Grinder compatibility and adapters
CremaLoop slow feeders mount on your grinder’s throat with a grinder-specific adapter. Choosing the feeder is the easy part, choosing the adapter is what most questions are about.
All feeder bodies - Metal, Ultra, Pro V1 and Pro V2 - share the same bottom design, so every published grinder adapter fits every feeder. Using one feeder across several grinders is fully supported: buy one feeder plus a stand-alone adapter for each grinder.
How adapters are sold
Section titled “How adapters are sold”Which route you need depends only on whether your grinder is in the table below.
| Your situation | What to order |
|---|---|
| Your grinder is listed below | The feeder as the variant for your grinder. The Slow Feeder Metal includes that grinder’s adapter; on the Ultra it is an optional add-on. |
| You already own a feeder and are adding a second grinder | A stand-alone grinder adapter |
| Your grinder is not listed below | A custom adapter, ordered alongside a stand-alone feeder |
A stand-alone feeder without any adapter is also available, which is what you want if you are only adding a custom adapter.
Adapters exist in metal for some grinders and as printed parts for others. Which one you get is shown on the product page for your grinder, so please check there rather than assuming. New metal adapters are added over time, and we poll the CremaLoop newsletter on which to manufacture next.

Your grinder is not listed
Section titled “Your grinder is not listed”We can almost always make one. Send us two measurements from the grinder inlet:
- Inner diameter - the opening the beans actually drop through.
- Outer diameter - the rim the adapter ring sits on.
Add a photo of the inlet taken from directly above. We will check whether an existing adapter already fits before making a new one, then order it as a custom adapter.
The feeder needs a 56 mm hole in whatever it sits on. That is the only dimension that matters on the feeder side, so an existing lid mod for your grinder can be adapted by opening it up to 56 mm.
Notes for specific grinders
Section titled “Notes for specific grinders”Zerno Z1 and Z2. There are two ways to fit the feeder: directly into the grinder inlet with the stock funnel removed, or into a funnel - the stock one, or a third-party funnel such as Introvertmakes. We usually recommend fitting it directly into the grinder. Do not simply rest the feeder on the stock funnel: it is unstable that way and can fall off.
Weber EG-1. All our feeders work with the EG-1 adapter, but the plastic-bodied feeders sit a little looser on it. The Slow Feeder Metal has a sealing ring that gives a firmer fit, so that is the pairing we recommend.
Why some adapters tilt forward
Section titled “Why some adapters tilt forward”Some adapters are deliberately angled so the feeder leans slightly forward. This is by design, not a fault or a wrong part: the forward tilt stops beans sitting in the feeder holes without dropping through. If your adapter looks tilted, it is meant to.

Section titled “Adapters & accessories”- Grinder adapters (black, and white/silver finishes) - match the adapter to your grinder
