Ask any barista worth their salt what the best entry-level home coffee grinder is and you’ll get the same answer: the Baratza Encore. Fitted with 40 grind settings and razor sharp 40mm conical burrs, the grinder is well-developed for anyone looking to brew great coffee.
Grind coffee finely for pour over brewing or coarsely for a french press. All 40 grind settings are capable of consistently producing a uniform grind size, which is a non-negotiable when you want balanced coffee. The conical burrs will remain sharp for years.
Rocks hiding in coffee beans can destroy coffee grinders, but Baratza’s Gear Box 2.0 is sensitive enough to shut off when objects that are too hard come in contact with the burrs. Additionally, the inclusion of glass-filled thermo plastic reduces noise and increases gear longevity.
The grinder has a side mounted on/off switch that allows you to step away from the grinder and work on other things, and a front-facing 'pulse' button makes grinding small amounts easy. Comes in Black and the newest addition, White.
Baratza Encore Grinder Features
40mm Conical Burrs - Grind 0.8 to 1.1 g/sec. and will remain sharp for years.

2 Grinding Methods - Let the grinder run with a on/off turn dial or use the front-facing pulse button.

A clear route for a change of plan or a product problem.
Change-of-mind returns
You may request a change-of-mind return within 30 calendar days of delivery. Contact us before sending anything back. The item must be unused, complete and in its original packaging, with accessories and instructions. You pay the return postage for a change-of-mind return. The original delivery charge is not refunded in this case. We do not charge a separate restocking fee.
Used equipment and opened consumables are not eligible for a change-of-mind return. This restriction does not apply to a claim about faulty, incorrect or misdescribed goods.
Faulty or incorrect goods
Contact us with the order reference and a description of the issue. Consumer guarantees apply independently of our 30-day change-of-mind policy or a manufacturer’s warranty. The appropriate remedy depends on the problem and your rights under Australian Consumer Law.
How to arrange a return
- Call +61 480 811 861 and explain whether the request is a change of mind or a product problem.
- We will provide the return instructions and confirm the receiving address. Do not send goods to the contact address without arranging the return.
- Pack the item securely. Keep your postage receipt and tracking reference.
- After receipt, we assess the item and explain the outcome. If more information is needed, we will contact you.
Return delivery costs
For a confirmed fault, we cover reasonable return costs. For large or difficult-to-return goods, contact us so collection or another suitable arrangement can be discussed. Keep reasonable postage receipts. You do not have to pay a restocking fee for a valid consumer-guarantee remedy.
Refund timing
Once a refund is agreed, we aim to issue it within 7 business days to the original payment method. Bank processing may take additional time. We will not require you to accept store credit instead of a refund where you are entitled to a refund.
Cancellations and delivery issues
Contact us promptly if you need to change or cancel an order. See Order help for the process and Shipping & delivery for delays or damage in transit.
The confirmed return destination will be supplied when a return is arranged. This page does not establish the contact address as a staffed returns depot.
