Best for the Money

"I've owned a number of (mostly Italian) coffee grinders over the years and the Maestro Plus grinds with the best. The grind settings are repeatable and the burrs seem to be of excellent quality. The machine is easy to disasemble and cleaning is a snap. There is one small drawback to the Maestro, however. It's made for a price point (in China) and the mechanical construction isn't as sturdy as some of the old..." Read Full Review »

Could be better

"Grinder seems to work pretty solidly, but it is noisy. My wife has threatened to throw it out the window. The timer knob on the right could have/should have been designed better. It falls out occassionally due to a push fit and because there are no clicks in the mechanism, it's impossible to get accurate/consistant results...." Read Full Review »

"I have used it just about everyday for the last six months. It took a little bit of experimenting to correlate the mechanical timer dial to the amount of coffee I wanted. Now I just turn it where I want it, fill up my carafe while it's grinding and come back to pour the grinds into the basket and …"  Read Full Review »

"I just drink drip coffee, no espressos etc. For 25 years I've used an indestructible Krupps blade grinder. I was happy enough in my ignorance. Since springing for the Baratza Maestro Plus, I am amazed at how smooth my coffee's flavor has become. Plus the flavor is consistent from day to day. I'm dri …"  Read Full Review »

"I use it every day. The grinder is heavy and stable and you can pull the large receptacle out of it, filled with coffee, without having to hold the grinder. The hopper is large too, which is a plus. You can fine-tune the grind fairly easily. I use a Keurig filter with a Breville coffee maker and fou …"  Read Full Review »

"I got this product a few weeks back and it is true what they say, a great, fresh grind makes all the difference in the world. I've found this grinder to be very quiet and have a very consistent grind. We use it for espresso, but may use it for drip when we're feeling lazy or in a hurry. The main plu …"  Read Full Review »
