Great Price For a Burr Grinder, But You Get What You Pay For I waited quite some time after purchasing this product before reviewing it, because I wanted to see how it would perform over time. I’ve now been using it every day for nearly a year, and I think I can confidently say that it’s worth purchasing, but with some caveats.First, the “pros”: The price tag is amazing – this is only about $5 bucks more than a cheap blade grinder, and requires significantly less work (which is important in a pre-caffeinated state).

But, that also became a pain: boiling water, pouring it into the press; pressing; cleaning the press; eh…not fun.Then came the big, bright idea – why not just buy an electric grinder? Now, I may not have the palate that some seem to claim on here (many of which probably can’t tell the difference between a cheap cup and one that’s not), but I know what tastes good and bad and what amount of coffee and water works well to produce…
