Bellezza Piccola 60 Titanio V2 Specifications

The table below lists only details published on the product listing. Where a figure is not stated, that is noted rather than estimated.

Key Features Explained

Each feature below is described in terms of what it does, why it matters and who benefits, based on the manufacturer's documented configuration.

60 mm titanium flat burrs

The Piccola uses 60 mm flat burrs with a titanium coating. Larger flat burrs grind quickly and are known for clarity and flavour separation in espresso, and the titanium coating is designed to extend burr life and hold a sharp edge longer. At this price, 60 mm titanium flat burrs are a strong specification for a home grinder.

Stepless micrometric adjustment

Grind size is set with a micrometric worm-screw adjustment that is stepless, so you can dial in very small changes. Fine, stepless control is important for espresso, where a tiny change in grind size shifts the shot noticeably, and it lets you dial in precisely as beans change.

Timer dosing for single and double shots

The Piccola doses electronically using a timer, with two programmable buttons for single and double shots, plus a manual option. This makes repeatable dosing easy once you set your times, which suits both new and experienced home baristas building a consistent routine.

250 g glass hopper and aluminium build

A 250 g glass hopper holds enough beans for several shots while staying compact, and the aluminium body and coffee spout keep the build solid. The manufacturer lists it in silver, white and black, so it can be matched to your machine, and each colour includes a free Bellezza knock drawer.

Grind Quality and Dosing

Based on the specifications, users should expect fast, consistent espresso grinding suitable for dialling in a wide range of beans. The 60 mm titanium flat burrs and stepless micrometric adjustment give the precision espresso needs, and the grinding speed of 1.3 to 2.2 g per second is quick for a home grinder.

Dosing is timer-based, so you program single and double shot times and grind to them, with a manual option available. As with any grinder, grind size has a large effect on the shot, so expect to dial in against your machine and coffee beans. The Piccola is hopper-fed rather than a single dose grinder; if you want to weigh in one dose at a time, see our single dose grinder guide.

Build and Noise

The Piccola has an aluminium body and coffee spout with a glass hopper, a solid and tidy build for a home grinder. The manufacturer lists a noise level of 80 to 83 decibels in use, which is normal for an electric burr grinder. Dimensions and weight are not published, so confirm the footprint with Di Pacci if bench space is tight.

Pairing With a Machine

The Piccola 60 Titanio is designed as the matched grinder for Bellezza machines, and Di Pacci sells it in a package with the Bellezza Bellona dual boiler, which is a simple way to buy a coordinated setup. It also pairs well with any 58 mm E61 machine that needs a capable flat burr grinder.

If you are still choosing a machine, see home coffee machines, and remember that a good grinder like the Piccola matters as much as the machine for shot quality.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Routine care keeps any burr grinder performing. Based on general practice for this configuration, expect the following, and follow the steps confirmed in the manual.

• Regularly: Brush out grounds from the burr chamber and spout to keep grinding consistent.
• Hopper: Wipe the glass hopper to remove bean oils that can build up over time.
• Burrs: Replace burrs when they wear, using genuine grinder burrs and parts. Titanium coating helps them last longer.
• Adjustment: Re-dial grind size when you change beans, since freshness and roast affect the setting.

Pros and Considerations

Who Is the Piccola 60 Titanio For?

The Piccola suits home baristas who want a capable flat burr espresso grinder at a mid price, and it is an easy match for a Bellezza machine. It is a good fit for:

• Home baristas from entry level to advancing, as the manufacturer notes.
• Bellona and other Bellezza owners wanting a coordinated grinder.
• Anyone pairing a 58 mm E61 machine with a flat burr grinder.
• Buyers who prefer hopper convenience with timer dosing.

Who Should Consider Another Grinder?

Another grinder may suit you better if any of these apply:

• You specifically want a single dose, low-retention workflow. See single dose grinders.
• You want a larger commercial grinder for high volume. Browse the Mazzer range.
• You want conical burrs specifically. Consider a conical model such as the Niche Zero.
• You are on the tightest budget. A smaller entry grinder will cost less, with smaller burrs.

Piccola 60 Titanio vs Alternatives

The comparison below uses grinders Di Pacci stocks in New Zealand, so every figure is verifiable. Rather than name a single winner, each grinder suits a different buyer.

In short: choose the Piccola 60 Titanio for value flat burr grinding and a Bellezza match. Choose the Eureka Mignon Oro if you want a single dose, zero-retention workflow, or the Mazzer Mini for a commercial-derived hopper grinder. See all espresso grinders to compare.

Is the Bellezza Piccola 60 Titanio Worth It?

For the right buyer, the Bellezza Piccola 60 Titanio V2 is worth considering. It delivers 60 mm titanium flat burrs, stepless micrometric adjustment and timer dosing at a mid price, and it is an easy, well-matched grinder for a Bellezza machine. For a home barista who wants a capable flat burr grinder without stepping up to commercial pricing, it is a strong package.

It is less suitable if you specifically want a single dose, low-retention workflow, conical burrs, or a large commercial grinder. In those cases a single dose model or the Mazzer range is a better fit. For most home setups, especially Bellezza owners, the Piccola is a sensible, value-focused choice.
