Encore ESP

Grind settings, every brew method

Worked out from this grinder’s own dial curve — five reference points placed on a shared 0–100 grind index, interpolated with a monotone spline for conical burrs — rather than a one-size-fits-all chart.

The Encore ESP is the Encore with the espresso range Baratza left out of the original — a recalibrated burr set and a collar remapped so the fine end has usable resolution instead of bottoming out. If you are cross-referencing recipes written for a standard Encore, the numbers do not transfer directly; the same figure sits finer here.
