The grinder group has a casing and a grinder which can be fixedly coupled, the grinder having a grinding surface that is inserted inside the central hole of the counter-grinder and that cooperates with the opposing grinding surface of the counter-grinder when grinding a product. The grinder group is arranged straddling the counter-grinder with the casing being arranged outside the counter-grinder. The casing can rotate with respect to the counter-grinder and is axially mobile with respect to the counter-grinder between two or more reciprocal adjustment positions. The grinder and the counter-grinder are made in a substantially rigid material and the casing is made from a substantially flexible material.
