This looks great! Hope to hear more in depth info.
Wow, great job improving a classic!
Beautiful grinder. I’ll get one for filter coffee grinding once I have more countertop space to sit next to my Lagom P100 (which I use for espresso)
Sounds cool. Really cool new features which are obviously focussed on modernising the old EK43 into the current coffee scene.
I wish I could justify buying one of these for my house!
Oh you can
Already ordered. Cant wait 🎉
Yay! Thank you!
Just ordered mine to a company the two 65GBW
Bomb 💥
ORDERED :)
Hiii , i purchased one but about the library mode , I saved the recipes but it kept grinding beans endlessly yet i saved a certain gram limit
Super!!!
Thank you!
This looks epic.
Looks interest! You show 100 microns and mention it is the distance between the discs. Is it accurate and calibrated out of the box or does it still need the dealer/user to that it? Does it hold the calibration? What would the coffee particle size be at 100 micron of disc distance? Before you needed the Turkish burr set to grind fine, is the Omnia compatible with them?
The particle size at a given value - say 100 microns - will vary from one coffee to another due to the varying hardnesses (light roast and dark roast).
The Ek Omnia performs as the EK43 in terms of how fine it can grind and it also can use the Turkish burrs if required.
So excited to buy one as soon as they hit Australia. silly question..Is the hopper capacity 250g or above? that would be great for doing retail bags as well in Melbourne.
As standard, it comes with the 250g hopper but will also accommodate the larger hoppers from our E range of grinders.
What about a single dose hopper?
@@obsessedcloset2638 isn't every hopper a single dose hopper? A lot of coffee shops doing single dosing even use the large hopper.
In later deep dives, you should specify if you’re using the old cast geometry that is often desired and replicated by other burr makers.
We hear you. There is many baristas out there who request we re-release this burr quite often. In fact, many have not actually tried it but the online community have created quite a buzz around it making it legendary.
If there is enough demand we could consider remaking it. Perhaps we should put it to a public vote to gauge interest. If we get enough demand we could open a preorder and remake it.
The standard EK burrs have been incredibly popular and have been designed and calibrated to cover a wide range of coffees from amazing espresso to filter. Back then we reacted to the fact that the 2015 burrs were great for filter coffee but not a great all rounder due to its narrow application window and therefore did not cover the wider demands of our customers brewing espresso. However, we hear you, we think and we care about your thoughts. Do you think we should bring the EK43 2015 burrs back and would to commit with a pre-order?
@@MahlkoenigGrindersI'm happy with my 43-S and won't be in the market for the new model (though it is cool). I actually think the post 2015 burrs are fine. I swapped my pre-2015 burrs for the same application window concerns, so I think you made the right choice. My comment was primarily driven by trying to be helpful and echo the thoughts of others :-).
Did you ever thought about adding a portafilter attachment to the grinding beg holder? Maybe you could build one with a thread for being able to use the classig setting and if needet to attach the portafilter device. Of course, it must be connected somehow to a trigger so the grind can be initiated once you put the portafilter inside just like regular espresso grinders with grind on demand feature.
The new portafilter attachment accessory is awesome. We will do a video soon…
@@MahlkoenigGrinders beside that its a beautyfull marvel of german engeneering. Deutsche Spitzentechnologie hoffentlich bleibt ihr uns noch lange erhalten!
How's burr adjustment? Would it be automatically adjust its burr gap and alignment? Or do we still have to ust tools for the adjustment?
Great question, you don’t need to use tools anymore, simply use the dial zero point 🎉
is it will com with big hooper?
because i have coffee roasters and i have 6 pcs with old virgin i am planning to buy 2 more but we use big hopper
As standard, the Omnia comes with the 250g hopper but will also accept the larger hoppers from the E range of grinders all the way up to 1.8kg of coffee 🙂
How much does the Omnia weigh? I am hoping in was built a little lighter as I would love to get one for home use, but the original is just too heavy for me to handle.
Thank you for your feedback. Obviously the Omnia is a café first grinder and weighs similar to the 43.
