Powering Hundreds of Businesses Including:

The Leon 800 is a medium- to high-volume commercial espresso grinder from Ceado's Leon Venezia line. Its 83 mm flat burrs produce up to 4.2 g/s, while PFA portafilter activation, two timed doses, and Steady Lock support fast, repeatable café workflow.

Product Features

83mm Flat Burrs

PFA Portafilter Activation starts the selected single or double timed dose when the portafilter is inserted, supporting hands-free workflow.

On-Demand Productivity

An 83 mm flat steel burr set delivers up to 4.2 g/s at 60 Hz, reducing grind time during peak service.

PFA Portafilter Activation

The Steady Lock System maintains the selected burr spacing under working load, helping preserve the dial-in across a busy shift.

Steady Lock System

A 500 W induction motor with thermal protection supports demanding on-demand grinding on the U.S. 110–120 V model.

Standard Portafilter Fixture

The standard fixture accepts conventional and bottomless portafilters and holds them during grinding, freeing the barista for another task.

Touch Display Controls

Two programmable timed doses, manual top-off mode, a touch display, and stepless micrometric adjustment keep operation direct and repeatable.

The Coffeeionado Take

Who's It For:

  • Medium- to high-volume cafés needing a fast primary espresso grinder.
  • Busy restaurants, bakeries, and hospitality bars that want simple timed dosing and hands-free portafilter activation.
  • Operators seeking an 83 mm commercial platform with a compact 178 mm-wide footprint.

It's Right For You If:

  • You expect roughly 250–350 espresso doses per day and want 4.2 g/s output to shorten dose times.
  • You prefer two straightforward timed presets, manual top-offs, and a large 1.6 kg hopper over a more complex grind-by-weight workflow.

Things to Consider:

  • Dosing is time-based rather than grind-by-weight, so dose calibration should be checked after bean or grind-setting changes.
  • The 1.6 kg hopper and 620 mm height require adequate overhead clearance and favor hopper-fed café workflow.
  • This listing is for the earlier 500 W, 178 × 212 × 620 mm chassis; newer Leon 800 revisions use different dimensions and power specifications.

Our Take:

The Leon 800 is the throughput choice in this pair: its 83 mm burrs and 4.2 g/s output make it appropriate as a primary grinder in a genuinely busy café. The attraction is Ceado's proven PFA and Steady Lock workflow in the value-focused Leon line.

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 90 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 the customer's 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 the customer's 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 the customer's 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 the customer's responsibility.

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


What to Expect on Install Day

Getting a commercial espresso machine delivered is one thing. Getting it actually running — plumbed, programmed, and pulling properly — is another. Here's what happens when the technician comes out.

Before the appointment: Site preparation will be confirmed before technicians make it out. Once your machine ships, we'll coordinate scheduling with you and assign a local certified technician. Before they arrive, make sure your space is ready: the machine's permanent location should be determined, your water line and drain access should be in place, and your electrical supply should match the machine's requirements. 

On the day The technician will handle the physical installation of the machine — positioning, water line connection, and drain setup. Once it's plumbed and powered, they'll run through the setup and basic programming: boiler pressure, shot parameters, and confirming that water flows correctly through the group heads and steam wands. Some basic training will be provided, they'll pull test shots to verify the machine is operating within spec.


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.
