Hello guys, I have been taking advice from this forum for a while now and now I am finally happy to be a member.

I saved some money and was able to buy A bezzera machine and with the bundle it came this unknown burr grinder. Can anybody help me identify the brand and/or model number? And maybe quality? What's the dial for? How fine the grind? Thank you in advance.

Additional pictures here since I can only post one:

Are there any internal components that would help identify this grinder? Maybe the brand of the motor or maybe some kind of code I found inside the housing? Thanks.

In your last picture, the label almost looks like it has a Rancilio logo on it.

Nice job, good observation. I had no idea the Rancilio logo looked like that. I went to their website and I cannot find of their discontinued products. I also took it apart given that it was easy enough and could not find any other info inside. Thanks

I contacted Rancilio today, and I was told that the double R logo is a generic logo that many companies use. In addition, they told me that the grinder is not a Rancilio and that they had no idea what it was.