Is there a data connection via the internet where recipes can be uploaded and/or maintenance/usage info can be gleaned via an app or such?
Not at the moment but this feature could be created in the future
Can you operate it and take a video? I want to hear its sound and see the speed of grinding for a double shot espresso. Thanks.
Yes! More videos coming soon. Subscribe to stay updated :)
Could you make a maintenance & burr alignment tutorial?
There is no need to perform alignment with the Omnia :)
I’m about to order the Omnia for home use. To replace my to Mazzer grinders (one for filter one for espresso). With just one grinder switching in library mode for espresso & filter settings. Did someone have this experience? I read in some comments that the omnia is not ideal for espresso !! I would love some feedback about this. Thank you
When properly zero calibrated the Omnia can grind espresso yes.
Will you be producing white versions of the EK Omnia? I have a white EK43 at home and would possibly be interested in a white Omnia!
Yes! There will be a white Omnia coming very soon 😊
Can this geind well for filter coffee? Also how long is the warranty ?
Yes of course. The Omnia is ideal for all methods. One year is the standard warranty
You should really consider making a shorter version. Home brewing community will pick the smaller version up in a second
Thank you we will feed this back to R&D
When can we expect the Portafilter holder and the dosing hopper to be available?
We are hoping very soon :)
Is there a smaller version in the pipeline, as there was for the EK 43 ? EK Omnia S...
Nothing planned at the moment. The Omnia has been designed for the cafe first and foremost. The height is essential for so many tasks. We will always listen to customer feedback and if there is the demand for a shorter Omnia then we can address this in the future.
Koppi!!
Will the burrs be precision aligned from factory ?
Alignment is guaranteed with two bearing either side of the rotating burr. This ensures perpendicularity of the shaft which translates to parallelism of the rotating and stationary burr, and this inherently ensures a greater quality grinding. Further quality assurance is verified during manufacturing.
Is there going to be a 110v or 120v version available?
The Omnia will be available in all regions with certification for every country
Will you release a short version later?
Nothing planned as yet…
I understand this grinder is designed more for commercial use but I would be great if they made a mini/shorter Omnia with the same burr size and omit the bag shoot holder for a portafilter holder. It's simply to darn big for most domestic kitchens
The Omnia is a cafe first grinder hence it needs to be this tall for cafe applications. If there is enough demand in the future perhaps the design team will work on your request. Stay tuned
I 100% agree with this. Currently I have 2 grinders for different applications, but would love to sell both and get an endgame grinder like this. To have the capability to automatically change grind settings like this is something I've dreamt about. Would also make it more friendly for my wife when she wants to make drip.
Advantages - a fantastic exterior, along with automated gap adjustment. Disadvantages - Has the alignment issue been resolved? Why is there no RPM variable function? Why is there no explanation regarding the grinding quality when compared to the previous version?"
Alignment is guaranteed with two bearing either side of the rotating burr. This ensures perpendicularity of the shaft which translates to parallelism of the rotating and stationary burr, and this inherently ensures a greater quality grinding. Further quality assurance is verified during manufacturing. The grind quality will be similar because it uses the same burrs but with the above steps this will bring a greater level of control when brewing.
Because of the brushless motor anything is possible so perhaps in the future variable rpm could be a possibility. Stay tuned for updates :)
Wasn’t it possible to screw the grinding discs from behind?
Burrs with no screw holes don’t affect grind quality in any way. We made the first screw less burr in the 1990’s for Tchibo - it was called the K501 and then also in the Tanzania in the 2000’s. We wanted to Omnia to have the same compatibility across the EK range as customers sometimes have a collection of burrs. Hope that helps!
The legendary ek cast burrs, are these the pre 2015 ek burrs?
This is the same burr that domes with the current EK43.
There is many baristas out there who request we re-release this burr quite often. In fact, many have not actually tried it but the online community have created quite a buzz around it making it legendary.

@@MahlkoenigGrinders alot of people would for sure, some companies like SSP are selling clones but ground not cast.
is there a short version? omnia s?
or may be a s mini for single dose
Thanks for the comment. The Omnia just comes in the one size for now.
