FETCO GR-2.2/GR-2.3 Espresso Grinder - Dual Hopper 2 Switch CE & 3 Switch CE

The FETCO GR-2.2 and GR-2.3 represent the pinnacle of dual-hopper coffee grinding, specifically engineered for high-traffic environments that require both variety and precision. These robust units feature dual 5 lb (2.3 kg) removable hoppers, allowing operators to house two different bean types—such as regular and decaf—simultaneously. Designed for maximum efficiency, the hoppers are dishwasher safe and easily removed for cleaning or storage. Utilising FETCO’s signature slicing-type grinding burrs and a powerful motor with built-in overload protection, these grinders deliver an exceptionally uniform grind profile and an anti-static outlet chamber to ensure a clean, accurate dispense every time.

Operating with fully automatic digital controls, these 230V CE-certified models are tailored to distinct workflow requirements. The GR-2.2 is equipped with a two-switch interface for two portion settings per side, while the GR-2.3 offers expanded versatility with a three-switch control panel, allowing for three precise batch sizes per hopper. Both models feature vertically mounted grinding discs for longevity and an adjustable brew basket holder to accommodate various professional setups. With a slim 9.25-inch footprint, these grinders provide a space-saving, dual-service solution without compromising on the industrial durability FETCO is known for.

Versatility in Every Grind: Comparing the FETCO GR-2.2 and GR-2.3

When your coffee programme demands variety—such as offering both House Blend and Decaf—the FETCO GR-2 Dual Hopper Series is the industry benchmark for efficiency. While the GR-2.2 and GR-2.3 share the same robust dual-hopper architecture and precision engineering, the right choice for your business depends on how many different serving sizes you need to offer for each bean type.

The Core Distinction: Customising Your Volume

The fundamental difference between these two professional models lies in the programmable batch flexibility for each of the two hoppers.

• FETCO GR-2.2: This model features a two-switch interface per side. It is the perfect solution for busy environments that stick to two standard brewing volumes (e.g., a "Small" and "Large" carafe) for both types of coffee beans.

• FETCO GR-2.3: Providing maximum operational freedom, this model features a three-switch interface per side. It is designed for high-demand cafés or catering operations that require three distinct batch sizes (e.g., Small, Medium, and Large) to match various thermal dispensers or air pots.

Industrial Performance and Build

Beyond the control panel, both models are built with the same professional-grade internals. They feature dual 5 lb (2.3 kg) removable hoppers that are dishwasher safe, making cleaning and bean rotation effortless. Performance is driven by a heavy-duty 0.74 HP motor (on the 230V CE version) paired with FETCO's signature vertical slicing-type burrs. This combination ensures a cool, uniform grind profile that preserves the delicate aromatic oils of the coffee, regardless of the batch size selected.

Which Dual-Hopper Model Suits You?

The choice is a matter of workflow. The GR-2.2 offers a simplified, "less-is-more" approach that reduces user error in fast-paced settings. However, the GR-2.3 provides the ultimate "future-proof" setup; even if you only use two sizes now, the third button allows for future menu expansions or larger catering orders. With a slim 9.25-inch width, both units deliver dual-bean versatility without occupying excessive counter space.
