their preferred grind times or weights for different brewing methods, ensuring consistency and convenience.

Steel flat burrs
Equipped with 54mm steel flat burrs, precision-milled in Europe, the Forté BG produces high-clarity brews. These burrs are designed to minimize fines, ensuring balanced and flavorful cups of coffee. The grind range of the Forté BG spans from 230 to 1150 microns, providing the versatility needed for various brewing methods from French press to drip coffee.

Grind adjustments
The grinder features both macro and micro adjustment sliders, offering 260 grind settings. The lever on the right controls the macro adjustments, while the lever on the left allows for fine-tuning between the macro settings with 26 micro adjustments per macro setting. This dual-cam grind adjustment system allows you to fine-tune your grind with precision, making it simple to switch between different brewing methods and consistently achieve the desired grind size.

Weight and time-based dosing
The Forté BG includes a built-in electronic scale for weight-based dosing, accurate to +/- 0.2 grams, and timed dosing to one-tenth of a second. The intuitive touchscreen interface lets you switch between dosing methods and program three presets for different brew styles. This ensures that each dose is precise and repeatable, crucial for achieving the perfect cup of coffee.

High-torque motor
A significant upgrade from the Vario models, the Forté BG's motor is 70% more powerful and can run twice as long. This motor operates quietly and with less heat, thanks to its slow rotation speed and thermal cut-off switch. This feature not only enhances the grinder's longevity but also maintains the integrity of the coffee flavor by preventing overheating.

Hopper and grounds bin
The grinder features a 300g bean hopper with a shutoff valve for easy bean changes and minimal waste. The grounds bin has a 120g capacity, suitable for batch brewing. The "Stopper Hopper" reduces bean waste to just 10 grams, making it efficient and convenient for switching between different coffee beans.
