Machines in the portafilter sizes it lists
Our records list the MiiCoffee DF54 as working with 51 mm, 54 mm, and 58 mm portafilters. These 15 machines in our list have no built-in grinder and use one of those sizes. Depending on the size, you may need to pour from a dosing cup. Check how it doses with the maker, and check the fit against the exact shape of your handle. The setup estimate adds the machine, this grinder, and $90 for basic setup items from our dated price checks. It is not a current quote.
