Barista grade control for a variety of coffee grinds. The removable bean hopper holds 1/2 a pound of coffee beans. The motor drives the bottom burrs and the top plate is stationary. The distance you position them apart precisely determines grind size. The easy-to-read settings allow for grind choices from ultra-fine for Turkish coffee to large and coarse for percolators.

An excellent step up from blade grinders

"I received the Breville grinder about 2 weeks ago and have been using it about every other day since then. Since I was stepping up from a blade grinder, the improvement has been remarkable. Much better tasting coffee and honestly, less noise than the blade grinder I was using. That's not to say the thing is silent, just less noisy than my alternative. I had read some complaints about static causing the grinds..." Read Full Review »

Great Grinder, Messy Cleanup

"The reason I bought this product was b/c I needed a conical burr grinder to grind the steel cut oatmeal for my 7 month old stage 1 first food oatmeal. The Turkish coffee setting is great, however, the cleaning is ackward. It is possible something was missing from my box, but it is impossible to get the powdered remains out of the grinder for cleaning purposes. I think one has to buy a separate brush or something..."

"I use mine to grind 2-4 scoops a day, and after 5 months, not a single glitch. While there is a very small layer of fines in the bottom of my shot cup (I grind a low-oil medium roast bean at the 3rd "click" of the Espresso grind setting), I suspect it isn't going to get much better, unless you pony …"  Read Full Review »

"I bought this for making French press coffee, so I needed a consistent course grind. The Breville did this. Very little sludge left behind. I like the looks of it and how easy it is to operate - one button and voila. It's good entertainment for the kids as well :). Not as noisy as a blade grin …"  Read Full Review »
