Forte AP - ZCG1085
The Forté AP (All Purpose) is our response to calls for a commercial grade grinder that does it all. Within a compact footprint. Belt-driven ceramic flat burrs and included porta holder make this the perfect grinder for an efficient, repeatable espresso workflow.
Features:
Burrs
The Forté BG comes equipped with 54mm steel burrs that produce an accurate and consistent grind for a variety of manual and small batch brews. Our steel burrs were specifically designed to reduce fines, enhancing clarity of flavor in the cup. The broad grind range and narrow particle distribution (lack of fines) are the hallmarks of the superiority of the Forté BG burrs.
Intuitive Interface
The Forté BG allows you to dose by weight or time. Our signature dose-by-weight is accurate to the tenth of a gram. One touch awakens the touchscreen. The touchscreen controls all operations with three programmable dose presets; the ability to switch between weight, time, and manual grinding modes; and start and stop buttons.
Grind Adjustment
An all-metal macro and micro adjustment system produces a positive feel and secure grind setting. The macro-adjust moves from fine to coarse grinding in 10 distinct and repeatable settings. A secondary micro-adjust further divides each of the 10 macro steps into 26 distinct settings. These steps enable fine-tuning with ease, dialing in the exact grind for the preferred brew method being used.
Recalibrating Burrs
The Forté AP is calibrated at the factory to ensure an accurate range of grind. If necessary, the Forté AP burrs can be easily recalibrated using the special calibration tool that comes with the grinder in order to tune the grind range for specific brew methods.
Cleaning
Burrs can easily be removed for cleaning using the cast zinc tool that is included with your Forté.
