Consistent, uniform and fresh grinding for espresso machines, drip coffee makers, French press and pour-over brewers. The Capresso Coffee Burr Grinder with 17 grind settings allows for adjustment from coarse to fine for any brewing method. Grinding fresh whole bean coffee immediately before brewing is the first step to achieving the best tasting coffee at home. Ground coffee interacts with the air around it and, within hours, loses a great deal of flavor and aroma. The longer the ground coffee is exposed to air the more flavor is lost and the rich, full-bodied taste of the coffee cannot be obtained. The timer can be set to grind for 2 to 12 cups of brewed coffee. When grinding in the finest position, less coffee per second will pass through the grinder than when grinding in the coarsest setting. The amount of ground coffee varies quite a bit depending on how coarse or fine you grind and whether you use light, dry beans or dark, oily beans. After grinding a few times, you will find the correct grind amount position for the amount of coffee you want to grind. Remember, you can always stop the grinding process by simply pushing the on/off button.

It was compact and the price was right but the coarsest grind was too fine and had too much powder residue for a French Press. I returned it. It would be fine for any other use.

Grinds uniformly and quickly. I love that I can grind a lot of coffee in such a short amount of time. So much better than my small blade grinder! Plus... if you want to grind fresh everyday... you can leave the beans in the hopper and grind the exact amount that you need. Great price too!

Been using mine for about six months and it still going strong. We drink a lot of coffee around here. If I have to buy a couple of these a year it's worth it.

Grinder was terrible- Stopped and would not start again. Difficult to get ground coffee out of dispenser, the 1 time it worked. Don't waste your money and time. Junk with a capital "J".

I chose this coffee bean grinder because we drink a lot of coffee in the morning and it had a larger grounds container. The first thing I noticed is how loud it is and then how messy. There is no way to not get the grounds everywhere! The grounds stick to the sides of the container so you can't tell how full it is and then when you open it they go everywhere. Last but not least, I only bought it a month ago and it quit working. It stopped right in the middle of grinding the beans and it's just dead. Worst grinder I have ever purchased. :(
