4 out of 5 stars Variable performance between grinders   August 24, 2008
Not a DJ (Ouray, CO USA)
A good grinder which grinds fine enough for my lever espresso machine. This is my second grinder, of this model, as the first one got drowned in a flood, and it performs better than the first, which could not grind as fine as this one. Variable performance between machines?

This is a real professional model. I had a Capresso that crapped out after trying to make 2 grinds. I think I could grind all day with the Kitchenaid and not have a problem. A real thumbs up for this grinder.


5 out of 5 stars Great for espresso   August 15, 2008

I read most of the reviews on Amazon about how this machine was not capable of producing fine enough grinds for espresso. This made me very reluctant to purchase it, but having other features I liked I thought I would give it a try. This thing out of the box is capable of producing a super fine grind, the finest setting actually was too fine for my espresso machine and clogged it. And on top of that I can still tweak it to make the grind finer if needed by adjusting the machine. Also people complained about the glass being thin on the vessel that catches the grinds. Sure it's thin, but by no means is it going to crack when I squeeze it, I would relate it to being a little thicker than a wine glass. If you dropped it I would bet it would break, but in normal use treating it with respect, you will be fine.

Long story short, I bought this strictly to perform an espresso grind (rarely drink brewed coffee) and it performs beautifully. I don't know why others have had problems, maybe they didn't read the manual right. All I can say is fret not, it is worth every penny.



4 out of 5 stars Works well, some minor issues   August 13, 2008

Pro - consistent grind, very little dust buildup, easy cleanup, looks good!

Con - Nickel Pearl does not match the nickel pearl of our KitchenAid coffee maker. Fresh beans will not always drop without jiggling unit. Grind setting dial works it's way loose and must be checked after every use. Would only recommend to heavy coffee drinkers due to price.

I have been very pleased with the performance of my Kitchenaid Burr Grinder. Operation is as simple as it gets and the results are perfect. I make coffee in a variety of ways: drip, press and espresso. The ease of changing size of the grind is an excellent feature. I'd recommend this for anyone interested in fresh ground coffee but particularly for those wanting an assortment of grind sizes.
