The main difference between the Smart Grinder Pro and the Dose Control Pro from Breville is the level of grind time control. The Smart Grinder Pro can be adjusted in 0.2-second increments, whereas the Dose Control Pro can only be adjusted in 1-second increments. We recommend the Smart Grinder Pro over the Dose Control Pro because of its superior fine-tuning capability. It costs only $40 more than the Dose Control Pro.
