The Mazzer Major V doser grinds and holds ground coffee ready, so your barista reaches for a dose instead of waiting on the grinder. At 4.7 seconds for a 17 gram dose, it keeps pace through a morning rush without falling behind the machine.

Eighty-three millimetre flat steel burrs turn at 1600 RPM on 60 Hz power, driven by a 650 watt motor in an aluminum die cast body. Grind adjustment is stepless and micrometrical, with a memory track index so you can return to a setting you liked. The doser holds 280 grams and dispenses 5.5 to 8 grams on the lever, onto a fixed aluminum tamper built into the body. The grinding chamber opens for cleaning without losing your setting. The doser refills itself after every 12 doses and stops when it is full.

This is the grinder for a cafe or restaurant running espresso at medium to high volume on a doser workflow. If you dose to weight for every shot, the Major V Electronic is the better fit. If you want conical burrs running slower and cooler, the Kony S and Robur S sit above it. For lower volume, look at the Super Jolly.

What does "Automatic" mean on the Mazzer Major V Automatic?

On the Mazzer Major V Automatic, the automatic part is the doser, not the grinding. The grinder restarts on its own to refill the dosing chamber after every 12 doses and stops when the chamber is full, so a barista working a rush is not waiting on it. Grinding is still started by the switch on the base, and dose size is set mechanically on the doser. If you want on-demand grinding to a programmed time, that is the Major V Electronic.

Is the Mazzer Major V Automatic a commercial or a home grinder?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic is a commercial grinder. It draws 650 watts, weighs 45.2 pounds, and is ETL listed to commercial sanitation and safety standards. It will work in a serious home setup, but it is built for a working bar.

How does the Mazzer Major V Automatic differ from the Kony S and Robur S above it?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic uses 83 mm flat burrs. The Kony S uses 63 mm conical burrs and the Robur S uses 71 mm conical burrs. The conical models turn more slowly, which keeps grinding temperatures down on long continuous runs. The Major V is the largest flat burr grinder Mazzer builds.

How does the Mazzer Major V Automatic differ from the Major V Electronic?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic grinds into a chamber and dispenses a mechanically set dose on a lever. The Major V Electronic grinds on demand straight into the portafilter, timed to a programmed dose on a display. The Electronic also has electronically controlled ventilation, which the Automatic does not.

What size are the burrs in the Mazzer Major V Automatic, and what do I order to replace them?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic uses 83 mm flat steel burrs. Single phase machines take distributor part M28215 and three phase machines take M28216, which also fits the ZM. Our Mazzer 83 mm burr set listing covers the replacement.

How much coffee can the Mazzer Major V Automatic grind?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic grinds a 17 gram dose in 4.7 seconds, which supports sustained output above 60 doses an hour with a barista working the lever.

Does the Mazzer Major V Automatic have a cooling fan?

No. Mazzer's parts documentation for the Major V doser lists no ventilation system. The Major V Electronic is the version built with electronically controlled ventilation.

What does stepless micrometrical adjustment mean on the Mazzer Major V Automatic?

The grind collar on the Mazzer Major V Automatic turns continuously with no click stops, so you can set any point in the range rather than the nearest preset. A memory track index marks where you were, so you can return to a setting after cleaning.

How tall is the Mazzer Major V Automatic, and will it fit under a kitchen cabinet?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic is 26.75 inches tall, and you need clearance above that to lift the hopper lid and refill it. Standard upper cabinets sit roughly 18 inches above a counter, so it will not fit underneath one. Plan for open vertical space.

Can I program doses on the Mazzer Major V Automatic?

No. Dose on the Mazzer Major V Automatic is set mechanically on the dosing chamber, between 5.5 and 8 grams, with an oversize option reaching 10.5 grams. For programmable timed dosing, look at the Major V Electronic.

Is the Mazzer Major V Automatic single dose or hopper fed?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic is hopper fed. The hopper holds 3.5 pounds of whole bean, roughly 1.6 kilograms.

Will the Mazzer Major V Automatic work with my portafilter?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic has an adjustable portafilter holder fork, so it accommodates a range of commercial portafilter sizes. Coffee dispenses from the doser chute, and a fixed aluminum tamper is built into the body.

When should the burrs in the Mazzer Major V Automatic be replaced?

Replace the burrs in the Mazzer Major V Automatic when you see the signs of wear rather than at a set tonnage. Grind time creeping up at the same setting, having to grind noticeably finer to hold your shot time, and more fines or clumping all point to dull burrs. Mazzer does not publish a service life figure for this burr set, and the tonnage numbers circulating online belong to different models.

What power does the Mazzer Major V Automatic need?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic runs on 120 volt single phase power and draws 650 watts. The distributor recommends 7.5 amp service, and a dedicated circuit is sensible on a bar sharing a machine and a grinder. Mazzer also builds the Major V in a three phase version, which we do not stock.

How loud is the Mazzer Major V Automatic?

Mazzer publishes no decibel rating for the Major V doser, so we will not quote one. It is a 650 watt commercial flat burr grinder and it is audible across a cafe while grinding.

Is the Mazzer Major V Automatic NSF certified?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic is ETL Sanitation Listed to NSF-8 and ETL Listed to UL-763. If your health department or insurer requires listed equipment, this satisfies that requirement.

Where is the Mazzer Major V Automatic made?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic is made by Mazzer in Venice, Italy.

What warranty comes with the Mazzer Major V Automatic?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic includes a 12 month parts warranty.

What is in the box with the Mazzer Major V Automatic?

The Mazzer Major V Automatic ships with the grinder, the 3.5 pound hopper and lid, the drip tray, and a cleaning brush. The aluminum tamper is fixed to the body rather than supplied loose.

All new Mazzer grinders include a 12 month parts warranty.
