....A little more about the features:

Semi-automatic grinder
This Rancilio Coffee Grinder is semi-automatic. This means that you have to press the button to turn the machine on and you have to push it again to turn it off. This feature provides the operator ultimate control of how much coffee is ground, allowing for freshness to be preserved rather than grinding too much coffee and letting it go stale. The grinding switch is sealed to prevent coffee grounds from messing up the grinding mechanism.

Espresso Dosing System
The MD-50ST Rancilio Coffee Grinder is a doser espresso grinder which means that it grinds into a chamber which dispenses the coffee in uniform amounts. Just pull the lever on the doser to dispense between 5-10 grams of ground coffee/espresso. The Rancilio artisans manufacture all of their dosers to be exceptionally resilient and durable, with many metal parts where other companies use plastic. Using the MD-50ST this way works best when the doser chamber is at least half full. Some baristas grind only what they need on a per-shot basis and use the doser’s flapping action to get the grounds out in the proper dosage.

Heavy Duty Motor
The Rancilio MD50ST Coffee Grinder features a precisely-powerful 450-watt motor that runs quietly. Grinding espresso so finely puts a lot of tension on the any coffee grinder, but this 450-watt Rancilio Coffee Grinder can handle the job with ease. This Burr Coffee Grinder features a high-temperature overload switch to keep the machine safe if a stone gets caught in the burrs.

High Capacity Use
Other compact commercial burr coffee grinders don’t measure up in comparison to this Rancilio Coffee Grinder; This grinder can handle a shockingly large amount of work. To keep UV rays from damaging your beans, the hopper is blue-tinted. Holding 2 pounds of beans, and producing up to 19.8 pounds of ground espresso per hour, this Rancilio Coffee Grinder can produce enough coffee for a medium traffic coffee shop. The bean hopper connects directly to the body of the Rancilio Burr Coffee Grinder preventing accidental damage. The bean hopper features a metal slide plate to prevent the beans falling out of the bottom during cleaning.

High Quality Grinding Burrs
Precisely balanced 63.5 mm grinding burrs press out a consistently fine to extra fine grind every time. This consistency requires very well made grinder burrs; this Rancilio MD-50ST utilizes forged steel medium duty flat burrs that resist wear and corrosion.

Warranty and Support
The Rancilio Coffee Grinder MD-50ST is warranted against defects in parts and workmanship for 1 year. Any damage resulting from misuse or mishandling will not be covered.
