Details Product Specs
At Espresso Parts, we work with cafés, roasters, and technicians every day—and one thing is clear: consistency across shifts, staff, and locations is one of the hardest challenges in espresso. The Mahlkönig E65W Grind-by-Sync (GbS) was built to solve exactly that.
By combining Grind-by-Weight accuracy with Mahlkönig’s cloud-enabled Sync System, the E65W GbS doesn’t just grind coffee—it actively synchronizes with your espresso machine to maintain dial-in integrity in real time. The result is repeatable, measurable espresso quality at scale, without relying on manual intervention.
This is precision grinding designed for modern, data-driven coffee programs.

How It Compares to Other Mahlkönig Models
E65S GbW vs. E65W Grind-by-Sync
Both grinders offer grind-by-weight precision, but the E65W GbS adds real-time synchronization and cloud connectivity, making it the clear choice for multi-machine or multi-location operations.
E65W GbS vs. E80 Series
The E80 models are built for extreme volume and speed. The E65W GbS prioritizes precision, data integration, and consistency over raw output—ideal for cafés that care as much about repeatability as throughput.
Key Takeaway:
If you’re running a connected café and want your grinder and espresso machine working as a single system, the E65W Grind-by-Sync stands in a category of its own.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this grinder compatible with all espresso machines?
A: No. The Grind-by-Sync functionality is designed to work within Mahlkönig’s Sync ecosystem and is compatible with supported La Marzocco machines.
Q: Does it still work as a standard grind-by-weight grinder without Sync?
A: Yes. Even without active synchronization, the E65W GbS functions as a highly accurate grind-by-weight espresso grinder.
Q: Is this suitable for single-origin and changing coffees?
A: Absolutely. The micrometric adjustment, DDD system, and GbW dosing make it well-suited for frequent coffee changes and precise dialing-in.
Q: Why might there be coffee residue when I unbox it?
A: Every grinder is tested with coffee at the factory to ensure proper performance. A small amount of residual grounds is normal.
Q: Is this overkill for a single café?
A: If consistency, reduced training time, and future scalability matter to you—no. If you prefer a fully manual workflow, a non-Sync model may be a better fit.
