What customers say
This grinder offers an accessible entry point to burr grinding, impressing many users with improved flavor quality relative to its affordable price. Its operation is straightforward and the design is compact. However, significant user friction centers on consistency and longevity. Many report that achieving a uniform grind, especially for espresso, is difficult due to excessive fines. Static electricity also creates messy daily use. While the initial value is appealing, durability concerns are common, with reports of motor or gear failure occurring within the first year and a half of regular use. This positions the unit as a temporary solution rather than a long term reliable appliance.
Know before you buy
Yes, the grinder features 20 settings that range from very fine to coarse. While it is capable of espresso-fine grinds, keep in mind that results may vary depending on your specific espresso machine's requirements.
The burrs are removable, which makes maintenance straightforward. You can easily take them out to brush away residual oils and grounds, preventing old coffee from affecting the flavor of your next brew.
Yes, the unit includes a quantity selector that allows you to grind for up to 20 cups. It will automatically shut off once the selected amount has been processed, ensuring consistent portions every time.
Absolutely. The coarse end of the 20-setting range is specifically designed to produce the larger, consistent particles required for a proper French press brew.
Burr grinders are preferred over blade grinders because they crush the beans into uniform sizes rather than chopping them unevenly. This consistency ensures a more balanced extraction and helps preserve the natural aroma of your coffee beans.