What organ do you recommend I sell so that I can afford this?
Please first consider raising the money by selling items around the home before selling organs... thank you
Does it deliver the same grind quality as EK43?
The Omnia has the same burrs as the EK43 but thanks to an all new design the Omnia is even more accurate to further increase grind quality.
@@MahlkoenigGrinders That's great. I hope there will be a shorter version soon, will definitely buy it :)
갖고싶다.......
A giant
Where can we buy?
We will be shipping the Omnia to our distributors from December.
You can find your local distributor via the link below ❤

I need a S version!
Hello, whats the price?
Hello, you will need to contact your local Mahlkönig distributor for pricing in your region. You can find the information at www.mahlkoenig.com/apps/store-locator-2
What will happen to EK43?
If you watch the video, you will find out. The EK43 is here to stay ☺️
@@MahlkoenigGrinders I did. Guess I missed that. Tks.
Didn't realize the EKs had cast burrs.
Oh yes. We have always pioneered cast burrs and love them very much
May i know why not blind burr?
We have made many screwless burrs over the years, the last model was the Tanzania. The screw holes make no difference in grind quality.
I've sold my right arm, leg and kidney. Is it enough?
Waiting for a S version 😅
Make it shorter by 50% in height and price and I am in.
Thank you we will feed this back to R&D
Missed an opportunity to not make the doser GbW and adding an ionizer (?)
Thanks for the feedback. The ioniser technology is interesting definitely. The EK range is too fast for the load cells to accurately gather information. The volumetric technology we are using is actually very accurate. We will be sure to demonstrate once we have final release versions of the accessory.
We want pre2015 burr
We hear you. There is many baristas out there who request we re-release this burr quite often. In fact, many have not actually tried it but the online community have created quite a buzz around it making it legendary.

@@MahlkoenigGrinders Thank you for your interest and listening. Yes, I would be interested in ordering pre 2015. I am not telling you to change the current burr. We would like to have two options. Many users use the EK43 for filter coffee. It would be good for them to be able to choose a burr dedicated to filter coffee. Thank you.
Infuriating that companies can’t be transparent and lost the price ffs. A missed opportunity on their part. Just make buying decisions easier and you’ll find you sell more. This is more difficult than it has to be.
Thanks for your feedback. The recommended retail price is 2999 euros but it is always recommended to contact the dealer in your region for accurate pricing information as this can change slightly depending on the location. We would love to be transparent as possible but as we don’t sell directly we need to support our wonderful team of distributors across the globe who will be more than happy to help you gain accurate pricing including all delivery and taxes for your country, wherever you may be. If you have any more questions do not hesitate to get in touch.
@@MahlkoenigGrinders I’m actually in the market for another commercial grinder. I’m interested to learn more about the Omnia.
dumped the old design. bad move. touch screen? meh. built in ion cannon? nope.
adjustable rpm? nope.
Don’t worry, we will always keep the iconic original EK43, after all it’s the original single dose grinder that started a movement. The Omnia is here to join the EK43 & EK43 S in the EK family of grinders. Because the Omnia has a very high quality BLDC motor anything is possible. We will be answering more detailed questions with our R&D team soon, so stay tuned!
Love the grinder, but let's pause for a moment. Who is this video for? The average consumer isn't going to buy any grinder at this high price. The people with the kind of money to burn don't care about grinders. The people who are really into coffee, or pretend to be, and have TH-cam channels will have this grinder in their spaces, but they'll expect it (and will get it) for free. Commercial clients aren't likely to watch YT and will take whatever their reps recommend or have to offer. Unless you're going to market some lower cost options, it's not really worth promoting the brand on TH-cam, IMO.
Hey Espressomatic! Well… This video is for anyone who wants to learn a little bit about the new Omnia. This is our professional channel but we have a separate channel for our Home grinders if that’s what you were looking for? We have designed the Omnia for cafe use, some customers decide to use the EK range at home too. The information is here for anyone what wants it, if you don’t find it useful that’s also ok too ☺️ Have a wonderful day and don’t forget to subscribe!
