Good All Around Coffee Bean Grinder?

[schendela]

Hello everyone!
I was wondering what is a good all around coffee grinder.
Anything from espresso grinding to french press grinding. Is there a generic "hits all points" grinder out there?
Thank You!

I used to use a little electric one from wal mart until it broke but I'm saving up to eventually get a manual Hario. I've heard a lot of good things about them.

I agree with the previous response, Hario grinders are really nice, I saw many positive reviews about them :star: Mr. Coffee and Hamilton ones are good too, I used the second one for a long time and had no problems with it
Also a very cool decision is a coffee maker with grinder like in this list on Cozzy for example, they're very comfortbale for those who don't like to prepare beans separately (as in my case, I was always lazy with this :images. For example, I got such Haier one and it's really a nice thing in my case :coffee1: However comapring to the separate grinders such combo coffee makers are very expensive, the one can cost 500$ and more :decaf:

For espresso grind you need a grinder that grind fine but all grinders cannot do the fine task very well. so it is good to have a special coffee grinder for espresso if you regularly drink espresso.

Why grinders can't do fine well? I thought electric burr grinders are mostly pretty good? Only the hand grinders have consistency issue right?

Hello @schendela maybe this great content from the business insider can help you identify which coffee grinder you should purchase.

I don't think a good grinder would be necessarily expensive. It just needs to be consistent right?

There's this new concept of rechargeable electronic grinder that is quite promising. They have a demo here:

But wait till 30'' or so there comes the real demo quite a funny video actually.

What concerns Hario grinders, the quality of these little friends is pretty good. They do not cost an earth, grind coffee very well and are made from high quality materials.
For instance, coffee bean grinder Hario “Olive wood” is a really comfortable tool to reach the highest quality ground coffee results. Ceramic grinder burr is durable and long-lasting.
Ground coffee tank is coated with an olive tree wood layer. The capacity of ground coffee container is 30 grams. Grinding level can be easily adjusted with a special nut. What is more, this coffee bean grinder's maintenance is very simple. Ground coffee tank is easily removable, which makes it possible to clean it thoroughly.

On the other hand, De'Longhi automatic coffee grinders seem to be a smart choice. For instance, coffee grinder De'Longhi "KG89" costs only around 59,00 GBP, but it has a lot to offer. This millstone coffee grinder would become a trusted helper in a kitchen. You only need to add beans, choose your preferred grinding levels (depends on the coffee preparation), set desired amount from 2 to 12 cups and press a button. In a few moments you will feel enchanting coffee aroma! Furthermore, this grinder is very safe to use because it has a special “Dual Safe” system – it turns off automatically once you take out beans or grounds container.

Hope this information will help You choose the best grinder to satisfy Your needs!

I choose burr coffee grinders over blade ones. Some of my favorite affordable burr coffee grinders are Capresso Infinity, Baratza Encore and Bodum Bistro.
