Powering Hundreds of Businesses Including:

A high-volume bar requires equipment that maintains its composure when the line reaches the sidewalk. The Leon 800 is built for the operator who knows that grind drift is the primary enemy of a consistent morning rush. By utilizing the Steady Lock System, the machine keeps its burrs at a fixed distance regardless of thermal expansion, removing a variable that usually requires constant intervention. It is the kind of reliability that allows you to focus on the guest rather than the adjustment collar.

Product Features

83mm Flat Burrs

Equipped with 83mm flat burrs specifically sized for espresso grinding, the Leon 800 handles the throughput and consistency cafés require during peak service. The large flat burr profile is a core spec that supports steady dosing performance.

On-Demand Productivity

The Leon 800 on-demand espresso grinder is built for high-turnover establishments, delivering consistent on-demand grinding tailored to continual service. Its compact footprint fits a variety of coffee environments while keeping workflow moving during busy shifts.

PFA Portafilter Activation

Integrated PFA Portafilter Activation streamlines dispensing: select the dose and insert the portafilter to trigger automatic dosing, with the PFA active even when the screen is in standby. If you need an extra shot, manual mode can be activated while the portafilter remains inserted.

Steady Lock System

The Steady Lock System ensures a constant distance between the burrs under any working stress condition, helping the set grind size remain stable across continuous use. That stability reduces the need for frequent grind re-adjustments during service.

Standard Portafilter Fixture

Includes the standard portafilter fixture compatible with bottomless/naked models so ground coffee is dosed directly into the portafilter. The fixture leaves the barista’s hands free for tamping or multi-tasking during high-volume periods.

Touch Display Controls

A straightforward touch display provides quick, intuitive control for dose selection and operation, minimizing staff training and speeding order throughput. The clear interface helps maintain speed and accuracy in fast-paced environments.

The Coffeeionado Take

Who's It For:

  • Mid-Volume Specialty Cafés — 83mm flat burrs at 3.5 g/sec with a 1.6kg hopper. Built for cafés that need commercial throughput without the footprint of the largest grinders
  • Leon Fans Who Want Italian Engineering at a Competitive Price — The Leon 800 delivers 83mm burr performance at a price point below the Mazzer Major or Ceado E37S. Same Italian build, different brand premium
  • Operators Who Want Programmable Dosing Without Overpaying — Electronic dosing at a competitive price. You get the feature without paying for the name

It's Right For You If:

  • You need 83mm burr performance for your café but do not want to pay Mazzer or Ceado prices — the Leon 800 delivers comparable grind quality at a lower price point.
  • Your volume is 100–200 drinks daily and you want programmable dosing to keep things consistent across staff.

Things to Consider:

  • At 11.0kg, this is lighter than most 83mm commercial grinders. That is a plus for installation but may mean less stability during extended grinding.
  • The Leon brand is less established than Mazzer or Ceado — parts availability and service network may be more limited depending on your location.
  • 500W motor is adequate for mid-volume but may show strain during sustained peak-hour grinding compared to higher-wattage alternatives.

Our Take:

The Leon 800 is the value play in the 83mm commercial grinder space — Italian build, programmable dosing, competitive price. If you want commercial performance without the premium of established brands, this is worth a serious look.

1 Year Warranty ($99+ Value)

When investing in coffee equipment, peace of mind is worth its weight in gold. That’s why we proudly offer a 1-year warranty with every coffee grinder purchase, valued over $99. This warranty is your guarantee against manufacturer's defects and ensures that all parts are covered for an entire year from the date of purchase. We understand that our customers deserve the very best.

Don't let uncertainty overshadow your love for freshly brewed coffee – take advantage of this limited-time offer and experience unparalleled assurance with your next coffee machine purchase.

Paid Shipping ($69+ Value)

At Coffeeionado, we understand the frustration of hidden costs when making online purchases. This is why we're thrilled to announce that we now cover all shipping, freight, and handling charges for our premium coffee equipment. Gone are the days of considering additional fees as you add items to your cart.

Large Touchscreen

The Leon 800 comes with a large touchscreen display to easily navigate the settings and also pull your programmed shots.


Steady Lock System

Unique to Ceado burrs  the steady lock grinding system ensures that under any condition your coffee grinder maintains a consistent distance between the burrs. This strong Italian espresso grinder improves consistency and eliminates one variable in your quest towards the perfect espresso. 

