Slow Feeder Metal
The Slow Feeder Metal is CremaLoop’s aluminium-bodied, battery-powered slow feeder. A rotating feeder disc meters coffee beans onto your grinder’s burrs a few at a time, with intelligent motor control — stopping beans from “popcorning”, lowering retention, and giving a steadier, more repeatable grind.

What it does
Section titled “What it does”- Stops popcorning. Beans are released onto the burrs gradually instead of all at once — quieter, cleaner, more consistent.
- Lowers retention. Less bean chaos means fewer grounds left behind between doses, so single-dosing is more accurate.
- Variable speed. A 0–9 dial sets the feed rate, with an automatic anti-stall routine that clears bean jams on its own.
- Charge it first — see Charging & battery.
- Fit the adapter for your grinder — Install on your grinder · Grinder compatibility.
- First use — fill, seat the glass, and run — First use.
