For grinding larger quantities of coffee beans for a coffee-drinking crowd, Capresso's commercial-grade Infinity grinder handles 8-1/2 ounces of beans at a time. Sixteen different settings--four each in the four categories of extra fine, fine, regular, and coarse--let you adjust the grind to the specific blend of coffee and method of brewing. The finest setting is ideal for preparing Turkish coffee, which is a rare feature to find in a grinder. A built-in timer sets the grind for anywhere between 5 and 60 seconds so you can walk away without having to constantly press a button to continue the grinding process. The Infinity has an advanced conical burr design made of steel that is usually only found on commercial grinders. This burr design slows down the gears and reduces the amount of friction and heat to preserve coffee's flavor and aroma. The coffee container holds up to 4 ounces of grounds and remains sealed during grinding. For safety, the bean container also needs to be locked into place for the Infinity to operate. For easy cleaning, the bean container and upper burr lift off so you can clean the grinding chamber with the included brush and wipe down the heavy-duty zinc die-cast housing. The 100-watt burr grinder measures 7-2/3 by 5-2/5 by 10-4/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde
Product Description
Conical Burr Grinders preserve the most aromas and can grind very fine and very consistent. The intricate design of the steel burrs allow a high gear reduction to slow down the grinding speed. The slower the speed the less heat is imparted to the ground coffee, thus preserving a maximum amount of aroma. Because of the wide range of grind settings these grinders are ideal for all kinds of coffee equipment such as Espresso, Drip, Percolators, French Press. It can also grind extra fine for the preparation of Turkish coffee. Slowest grinding speed in its class creates less friction and heat build up preserving maximum aroma and flavor in any grind setting Tight fitting ground coffee container, holds up to 4 ounces of ground coffee See-through bean container holds up to 8.8 ounces of beans Timer can be set to grind from 5 to 60 seconds Elegant, timeless and user-friendly design Cleaning brush and measuring scoop included Dimensions - Height 10.8 x Width 5.4 x Length 7.7 Weight - 3.3 pounds

 Capresso 560.01 Infinity Burr Grinder January 7, 2009
Chas Pick (Colorado Springs, CO USA)
I've had this burr grinder for only a few weeks, but so far, it has performed flawlessly. It's a little hard to clean the interior portion with the provided brush. I discovered that cleaning it with compressed air works great..... should you have an air compressor that's the way to go.

This was a Christmas gift for my daughter and was recommended by another daughter. They both love this product!
This is the one January 6, 2009
Intrepid (Boston, MA USA)
Quite simply this is the least expensive home grinder that does a good job. I used an inexpensive Braun grinder for many years, purchased and returned a Lello 45800/3006 Ariete Burr Coffee Grinder recently, and observed others in use at various places. This Capresso grinder is far superior to all of those others.
- The conical burr design this model has is the only way to go. Consistent grind and low static electricity.
- Still noisy, but at a lower frequency that other units out there. Definitely bearable in volume.
- Timer is simple and works.
- My only complaint (echoed by others) is that some coffee is left inside the unit after each grind (maybe 1/2 a tablespoon). Not a big deal.
Overall I highly recommend this grinder. The black finish is fine, but if it is in your budget I'm sure the stainless is even better looking.

I bought the product mostly because because i could grind a somewhat large quantity at a time. Since my mornings are hectic and I can't afford the extra time to grind daily. The machine grinds wonderfully with a dial to match your grind preference. The draw back for me however, is the chute to the coffee bowl is to small and it gets plugged. Then the chaos begins and you have to take all the beans out (which spills alll over the kitchen counter) turn upside down and brush all the clogged mess onto a napkin. So for me the machine is aweful messy. So if you are not in ahurry and put a small amount of beans in the dispenser it will work just fine for you!
 Disappointed January 6, 2009
C. MYERS (Purchase,, NY United States)
This grinder was good in producing an evenly ground product. Reasonably quiet. However, in grinding a rich soft bean (pure Kona) it clogs and cakes around the burr. If you do not clean at least every two days or so. a buildup of grounds begins that will soon kill the machine. Do buy the guarantee sold as an extra on Amazon or go elsewhere.
