Who It's For

The Guatemala 2.0 is for operations whose grinding volume is filter and batch brew, not espresso — roasteries bagging retail orders, cafés running a batch-brew program, and wholesale accounts that need a dedicated high-throughput grinder rather than a shared, all-purpose one. The 71 mm burr set and approx. 900 g hopper are sized for exactly that kind of continuous, higher-volume filter grinding.

It also suits operations that specifically want the full-aluminum build: Mahlkönig positions the Guatemala 2.0's aluminum body as the more heat- and wear-resistant option for equipment that runs for hours without a break, which matters more here than on a lower-duty grinder.

It's not the right choice if espresso is part of the job — the Guatemala 2.0 is built and sold as a filter/batch grinder, not an espresso burr set. For a single grinder that covers both filter and espresso at a comparable commercial tier, look at the Mahlkönig EK43 instead, or browse the rest of our grinders if you're weighing several models against your volume.

What's in the Box

Per Mahlkönig, the Guatemala 2.0 ships with a bag holder, a vibrating basket (SB model) for settling grounds into retail bags, the installed 71 mm special-steel burr set, and stainless steel dosing cups.

Did You Know

• The Guatemala 2.0's body is solid aluminum, not a lighter alloy shell. Mahlkönig specifically engineered the full-aluminum construction to handle the thermal stress of continuous commercial duty — a material choice built for grinders that run for hours at a stretch rather than intermittently.

• It ships with a vibrating basket built for bagging, not brewing. The included "SB model" vibrating basket settles ground coffee evenly as it fills a retail bag — a detail aimed squarely at roasteries and wholesale accounts rather than café bar service.

• The "2.0" update was mainly about capacity, not the grind itself. Mahlkönig increased hopper size in the redesign specifically to cut down on mid-service refills for high-volume filter and batch operations, while keeping the same 71 mm burr and motor class.

What is the Mahlkönig Guatemala 2.0 used for?

It's a dedicated commercial filter and batch-brew grinder — built for roasteries, wholesale bagging, and cafés running batch brew, not for espresso.

What burr size does the Guatemala 2.0 use?

71 mm special-steel burrs, turned by a 1,100 W motor at 2,900 rpm (50 Hz) or 3,500 rpm (60 Hz).

Is the Mahlkönig Guatemala 2.0 doserless?

Yes — it's a grind-on-demand, doserless design, and ships with a bag holder and vibrating basket for filling retail bags directly.

How is the Guatemala 2.0 different from the original Guatemala grinder?

The 2.0 update increased hopper capacity, cutting how often a high-volume counter needs to refill mid-shift, while keeping the same burr and motor class.

What's the hopper capacity on the Guatemala 2.0?

Approximately 900 g.

Can the Guatemala 2.0 grind for espresso?

No — Mahlkönig builds and sells it specifically as a filter and batch-brew grinder. For a commercial grinder that covers espresso as well as filter, see the Mahlkönig EK43.

How much does the Guatemala 2.0 weigh?

28 kg (62 lb) net.
