Coffee Grinder Coffee Makers

These electric coffee grinders are a staple of coffee connoisseurs. They feature a chamber that feeds beans through conical burrs or flat plates that produce a uniform grind, bringing out maximum flavor. Burr grinders also produce minimal heat during grinding, keeping the aromatic oils of your gourmet beans intact. Precise grind settings range from a coarse grind for preparing a rich cup of French press coffee to the fine grind that produces full-bodied espresso. Plus, an airtight hopper holds beans until you’re ready to grind, cutting one step out of morning routine while keeping your coffee beans fresh and flavorful. Some models also include LCD screens for easy control of the grinding process.

If you’re looking for a coffee grinder that doesn’t take up a lot of counter space, this compact style is for you.

While the grind is less uniform, it’s more than ideal for brewing with your standard coffee maker. Many blade grinders hold enough beans to make 12 cups of coffee, so you can easily brew for a crowd.
