Lo utilizó diariamente para preparar café por las mañanas, hay que moler y luego agitar un poco y volver a moler para lograr que el grano quede mejor, de lo contrario quedarán fragmentos de café carentes de uniformidad.

No es desmontable por lo que se complica lo de la limpieza, es solo con un paño húmedo pero es muy bueno para el precio y no es tan ruidoso.

I love how easy it is to use and the right size

Size: I purchased this based on it being a smaller grinder as it is my backup grinder. We have a large burr grinder we use for espresso and it’s a pain to change the grind once it’s “dialed in” so we purchased this for French press and pour over ideas. It suits our purpose quite well and can hold about 3oz of beans without being over full. I read some reviewers say 10 Tbs another said 1/2 a cup. I would agree with those assessments too. It’s compact and the cord storage built in at the bottom is a big plus.
Design: I wanted a stainless interior and I am glad I got this unit. As another user mentioned, the lid fitting over the top of the grinder rather than tucking inside is a plus in my book too. It makes for easier clean up and seems like a better long term design. The clear lid and stainless interior make it easy to see what’s going on inside, whereas if the bottom were black plastic as is the case with many grinders, it would be harder to discern.
Grind: as advertised, this is not an adjustable grind. However, the longer you grind, the finer the grind will become. One user mentioned that the grind was inconsistent with some being finer and some coarser. I can concur with this, but with most grinders like this, that is par for the course. My solution for this is to slowly turn the unit upside down while grinding which shifts the contents and uses gravity to help distribute the contents for a more even grind. Of course, if you do this keep your hand on the lid so you don’t spill 🙂
Value: this is exactly what I was hoping for and I like how it works and looks. I did see the reviews that mentioned they had issues down the road so I will be sure to follow up if I experience any issues. I always appreciate feedback about small appliances as time wears on because it’s important to know if the unit will last for a year, or a month.
Other uses: worth noting that we also wanted to use this for spices and given the ability to grind to a fine dust, it will be great for star anise and other hard spices we like to use. The stainless chamber will make it easy to clean out when using between spices and coffee.

The grinder has been working fine for months. Is the ground coffee coarser than store bought ground? Yes. Did it break? Not if don’t over work the motor like instructions warn you. Does it compact a bit to the bottom? Yes but what do you want for 30 bucks, just loosen when emptying. Start with whole beans, make ground, the grounds make great coffee and that’s why you would buy it.

I bought this 2 and one-half years ago. This is a review about a machine that is still working great. Every day I put a cup of coffee beans into the grinder and 25 seconds later it is ground beans ready to pour water over to become 8 cups of coffee. After grinding I empty the very last grains out and put it back on the shelf. It makes producing 8 cups of coffee very easy, and it has been doing that for 2.5 years. And it looks like it is going to last at least another 2.5 years. At this price that is $4.00 a year.

You get what you pay for. By that I mean it’s nothing special or fancy. It does a great job and lasts a long time. I wipe it out every day, after I use it, and it always looks like new. If you want a basic grinder, get it. If you’re looking for something special that you can put out in a fancy kitchen, you should probably raise your grinder budget.

This is a simple grinder and it works great. No complaints.
Melody Petersen –
There is nothing like fresh ground coffee. And this great little coffee grinder. Works really fast and does an amazing job.
Janie –
Oh so quiet compared to old one that died. Performs smoothly and quickly.

This is replacement of my Capresso grinder which I had for years, exactly the same as this new one but white. I use it for spices only, not coffee. It grinds well and I can always grind to suit, depending on how fine I need the spice.
