Great well made product! Heavy duty like machines of the past

 

I spent hours doing research before purchasing this grinder. The more I read, the harder it became to find an affordable, well made grinder that was good for espresso. I roast my own beans & wanted a quality affordable grinder to help finish the...

Excellent Coffie Mill

 

All I have to say is 'Wow'!!! We've been through many coffee mills: blade type and burr grinders. They were just OK, but never very consistent in the grind quality. I did a lot of research before purchasing this one due to the reviews. It's absolutely...

Dissapointing Grind Consistency

 

Very dissapointed in the consistency of the ggrounds. There is a large variabilty in the size of the grounds for a particular setting. Even on the fine setting, 20% of the grounds are large(.5 millimeter), 50% good for drip, and 30% for expresso.

The slow grind and glass containers deliver a wonderfully consistent grind every time. Machine is quiet compared to most others. Very sturdy from solid construction. Counter top messes are a thing of the past. One poor design flaw, the glass hopper is...
