Ceado Life X Touch Coffee Grinder
PRE-ORDERS OPEN - LANDING IN AUSTRALIA NOVEMBER
One grinder, every way you brew. The Ceado Life X Touch Coffee Grinder is designed for home baristas who enjoy the body of espresso just as much as the clarity of a well-made pour-over. Compact, versatile and thoughtfully engineered in Italy, it brings precision grinding to your daily coffee ritual without needing separate grinders for different brewing methods.
At its heart are Ceado's 50 mm XB50 blind flat burrs, featuring an innovative screwless design that delivers a grinding surface comparable to larger 60 mm burrs. Combined with an optimised grinding chamber, specialised burr geometry and an advanced flap design, the Life X Touch minimises coffee retention and helps manage particle distribution across grind settings. The result is greater flexibility, from rich espresso to clean filter coffee and French press.
The updated 2.4-inch colour touchscreen makes daily grinding straightforward, with two programmable timed doses and a manual grinding mode. You can personalise the display colours and switch between dosing methods to suit your routine. Whether you're making your morning espresso or exploring different beans and brewing recipes, the controls keep the process simple.
The Life X Touch also includes two interchangeable grinding setups. Use the approximately 300 g bean hopper for convenient everyday grinding, or switch to the included single-dose kit with funnel, air pump and cup when changing coffees. With a compact footprint and a 300 W motor, it's a practical addition to the home coffee bench.

How to Use the Ceado Life X Touch – Brewing Style Guide
Use the grinder's numbered 0–9 adjustment dial to find the right grind size for your preferred brewing method. The Life X Touch features stepless grind adjustment, making it easy to fine-tune your settings.
The recommendations below are approximate starting points based on published Life X Touch grind testing. Results will vary depending on coffee beans, roast level and brewing technique, so adjust according to taste and extraction time.
| Brew Method | Grind Adjustment | Grind Texture | Tools Required | Coffee to Water Ratio |
|---|
| Espresso | 0–2 | Fine – Soft, like finely milled salt | Espresso machine, Tamper, Portafilter | 14–20 g (double shot) |
| Moka | 2–3 | Fine-Medium – Soft, like white sugar | Moka Pot | Fill filter basket loosely; do not tamp |
| AeroPress (Classic) | 3–4 | Medium-Fine – Gritty, like fine beach sand | AeroPress, Paper filter, Kettle | 15 g coffee; water to the 1 mark |
| AeroPress (Inverted) | 3–4 | Medium-Fine – Gritty, like fine beach sand | AeroPress, Paper filter, Kettle | 15–18 g coffee; water to suit recipe |
| V60 | 6–8 | Medium – Granular, like coarse sand | V60, Paper filter, Kettle | 15 g coffee per 250 g water |
| Chemex | 7–8 | Medium-Coarse – Rocky sand texture | Chemex, Paper filter, Kettle | 25 g coffee per 400 g water |
| Hoop | 4–6 | Medium – Crumbly, like coarse sand | Ceado Hoop, Paper filter, Kettle | 15 g coffee per 250 g water |
| French Press | 9 | Coarse – Flaky sea salt | French Press, Kettle | 30 g coffee per 500 g water |
Grind Adjustment Tip: For finer grinding, turn the adjustment knob clockwise. For coarser grinding, turn it anticlockwise. Ceado recommends adjusting with the motor running and the grinding chamber empty to prevent coffee becoming trapped between the burrs. Record your preferred settings to make switching between brewing methods easier.
Maintenance & Cleaning Tips
Daily: Switch off and unplug the grinder before cleaning. Wipe away loose grounds from the dispensing chute, external surfaces and single-dose accessories. Use a soft, dry brush to remove coffee residue from accessible areas.
Weekly: Thoroughly clean accessible surfaces, the dosing cup and hopper. The removable hopper can be washed with lukewarm water and mild detergent, then completely dried before refitting. Do not immerse the grinder or dismantle the burr assembly for routine cleaning.
Monthly / As Needed: Clean the grinding chamber using a suitable coffee grinder cleaning product, following the cleaner's instructions. Ceado recommends regular cleaning to remove coffee oils and minimise premature burr wear. Cleaning frequency will depend on usage and the beans being ground.
Important: Always disconnect the grinder from power before cleaning. Avoid introducing water into the grinding chamber or electrical components. Internal servicing and burr replacement should be carried out by a qualified technician.
What else I might need
Coffee Parts Thoughts
The Ceado Life X Touch makes a lot of sense for home baristas who don't want to choose between espresso and filter coffee. The XB50 burr geometry is the interesting part here, designed to produce the body you want from espresso while keeping filter brews clear and balanced.
We particularly like the flexibility of the interchangeable grinding setups. Keep your everyday beans in the hopper, or switch to single dosing when exploring different coffees. The updated touchscreen is a welcome addition, making dose adjustments more intuitive without complicating the process.
Coffee Parts is a co-importer of Ceado in Australia, and the Life X Touch is a good example of the brand's considered approach to grinder design.
Our tip: If you're regularly switching between espresso and filter, record your preferred grind settings to make dialling in easier. Clean the grinder regularly according to Ceado's instructions
