As you probably know, the advantage of a little burr grinder like this is that it grinds coffee beans into any desired coarseness without smashing them to dust and creating a lot of aroma/wasting heat while doing this.
The disadvantage is that it takes a bit of time, but it reminds me of how we used to grind coffee 45 years ago (wish we had kept that grinder!) and doesnt bother me much. Its a bit like meditation, listening to the gentle crashing and breathing in the aroma.
One can dial in the grade from dust to small grains. I tend to grind it on the finer side for my moka pot. Too fine and it takes near forever, and starts to warp the moka filter plate. About 2 notches up it is pretty perfect.
Comes with two attractive little glass containers, a rubber base for one of them to keep the clatter down, as well as a little cleaning brush.
Hoping for gravel free coffee beans and a long happy grind.
Works really well
