Portable Electric Burr Coffee Grinder,Mcbazel Electric Rechargeable Mini Coffee Grinder with Multiple Grinding Settings-Black

Product Information

There is nothing wrong with that and many people go down that road because it’s a lot more convenient and you do need to dedicate a few minutes to grinding your own coffee by hand with a manual coffee grinder. Blade grinders also produce a lot of variance within a batch. A medium grind will typically have some particles that are finely ground and some that are coarsely ground. There’s nothing you can do to fix this, and it will impact the quality of brew produced from almost any type of coffee maker. Burr Grinders Since the particles fall through the burrs during the grinding process, there is no risk of over-grinding your coffee beans. When a burr grinder is set to a medium grind, it will produce just a uniform, medium grind — no matter how long you run the machine for. Running it for longer will either grind more beans or do nothing at all.

The unit is powered by a 65W (!!), DC motor, rotating at around 200 RPM. Option-O provides a total hours rating for the motor – 600 hours – which means it can handle doing two double shots of espresso a day for around 80 years. If you do 4 doubles a day, that’s 40 years of life in the motor. If you are using different brewing methods, you will need a grinder with a variety of grind settings. Final Verdict It features stainless steel conical burrs that will grind fine enough for Turkish and Espresso, all the way to coarser grinds intended for French press. Blade coffee grinders are very popular because they are cheap and convenient but they don’t give an even and consistent grind fineness.

To keep costs down many things including coffee grinders are made in China but this is manufactured in Japan. Its also designed in Japan and that means they care enough about the quality of the component parts to make it in the same country. If you are grinding coffee just for yourself, you will be ok with smaller grinders. But, if you are in a household of coffee drinkers, search for something with a larger capacity. Settings Many folks spend their entire lives buying only pre-ground coffee, not understanding the importance of freshness or grind size. I’m not ashamed to admit I was there once.

This one is not taller than most of the others on the list, but it’s not particularly wide or deep. It’s hard to find a smaller coffee grinder that has a portafilter fork, either, and this one has both that and a tinted grounds bin. If you are into making espresso, you might just have to deal with the couple of extra inches that this grinder requires. Of course, the small size means it’s great for traveling. You can also remove the handle so that it takes up even less storage space. In that case, this model by Shardor is a great option. You can grind from 2 to 14 cups quantity, depending on how many people you’re making coffee for.DURABLE and STABILITY BURR– 48mm conical burr makes greater grinding efficiency. Internal fixing between the burr and central shaft, no more wobbly burr comeing loose. Consistency of performance grind.

Bear in mind though that you will need to spend a couple of minutes doing the grinding so if convenience and speed are important to you then you may want to consider an electric coffee grinder.

Key considerations

Different brewing methods require coffee grounds of different sizes. This is really important as it affects how your coffee turns out. If you don’t mind spending a few minutes grinding your own coffee beans then a manual grinder will enhance your overall coffee drinking experience because you become more connected to the coffee and that (even if only psychologically) makes it taste better. The Lagom Mini is Option-O’s take on an electrically powered, manual hand crank grinder. They make a well regarded manual grinder, the Remi, but Option-O are best known for their Lagom P64 and P100 grinders, both recognized as some of the best single dosing multipurpose grinders you can buy today. Now, with a bean hopper of that size, this is not the tiniest grinder out there. In fact, it’s one of the largest on this list. But with the dimensions of 8.5x6x15.5 inches, it still counts as one of the smallest grinders on the market. The first is if you use the portafilter holder to grind directly into your group head the grinder can get messy. I recommend getting yourself a dosing cup to grind directly into. This makes grinding coffee a much cleaner experience. The portafilter holder on the grinder is detachable so it is very easy to grind directly into a dosing cup.
