Fiorenzato Allground Sense

Buy it if you want one electric grinder with a built-in scale that handles espresso and filter at home; if you only brew filter, a simpler grinder costs far less.

In brief

The Allground Sense is Fiorenzato's grind-by-weight version of its home grinder. BeanScene says Fiorenzato launched the original AllGround in 2021 as its first high-performance grinder for the home, and introduced the Sense, with an integrated scale, in late 2023.

The scale sits in the portafilter fork. Seattle Coffee Gear says it offers "weight-programmable dosing and a built-in scale for accurate dosing every time." A touchscreen shows red for espresso, blue for moka and green for filter.

Independent reviews of the Sense are scarce. Most of what follows comes from Seattle Coffee Gear, a retailer, from an Australian retailer and from the Australian distributor interviewed by BeanScene. Their claims are the sellers' own.

What it does well

  • Built-in scale stops grinding at your programmed dose, per Seattle Coffee Gear
  • Display changes colour for espresso, moka and filter ranges, per Seattle Coffee Gear
  • Top burr comes out without tools for cleaning, per Seattle Coffee Gear
  • Sound-insulated case for quieter grinding, per Seattle Coffee Gear

Where it falls short

  • Independent hands-on reviews of the Sense were scarce; most sources are retailers or a distributor
  • Seattle Coffee Gear calls the adjustment both 'stepless' and 'stepped' in different places
  • A distributor says the scale is accurate to 0.2 g; that is a claim, not a test
  • The original Allground costs less and has no scale

What it does well

Dosing by weight is the headline. Di Pacci says the built-in scale "stops at your programmed dose, so there is no guessing and no separate scale on the bench." Seattle Coffee Gear lists two programmable doses plus a manual option for espresso, and three each for moka and filter.

One dial covers three jobs. Seattle Coffee Gear says the Sense "automatically detects your grind adjustment range" and changes the screen colour. Fiorenzato's distributor told BeanScene that the espresso burr geometry is designed to give a low peak of fines, and that in filter mode the burrs produce a very low level of fines.

Adjustment is fine-grained. Seattle Coffee Gear says the micro-stepped collar offers "the best of both stepless adjustment accuracy and stepped adjustment repeatability." Di Pacci calls it a micrometric ring nut with continuous adjustment.

The burrs are coated and large. All three sources give 64 mm flat burrs in M340 steel with a Dark-T titanium-based coating. BeanScene's distributor claims a durability five times longer than standard burrs; that is the distributor's figure.

Maintenance is designed in. Seattle Coffee Gear says the top burr removes without tools and that the case is sound-insulated for quieter grinding. BeanScene says an easy-open button gives quick access to the chamber.

Where it falls short

Evidence is the main gap. Seattle Coffee Gear's page showed no customer reviews for the Sense when checked, and no hands-on test turned up. The accuracy of 0.2 g, quoted by the distributor in BeanScene, is the seller's number.

Sources contradict each other on adjustment. Seattle Coffee Gear's quick specs list "Grind Settings: Stepped," but its technical list says stepless, and Di Pacci says continuous. It is a trivial difference to use, but it shows how little checked detail exists.

It is bulky. Seattle Coffee Gear lists a height of 18.15 in and 23.35 lb shipping weight.

It costs a lot more than a no-scale grinder. The original Allground exists in the finder, and a distributor told BeanScene that the Sense is an upgrade on it.

The hopper is 250 g, which is plenty for daily use but not for bulk jobs.

Who should buy it, and who shouldn't

Buy it if you switch between espresso and filter at home and want repeatable doses without an extra scale. Moka pot users get their own range.

Skip it if you only brew pour-over and do not need a scale built into the grinder, or if you want evidence from independent testing before paying for it.

How it compares

The Fiorenzato Allground is the original, which BeanScene says the Sense was designed to improve. The Baratza Forte AP and the Timemore Sculptor 064S are rated 2/2/2 here, like the Sense. See the grinder finder for the comparison.

Owning it

Plan to clean it. Our guide to cleaning a burr grinder covers the steps. If you move between espresso and filter, dialing in a new grinder walks through the first week.

Seattle Coffee Gear lists a one-year manufacturer warranty, and Di Pacci lists twelve months for Australian buyers.
