coffee grinders : What else to look for in grinders

Static:
The ground coffee creates “static cling”. The ground coffee particles fly around and “cling” to surfaces.

Before removing the grounds containers (all burr grinders), tap the container slightly and remove slowly.

Before removing the lid of blade grinders, tap the top of the grinder and remove the lid slowly.

Noise:
Some grinders are extremely loud which can be very annoying. The Capresso Conical Burr Grinders (Infinity) and the Capresso Blade Grinders (Cool Grind) are among the least noisy in its class.

Safety:
Blade grinders cannot operate without the lid in place. In addition, the Capresso Cool Grind series has the fastest blade stopping action of any blade grinder on the market.

The Burr Grinder Sensor and the Burr coffee Grinder Select will not grind when there are no beans present, regardless if the grinder is open or closed.

The Capresso Conical Burr Grinders will not grind if the bean container is missing or not “locked” in place.

Ease of Cleaning:
All Capresso Burr and Conical Burr Grinders come with a cleaning brush and have removable upper burrs for easy cleaning of the grinding chamber.
