The Turin SK40 is a new stepless variation of the Turin SD40. It is a well-designed single-dose grinder that uses a tilted base and bellows to minimize retention. It is built with a sturdy aluminum body and features 40mm stainless steel conical burrs with 8 points (same as version 2 of the SD40). In contrast to other grinders within its price range, which often have higher levels of retention and plastic construction, this grinder has minimal retention and is mostly constructed with metal. We are proud to be the exclusive US importer of this product and believe it performs as well or better when compared to grinders like the Niche Zero, Breville Smart grinder, Ascaso grinders, Baratza conical grinders, Fellow grinders, and blade grinders.

It has stepless adjustment that allows for an infinite number of minute settings between the highest and lowest setting. Adjustment is made by turning an adjustment auger, that slowly turns the adjustment collar.

Comes with a wood lid, black metal hopper, black rubber bellows, and a metal dosing cup.

For those interested in the technical details, the grinder measures 6.75 inches in length, 3.75 inches in width, and 12.5 inches in height without the bellows. With the hopper, the height increases to 14 inches. It weighs 5.75 lbs and features a stainless steel dosing cup. The body and base are made of aluminum, with the hopper available in plastic or aluminum, and the bellows made of rubber. Color options for the body include white, black, and polished aluminum, with black or white bellows and polished aluminum, clear plastic, or black metal hoppers. Additionally, lids are available in wood, white, or black. The grinder runs on 110v and 60hz, with a 150-watt motor. The hopper can hold about 40 grams. During grinding the RPM is about 400 rpm. Without beans it is about 650 rpm.

The SK40 is a grinder that can be used for a range of coffee from espresso to French Press, but due to stepless adjustment, it is not as easy to switch between grind sizes when compared to the Turin SD40 V2.

Grinders are tested at the factory with coffee to ensure proper alignment, so there can be minimal signs of coffee in the burrs.

    A great first grinder

    The SK40 is my first grinder, so I can't compare it to other machines, but I love it. It's simple and doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles (a plus in my opinion). It's solid and consistent and stepless, so you can really fine tune your grind. It's relatively quiet. Finding the right range of grind sizes, however, initially took me some time and trial and error. Based on what other owners say, there doesn’t seem to be consistency between machines, so you have to experiment. But since then, grinding for great espresso shots has been a breeze. The support team is excellent, and has replied quickly to my questions via email.

    Can you beat it for the money?

    My answer is “no”. I use mine for espresso only and there is a learning curve. I also ran a pound or so of cheap coffee to cure the burrs. I’m very happy. Build quality is excellent. No stalling ether. I do turn the grinder on before grinding.

    Okay low cost stepless grinder

    Seems to grind okay, but my issue with this grinder is the materials. As the other reviews mention, yes the construction of the grinder appears to be well built, however the materials used are likely very cheap based on the feel and look of them. I was blown away by the toxic smell I was hit with during unboxing (this coming from someone who has unboxed many manufactured goods of various builds/materials). I am concerned this grinder will not hold up for a year+ so recommend holding off on considering it until it stands the test of time in the marketplace.

    Since it is not mentioned anywhere on the website or the physical product, I contacted Turin and they confirmed these grinders are made in China.

    If these reviews may be updated I will circle back with an update to let you all know how it holds up.

    Customer has been offered a return and refund which was denied. We find that the materials and construction are nice, especially compared to competition grinders of similar price point. The 'toxic smell' I believe is the styrofoam insert used to keep the grinder safe.
