The Super Jolly V Up Timer is the doser version, and it is the least complicated grinder Mazzer makes for a commercial bar. Set the time switch, let it fill the 280 gram doser, then pull the lever for each shot. There is no screen to learn, no software to lock out, and no menu for a new hire to get lost in.

Each pull of the lever drops a measured dose, adjustable from 5.5 to 8 grams, or 8 to 10.5 grams if you order the oversize kit. The removable funnel and the adjustable stainless steel portafilter holder center the grounds in the basket so less of your coffee ends up on the counter. Underneath it is the same platform as the rest of the range: 64mm flat hardened high-carbon steel burrs, stepless micrometrical adjustment, and an aluminum die-cast body.

This is the grinder to buy when reliability matters more than features and the budget is real. It is the lowest price of any Super Jolly, it is the simplest to run, and there is very little on it to break. Good as a main grinder in a small to medium cafe, and good as the decaf grinder anywhere.
