What we note
We compare how makers describe burr size, grind-range coverage, and static/retention behavior. “Espresso capable” on a box is a marketing phrase—home machines and baskets vary widely, so we treat that phrase as a starting hint, not a guarantee.
Label reading tips
Check whether the scale is numbered for reference only, whether burrs are user-replaceable, and what the manual says about oily beans or flavored coffees. Retention claims should be read against hopper design and chute shape.
Limits
Noise, heat build-up during long runs, and particle distribution are hard to verify from packaging alone. Our pages summarize stated specs and common caveats; they are not lab particle analyses.
