A Great Inexpensive Burr Grinder!
I love the Krups Flat Burr Coffee Grinder with 17 grind settings, and Iâm thrilled to have it again after owning one for 8 years! This grinder is fantastic for all types of coffee, from espresso to drip coffee, thanks to its wide range of grind settings. The 7oz airtight bean hopper ensures the beans stay fresh, and I never have to worry about overheating as I noticed with other grinders from reading their reviews. The ability to choose between 2 to 12 cups allows me to grind the perfect amount of coffee for any occasion, and the auto shut-off feature is incredibly convenient. The noise level is low-pitched and unlike others so it is not a nuisance.What I appreciate the most is how easy it is to clean and its compactness so it can be easily stored away in a cupboard as it measures under 10.5″ tall and less than 5″ wide. Keeps your kitchen counters less cluttered. Yes, it does not have the “static-free” receptacle but I think that is a bit gimmicky. In my opinion, I’m not so bothered by a little bit of coffee dust on my counter because inevitably you are still going to clean up. After 9 years of daily use, my previous Krups burr grinder still worked well, even though the on button had come loose â it was still operational. I had ordered a conical burr grinder as a replacement from a different company with an LED display; however, it malfunctioned from the beginning. That was a sign to stick with a simple yet reliable burr grinder I have known to enjoy over the years. Now, Iâve replaced it with the same Krups model as before because of its reliability and consistency in grind (see the espresso grind in my pictures). It’s easy to clean and comes with a compact brush. Plus, itâs very affordable on Amazon for all the features it offers. I highly recommend this grinder to any coffee lover!

I woke up to a first world problem today
Got up this morning to realize I hadnât ground the beans and set up the coffee maker with water & ground beans to start my day. Pushed the grind button on the Krups grinder and watched the button fall into the cavity of the grinder. I knew it was loose and we would probably need to replace it soon. I didnât realize soon was today. So I got out the 35-year-old Bialetti I bought at Zabars which we keep in reserve for situations like this. It still works but is noisy. Fixed my coffee and headed to the computer to look for a replacement for the Krups. My wife reminded me we bought this one from Amazon years ago. It works fine, or it did until today, a little noisy, some static electricity, grinds get on the counter, but overall it worked pretty well. I looked to see when we purchased it and found it was 2007. We paid $60 then for it, so thatâs about $5.45 per year or 1.4c per day, we use it at least every day. I looked through the various options of burr grinders Amazon offers. No more Brevilleâs for me, I made that mistake once. On the 2nd page I found the same model as we have, looked at the reviews, some were pretty bad, some not so bad and some good. I noticed the current price on this model is about half what we paid 11 years ago. So I ordered another one. If it doesnât work Iâll be back on this site again for an update on my new Krups purchase. If it doesnât work Iâll be no worse off financially than ordering 2-3 glasses of wine at a bar.

Defective Grinding Mechanism
I have been using this exact same product in my home in Europe for four years, and bought one here in the States for a feel-at-home experience. The European variant feels more tightly put together and is quieter. It also grinds perfectly for espresso, two notches above the finest setting, and changes grinds easily, working precisely and consistently. The machine I just purchased in the US can’t grind for espresso even at the finest setting and the quality of the grind, at different settings, seems to vary each time I try the machine. Reading other similar complaints (the grind is either too coarse or too fine). Krups might be suspected of taking a different approach to the US market than it does in Europe, where buyers simply won’t put up with sloppy, inconsistent execution. Numerous complaints in other reviews about the tedium of trying to get a Krups item repaired leave me no choice but reluctantly to return this item.

I’ve had the old style blade grinders and recently a burr hand grinder.I saw this on sale and grabbed it. Very happy with it. Easy to use and clean.Today I tried the handful of rice through it to clean for the first time and it worked great. I’ve put about 6 lbs of coffee beans through this in the 3 weeks I’ve had it and it seems that it should last a good long while.Overall very happy.

Viele EinstellmÃ¶glichkeiten, hier wird sicherlich jeder seine “Einstellung” finden. Vom Preis finde ich die KaffeemÃ¼hle gerechtfertigt, ist bereits schon unsere 2. KaffeemÃ¼hle. Unsere erste KaffeemÃ¼hle (gleiches Modell) hat viele Jahre gehalten.

Purchased this to replace the built in grinder on our coffee machine, this works better than the built in grinder ever did.

Edit 17/Oct/2018Finalmente ha dejado de funcionar correctamente este molino, asi que lo mas logico era volver a comprar otro igual. Entre aqui y veo que el precio en apenas 2 aÃ±os ha subido de $812 a $2,113, lo cual me parecio excesivo. Asi que lo busque en Amazon USA y lo acabo de comprar con envio standard por $1,100==================== Review Original ====================Compre este molino para un familiar. Yo tengo uno identico que compre en 2010 y a la fecha funciona perfectamente. Muelo entre 3 y 4 veces al dia cafe para 4 tazas de espresso.Es una pena que no todos los productos de Krups sean tan confiables como este molino. Ademas tiene la ventaja que una vez que encuentras el grado del molido y el volumen, se vuelve una tarea super simple presionar el boton y tenerlo listo cuando haces cafe. Otras marcas/modelos son mas manuales, y depende que tanto tiempo lo mantengas funcionando para que quede de un grosor deseado. Con este molino no tienes este problema.En mi caso me ha funcionado a la perfeccion por bastante tiempo. Excelente producto y altamente recomendable.
