KitchenAid Burr Coffee Grinder in Black Matte

Great little grinder, very quiet and smooth operation. Just what I was hoping for!

I have had an old Cuisinart burr grinder for years. It is loud and always leaves a layer of very fine particles, regardless of how coarse or fine the grind setting is. My goal was to find a reasonably priced burr grinder that had lots of flexibility with respect to grind settings, and most importantly, was very consistent with the output, regardless of grind setting. The Kitchenaid burr grinder delivered this and then some. On top of the extremely consistent grind, it is also surprisingly quiet. The only minor quibble I have is that the grind settings are somewhat counter-intuitive. Every grinder I have used has had the grind size number correspond to the size of the grind. I.e. the smaller the number, the finer the grind. But the Kitchenaid is the opposite for some reason. 1 is extremely coarse and 80 is extremely fine. Strange.

It well designed, quiet, and does an awesome job of grinding. I love the set up of the controls and the selection adjustments. Perfect I do not know how they did it, but there is no static cling of the ground coffee to the sides of the collection vessel.

This is my second KitchenAid burr grinder. I love it so much I bought another for our vacation house. Once you use this machine, you won’t be able to do without it. It is perfect, customizing the grind is easy and no static to spray the grinds. Worth every penny!
