Mazzer Mini Electronic Type B
With regard to the Mazzer Mini Electronic Type B grinder, what does (pre-order) mean as far as expected delivery time?
What is the difference between the grinder here ( http://www.wholelattelove.com/Mazzer/typeb.cfm ) and the one in the link for "commercial" on the same page.
Is this the current model from Mazzer? The ones I have seen have the power cord coming out the back of the machine not the left side.
Thanks.

mjackson ♦ Allen,
It is the same model and it is the newer model not the older model pictured on commercial page. Pre-order means it is out of stock. I also would look at the Ceado E37 as well but we are also waiting for those to come into stock as well. The Mazzers are expected June 1st. I hope this helps and have a great day.

Does this come with the new stainless steel upgraded grind catch tray or the older plastic one?

Yes they do come with the metal drip tray. I like the grinders a lot.

does the 16.7 inches H include the height of the hopper? My under-cupboard space is barely 17", so this would determine whether I could use this grinder.

Yes that is the height including the hopper.

What grind settings do you recommend for the Mazzer Mini Type B? How do I know if I am grinding too fine or too coarse?

Michael Rosso ♦ Brandon...I would suggest you start grinding at a setting about three quarters of the way to the finest setting. You will know if the grind is to coarse by how fast your shot brews (best espresso 20-25 seconds at 8-9 bars of pressure). Thanks
TechMilanoItalia Drew, most people prefer to have a separate tamper as it is easier to apply the correct amount of pressure.

I have a Mazzer Mini model 0633734 with doeser like the larger units. It is possible to convert the doser to the new unit featured on the type B and if so how much would it cost, can I do it myself or would I need to send it in?

TechMilanoItalia Unfortunately, you cannot easily convert that machine over to the Type B components as there are more electronic components on the inside of the machine that would be involved. Your best bet would be to sell your current Mini and to purchase a new Type B.
