Lelit Fred Tempo PL044MMT Coffee Grinder

A compact grinder that means business. The Fred Tempo is the fine-tuned version of Lelit's classic, designed for serious home espresso: consistent, straightforward, and no-frills. It has no screens or embellishments, just precise and repeatable grinding, which is what truly matters in the cup.

Highlights

38 mm flat steel burrs
Ensure uniform grinding, essential for consistent espresso extraction. This is where cup quality begins.

Stepless micrometric adjustment
Allows for total precision in grinding adjustments, with no "jumps". Crucial for hitting the sweet spot between under and over-extraction.

"Tempo" system (time-based dosing)
Simple and practical timed grinding. Set the time and consistently repeat doses day after day.

Espresso-focused
Designed with espresso in mind. It allows for fine enough adjustments to work with specialty coffees without frustration.

Compact and robust
Stainless steel body, small footprint, easy to integrate into any countertop without taking up unnecessary space.

Low retention (for its range)
Keeps residual grind to a minimum, which aids in freshness and consistency between doses.

Why choose the Lelit Fred Tempo?
If you've realized that the grinder is half of the espresso (or more), this is a serious upgrade compared to basic grinders or blade grinders. It gives you real control over extraction without overly complicating your routine.

It's ideal for those who want daily consistency, improved results, and to get more out of the coffees they buy, without yet venturing into more expensive and complex grinders.

Simple, direct, and effective. It does exactly what it needs to do: grind well for espresso.
