      Quamar Q50E Grinder Polished Aluminium

      Quamar had been a supplier for some major brands for producing essential components and grinders.
      With its experience and knowledge in the production, they later started out with their own brand of grinders.
      Not only are they high performance and reliable, they are very affordable.

      Quamar products are entirely made in Italy

       

       

      A quick guide for owners:

      On calibration of grind size and setting the timer

      The calibration guide below is base on the Quamar M80E which will be very similar to the Q13E.

      For the Q50 series:
      Q50E, there are only two programmable buttons.
      Q50S, there are neither any programmable buttons nor an electronic panel. There’s a switch knob at the side for timer control.

      What’s the main difference between Q13, M80 and Q50?

      Q50 uses the smallest burrs with Q13 using the largest.
      M80 which has a 63mm burr, is the smallest size we recommend for cafes, offices, restaurants. They are also excellent for homes.
      Between Q13 with 75mm flat burrs and Q13 with 71mm conical burrs, the latter is actually much bigger. Conical burrs can produce rounder grinds with better yield, also they spin at a much slower speed.

      The smaller the burrs, the less fine it can grind, and also more heat it will release during grinding. Heat is increased due to lesser surface area to dissipate, and faster RPM of turning required.
      Heat is one of the main banes to coffee grinds and can diminish the aromatic profiles significantly.

       

      What’s the main difference Quamar Q50 and Bezzera’s BB005?

      Quamar Q50 has a better control on the timer. The collar has reference markings which might make it easier to follow for grind size adjustments.  The Quamar Q50 will be more convenient to use if you intend to pour all your coffee into the bean hopper and use the timer to dispense coffee, that will be great if you do many coffee. The caveat is you will need to configure both the timer and grind size, which makes the calibration process less pleasant initially or when there’s a change of blend.

      If you are doing single dosing, which means that you are not using the timer. You grind out a pre-measured amount of coffee every time you make an extraction. The Bezzera BB005 will be more ideal as it has less retention at the feeding collar. We will recommend using the single dosing method for home users or in low volume areas. It’s actually an easier method to use, and to teach a new user.

      Bezzera BB005 is using a 48mm conical burr, the number may appear smaller than the Q50’s 54mm but the conical burrs for the Bezzera actually has a much bigger surface area which means that it can grind much finer, almost equivalent to the M80E’s 63mm. Conical burrs produce grinds that are rounder to give better yield.  Besides that, the RPM for the BB005 is much slower, so the end result is generally more favourable.

       

       


      54mm Flat Burrs

      Made of hardened stainless steel, the flat burrs are very affordable.

      The 54mm size should last approximately 250-300 KG before replacement is required.


      Fresh on demand

      Beans are better protected from oxidation when it is in bean form.
      In powdered form, the surface area will increase by at least 60 times which hasten oxidation, making your coffee stale within 6 hours of exposure.
      This is an on-demand grinder, meaning the beans will remain in bean form and grind only when it’s activated.


      Touch buttons

      The touch buttons are touch sensitive and don’t require a hard press nor need the buttons depress down.

      This will eliminate the possibility of coffee getting trapped within the gaps around a button causing it to be stuck or non-reactive.


      Electronic Interface

      The Quamar Q50E Grinder has an electronic timer to dose the amount of coffee needed according to the duration set, program to an accuracy of up to 0.05 seconds.
      It has two dosage options and a manual button

      It also has the following options:

      Standby time – Time before the grinder goes off
      Wear mill – Set the alert to the number of use before changing of burrs required.
      Bar message – Set the welcome message
      Brightness – LCD brightness control
      Time/Date – Time and Date
      Counts of coffee produced – Total, partial and month.


      Mini Step Adjustments

      The user can make tiny steps of adjustment to reach the grind setting he wants.

      With the measuring scales, the user will have a reading to the preferred grind setting


      Usability

      The Quamar Q50E Grinder will be easy to use with the same features found in high-end commercial grinders.

       


      Well-Designed Hopper

      The Quamar Q50E Grinder had been requested for a smaller 500g beans hopper. Users can upgrade to a 1.2 KG.

      The hopper can be easily removed by the user and he can put the excess beans back to storage.


      Durability

      The hardened stainless steel and the heavy duty motor should last well for years.


      Easy Cleaning

      The hopper, burrs and most parts can be removed or access to clean easily.

      We will recommend users to use the Puly Grinder Cleaner for cleaning the burrs.

      Remarks:

      It is important to use the grinder brush and empty the chute occasionally.
      Depending on the level of oiliness of the bean, coffee can be retained and eventually block coffee from dosing out correctly.
      The grinder should not be used to grind other objects.

      Warning:
      Do not insert your finger into the grinder!

       

      Disclaimer:

      Please note that the warranty does not cover the burrs.
      The burrs are made of exceptionally hard material. There’s no way it can be damaged by grinding coffee beans in a year in a non-industrial environment. Unless the user damages the grinder to grind other material, beans weren’t properly destoned, or using the grinder in a commercial environment.
