Stop Guessing Your Grind Settings
Get the exact grind number for YOUR grinder — not a generic range. Dial in new beans in 1-2 shots instead of 6+.
The Home Espresso Struggle
Every home barista knows this pain. New bag, new beans, and suddenly your perfectly dialed shots taste like battery acid.
Generic Advice Doesn't Help
YouTube says 'grind finer' — but HOW much finer on a Niche Zero? Every guide assumes you'll just figure it out.
Every Grinder is Different
Your grinder's '15' might be someone else's '12'. Settings you find online don't transfer to your equipment.
Trial and Error is Expensive
6-12 wasted shots per new bag adds up fast. That's $20-40 in beans before you even get a good cup.
The Number, Not a Range
GrindDial gives you the exact setting for your specific grinder — not a vague "somewhere between 10-20" range.
Our grinder behavior engine contains sensitivity curves, espresso zones, and calibration data for popular grinders. Combined with your one-time calibration, we translate "grind finer" into actual numbers.
- Roast-aware starting points
- One-shot calibration to your unit
- Taste-based adjustment calculations
