About Nuova Simonelli
Nuova Simonelli has been building espresso equipment in Belforte del Chienti, Italy, since 1936, and today sits within the Simonelli Group alongside Victoria Arduino. The brand built its name on blending Italian craftsmanship with genuine engineering innovation — from heat-exchange systems to T3 thermal stability — and backs that reputation by sponsoring the World Barista Championship. It's trusted by cafés and coffee professionals across South Africa and globally.
The Product
The Nuova Simonelli MCD Grinder is a commercial doser grinder built for high-performing espresso stations, available here with 65mm, 75mm or 85mm burr sets depending on the throughput your bar needs. It combines micrometric grind adjustment with an automatic doser and portafilter holder, built into a die-cast aluminium body designed for daily, demanding use. This is café-grade mechanics built for bars where consistency across shifts and baristas actually matters.
Micrometric Grind Adjustment (Dial-In Precision)
Fine, stepless adjustment lets you dial in particle size to the level that supports consistent extraction, shift after shift.
Large Flat Burr Options — 65mm, 75mm or 85mm (Built for Your Volume)
Choose your burr size based on throughput: 65mm for moderate volume, stepping up to 75mm or 85mm for busier bars that need faster, higher-capacity grinding.
Automatic Doser (Workflow-Ready)
An automatic doser and portafilter holder support a smooth bar workflow, so grinding doesn't hold up the next order.
Die-Cast Aluminium Body (Built to Last)
A robust die-cast aluminium body is built for the daily knocks of a commercial bar environment.
Compact Commercial Footprint (Fits the Espresso Station)
Sized to sit neatly alongside your espresso machine without crowding the station.
Who It's Built For
The MCD is built for you if you're running a specialty café, training bar, or retail bar with moderate to heavy espresso demand and need repeatable extraction across shifts and baristas. It suits anyone looking for a step up to professional mechanics without the full footprint of a high-volume roastery grinder. Reliable, fine-tunable, built for the bar — this is grind consistency you can hand to any barista on shift.
