This review is from: Manual Coffee GrinderPros:Cute and quaint. If you want something 4 inches by 4 inches that adds a certain classic flair, you'll probably get what you're hoping for when you see the picture.Will actually grind beans evenly without overheating, bruising, or any other evil that coffee geeks speak of in sub par grinders.Cons:Inherent to manual grinding is a certain slowness and laboriousness of the process.This grinder in particular is small and light. When grinding, you have to hold it down tight to the counter, and even then you'll frequently lift it up instead of turning the crank. Even manually grinding would be easier with something bigger and heavier.I'm finding I have to screw the crank back down after and sometimes during use. It doesn't seem like it's really made to stand up to the force needed to grind a lot of beans, at least not finely. If you've actually got the strength and patience to use it for your everyday grinder, you may have durability issues.The small capacity means a lot of dumping the drawer out if you're doing more than 2 tbsp of beans.The first two beans or so down the chute and the last two beans or so out get ground coarsely (even though all the rest can even be perfect espresso powder). Meaningless to most applications, it can stand in the way of perfection for espresso/Aeropress if you don't dump the first bits out and remember to stop before the last bits come out.The thin porous wood makes it a little difficult to clean, but nowhere near as bad as a big electric grinder with lots of nooks and crannies you can't get to.Bottom Line:I'd say it's suitable for decoration (my wife seems to think so). For camping, power outages, and special occasion high end coffee that just hast to be treated right, it can be a good grinder. For the pursuit of a life of coffee nirvana, it will tease you with the possibilities of the manual hand crank burr grinder, but make you wish for something more practical....
This review is from: Manual Coffee GrinderI was looking for a coffee grinder for some time and finally have chosen this one because it seemed to be quiet and unexpensive. After the package arrived it turned out I was right- it is quiet and also beautifull, made with nice, dark wood. Looks great on the shelf. I should give it 5 stars but it takes forever to mill 3 tblspoons of coffee so I rarely use it- and for this misfit with my character it gets only 4....
This review is from: Manual Coffee GrinderI purchased this coffee grinder to use in my Pre K/K classroom. It's cute and the perfect size. However, the first day that we used it, the inside gears fell out. I was able to reassemble it and hope that it stays together this time....
