Swiss grinder manufacturer Bentwood is rolling out the H75 grind-by-weight grinder, which represents the second major model from the eight-year-old company, following the Vertical 63 machine.
Departing from the perpendicular barrel format and analog interface of the Vertical 63, the techier and more fully rectangular H75 greets users with a 2.4-inch sapphire glass screen that offers digital control over the grind setting.

Changes to the grind are executed with mechanical precision by a built-in servomotor. An adjustable portafilter holder, which was optional on the 63, comes standard on the H75 and connects to a built-in scale for programmable dosing accuracy, down to 0.1-gram resolution.
Within its deceptively right-angled case is an entirely slanted grind chamber, as referenced by the slashed “H” of the new machine’s logo. At its core is a set of proprietary flat 75-millimeter burrs that are angled for low retention and spun at a consistent 1,350 RPM by a 660-watt motor. The resulting output averages seven grams per second in the espresso range of fineness.

“Its speed and ease of use make it a perfect grinder for any commercial setting,” Bentwood Founder and Managing Director Manuel Maimann-Stern told Daily Coffee News. “That said, the small footprint and unique taste experience have already established the H75 as a favorite amongst home users looking for the ultimate grinder.”
A relatively heavy grinding chamber made of food-grade aluminum is designed to maintain low operating temperatures. Onboard fans also keep mechanisms cool on the inside of the box-shaped case. The exterior of the case is available in a variety of wood and metal finishes.

Built-in wifi capabilities allow technicians to collect usage and maintenance info. In the future, Maimann-Stern said this feature will also be used for communicating directly with espresso machines, a feature type previously introduced by manufacturers such as Mahlkönig.
The H75 launched in October 2024 in Europe for €2,640 ($2,746 USD, as of this writing).
As Bentwood seeks to broaden its distribution into new markets aroudn the globe, particularly in Latin America in 2025, GH Grinding and Brewing Solutions will continue to serve as its primary importer in the United States. GHGBS plans to formally launch the H75 at the SCA Expo in Houston in April.
