Can't decide between DF83V and DF83 V3 [$700]
Hey everyone,
I'm stuck between two grinder options and could really use some help from people with more experience.
I have an ECM Mechanika and I've been looking at the DF83V or DF83 V3 as my grinder. However I'm torn between two versions:
• DF83V Single Dose – 719€ • DF83 V3 Single Doser – 579€
The price difference is 140€ which isn't massive but not nothing either.
My questions:
-
What are the actual differences between the two?
-
Are the improvements on the more expensive version worth the extra 140€?
-
Why is the V3 so Cheap in comparisn to the DF83V
Also open to other alternatives up to 800€ if there's something significantly better in this price range!
Thanks in advance!