Easy Adjustable Burrs

Soft to the touch, easy to turn and precise as a bezel watch divided into 3 areas: Espresso, Moka Pot and Filter. At the end of each stroke, the easy to open button is activated, which allows you to open and quickly clean the grinding chamber.

83mm Flat Burrs

The size of the burrs in coffee grinders, such as the 83mm ones, is crucial for achieving high-quality coffee. These larger burrs create a consistent grind by breaking down coffee beans into uniform particles, which significantly impacts the taste of your brew.

Maintaining the delicate taste of your coffee beans is essential, and larger burrs rotate at a slower pace, minimizing heat production and safeguarding the vital oils in the beans. This ensures that your espresso shot is rich in flavor and aroma. With their durable build and extended performance, larger burrs like the 83mm ones have a longer lifespan compared to smaller ones, ensuring a flavorful and predictable coffee experience.

Hands Free Operations

With the standard portafilter fixture, compatible with bottomless/naked models, the ground coffee can be dosed into the portafilter while leaving the barista’s hands free.

Overheating Protection

This Italian espresso grinder comes with thermal protection and has a induction motor which keeps the machine running reliably while also preventing overheating.

Compact and Reliable

Compact and efficient, the coffee grinder features a sturdy light-alloy housing, an induction motor with thermal protection, and a polycarbonate hopper. Crafted with top-quality materials for optimal reliability, it seamlessly integrates into your workspace without taking up much room. This allows for convenient on-demand coffee grinding, including decaffeinated options, alongside your main grinder.

The grinder sports a durable cast steel housing, a powerful 5.5 amp motor, a convenient on/off switch, and an adjustable grinding wheel. The coffee grinder also features a convenient solid state start switch and comes with a user-friendly manual.

Stepless - Infinite Grind Size Adjustment

Stepless grinders differ from stepped grinders in that they do not have preset grind settings; instead, they feature a collar that you can rotate to adjust the grind size. This collar is usually marked with incremental lines or notches, providing a way to monitor the grind size.

The Brand: Leon Venezia

Leon Venezia is a professional coffee grinder brand by Ceado, designed especially for a traditional, price-conscious professional audience who prefer on-demand and doser grinders. The brand pays tribute to Venice’s rich heritage and is proudly Made in Italy, embodying a blend of tradition and innovation in coffee grinding technology.

Product FAQ

What type and size of burrs does the Leon 800 On Demand Espresso Grinder use, and are they flat or conical?

The Leon 800 On Demand Espresso Grinder is equipped with commercial‑grade flat burrs (typically 64–83 mm depending on the configuration). Flat burrs are preferred in many cafés for their consistency and clarity in espresso extraction.

How long do the burrs typically last, and how often will I need to replace them?

Burr life depends on usage and bean hardness, but in a typical café setting you can expect around 650–1,000 kg of coffee before needing replacement. In lower‑volume environments, this often translates to several years of use. You should replace the burrs once you notice slower grind times, more fines, or difficulty dialing in consistent shots.

Is the Leon 800 a stepless grinder, and how precise are the grind adjustments for dialing in espresso?

Yes, the Leon 800 uses a stepless (infinitely adjustable) grind collar, allowing you to make very fine incremental changes. This level of precision is ideal for dialing in espresso recipes and compensating for changes in beans, roast dates, and ambient conditions.

Can the Leon 800 grind for both espresso and filter coffee, or is it dedicated to espresso only?

The Leon 800 is optimized as an espresso grinder, with a grind range and adjustment mechanism focused on fine, repeatable espresso settings. While it can be opened up toward coarser settings, it is not designed as an all‑purpose grinder for regular filter or French press use and performs best when dedicated to espresso.

What types of environments is this grinder suitable for (café, restaurant, office, home)?

The Leon 800 is designed primarily for commercial and high‑volume environments such as cafés, coffee bars, and restaurants. It is also well‑suited for serious prosumer or light‑commercial use in offices or brew bars that require rapid, consistent espresso grinding throughout the day.

Does the Leon 800 use timed dosing, manual dosing, or grind‑by‑weight operation?

The Leon 800 is an on‑demand grinder that offers programmable timed dosing, allowing you to set distinct grind times for single and double shots. It also supports manual dosing via a continuous run mode. It is not a grind‑by‑weight grinder and does not include a built‑in scale.

Is it hands‑free to use, and what portafilter sizes does the holder fit?

Yes, the Leon 800 is designed for hands‑free operation with an adjustable portafilter fork. It securely holds standard commercial 58 mm portafilters and can typically be adjusted to accommodate most standard spouted and bottomless portafilters used in professional espresso setups.

