Lelit Fred Tempo
CoffeeSpecs does not sell and does not show shop prices: check the price where you buy.
Fred Tempo is the Fred Prima variant with electronic dose management: the same compact base, with 38 mm conical burrs and micrometric stepless adjustment, to which the manufacturer adds the ability to set the dosing time, stated as adjustable "from 2 to 20 seconds" on the official product page. The body is stainless steel, with a coffee chute, a filterholder support and a dispensing button.
The stated hopper holds 250 grams, the same as the Fred Prima. The given dimensions are slightly larger, however, at 14x22x34 cm, for a weight of 3 kg against the Fred Prima's 2.8 kg: a difference consistent with the added electronics for dose management. The European version runs on 230 V 50 Hz.
The official documentation does not give motor wattage, rpm, the exact burr material beyond the conical geometry, or a stated grind range for methods other than espresso.