How fast is the grinder, and can it keep up with busy service periods?

The Leon 800 is a high‑speed on‑demand grinder, generally capable of grinding a standard double espresso dose in just a few seconds (exact speed depends on burr size and grind setting). It is engineered to keep up with back‑to‑back orders in busy cafés and restaurant bars without significant delays or overheating.

How does free installation work?

We want to make your purchase as smooth as possible and will pay the installation via rebate on commercial espresso machines. This includes commercial machines with more than 1 group head and 220V.

If the certified installer needed is over 1.5 hours away then we will pay for the installation call (and install up to the value suggested on page minus call fee). Travel will be paid by customer. Inquire if you have any questions about your location.


Please note, any discounts subject to void the paid installation offer.

At Coffeeionado, professional installation is included with qualifying espresso machine purchases. Our goal is to make the process as seamless as possible — from coordinating the technician to getting your machine up and running on day one.


Which Machines Qualify

Free professional installation is included with all espresso machines of 2 groups or more where indicated on the product listing. This policy applies to espresso machines only and does not cover other coffee equipment such as grinders, brewers, or accessories.

If you are unsure whether your machine qualifies, contact us before purchasing and we'll confirm.


What's Included

  • Travel and labor costs for installation within the technician's service area (up to 2 hours of travel)
  • Setup, basic programming, and commissioning of the equipment
  • Scheduling during regular business hours, Monday through Friday
  • Associated taxes and fees related to the installation itself

Installation must be completed within 30 days of delivery of the equipment. The installation benefit lapses after this window and cannot be reinstated.


How Installation Is Arranged

Depending on your purchase, installation is handled one of two ways:

Arranged directly — In many cases, Coffeeionado or the manufacturer will coordinate and pay the technician on your behalf. We will contact you after your order is processed to schedule the visit.

Reimbursement — In some cases, you may be asked to arrange the installation locally using an authorized technician and submit a rebate form for reimbursement. Once approved, the covered amount will be refunded to the original payment method used for your order.

We will confirm which arrangement applies to your purchase at the time of order confirmation. If you have questions before purchasing, contact us and we'll walk you through it.


What's Not Included

The following are outside the scope of the installation policy and remain the customer's responsibility:

  • Travel or callout costs beyond the first 2 hours of the technician's travel time — if your location falls outside the local service area, the overage is your responsibility
  • Water filtration systems and installation materials — including plumbing fittings, tubing, plugs, outlets, and any other ancillary components required to prepare the site
  • Electrical or plumbing work — site preparation must be completed before the technician arrives
  • Training on equipment operation — installation covers commissioning only, not barista or operational training
  • False start or callout fees if the technician arrives and the site is not ready for installation

Important: If a technician arrives and cannot complete the installation because the site is unprepared, you will be responsible for any callout or false start fee charged by the technician. However, your installation benefit remains intact — the visit will be rescheduled at no additional cost to your policy.


Water Filtration Requirement

Water filtration must be installed and operational before or at the time of installation. This is not optional — operating a commercial espresso machine without proper filtration will void the manufacturer's warranty. If filtration is not in place at the time of the technician's visit, installation may need to be rescheduled and the callout fee will be your responsibility.

If you need guidance on water filtration requirements for your machine, contact us before scheduling your installation.


Service Area

Installation coverage is tied to the manufacturer's authorized technician service area, generally within a 1.5-hour radius of the nearest certified technician. If your location falls outside this area, Coffeeionado will make reasonable efforts to arrange a local authorized technician, but travel costs beyond the 2-hour coverage limit remain your responsibility.

Not sure if you're in a service area? Contact us before purchasing and we'll check your location.


After Installation

Once your machine is installed, we'll provide referrals for authorized service technicians in your area for ongoing maintenance and repairs. Coffeeionado offers lifetime support on all equipment we sell — we're here long after the install is done.


Governing Terms

This installation policy forms part of your agreement with Coffeeionado and is subject to our Terms of Sale and Terms of Service. In the event of any conflict, the Terms of Service governs.

Can I pick up the machine at your store?

We do not have a showroom or storefront for customer pickups, so orders cannot be picked up directly from us. That said, there is an exception for La Spaziale and La Pavoni products, you can contact us to arrange.

However, if you'd prefer, we can arrange to have your machine shipped to a local freight terminal/location for pickup instead. Let us know your city/state (or ZIP code), and we’d be happy to check the nearest terminal options for you.
