I once used a hand grinder for my coffee beans only to find it took 20 minutes of grinding to get my standard cup of jo.

There must be a better way!

Introducing the BODUM Bistro Burr Coffee Grinder.
This electric grinder will allow you to crush and grind your coffee to uniform size allowing for a consistent and freshly tasting brew.

Holding up to 220g of coffee beans, this machine can easily serve a large family of coffee drinkers, a party of guests, or one software designer.

It is even partly made of borosilicate glass so your double walled glasses now have something in common.

As the machine is over the $60 threshold, it is entitled to free delivery straight off the bat.

  FWIW, I returned mine and had to buy a breville grinder instead.

  It didn’t grind fine enough for me to pull espresso shots on my gaggio classic (probably coz the pressure is higher than other machines in the same category), YMMV though.

  Really wanted to like this machine, especially for the price point, but got better results on a manual grinder, and breville.

  Been using mine for 4yrs & it's been good. I do aeropress, not espresso shots. Not overly noisy, consistent grind. Paid $100 on special so the price is good.

  Use code bodum_10 for 10% off as well.

  We've had one for a couple of years now. Not fine enough to dial in espresso but works fine with a pressurized basket in cheaper machines or for other methods (Aero press, pour over or French press). If you've never had a grinder and don't have a fancy machine it'll get the job done well enough and it's a good intro today makes a big difference for most coffee brewing methods.

    I've been using a $39 Sunbeam multigrinder for a few years now. My custom pulse by sight method seems to be working just fine for my Delonghi Dedica espresso (the Aldi specials). I'm really wondering what i would have to gain by getting something like this or splurging even further. At this price point i could be tempted.

      Burr grinders are better at grinding than blade grinders. A good coffee grinder grinds to the size you want and is uniformly ground across the batch. This is better as it extracts evenly across the pick and avoid channels forming while brewing. Chances are your machine has what's called a pressurized or dual wall basket. These things are made for basic use with worse grinders or pre ground coffee as they hold the pressure in the brew regardless of how you ground the coffee.

      Best way to describe the difference in grind is what you get out of a salt and pepper grinder vs what happens if you shop salt or pepper with a a knife.

      If you're happy with what you have ignorance can be bliss, coffee making is a deep deep hole if you have deep enough pockets for it. If you want to elevate your game this will start that but if you're happy I'd probably hold off and make the jump to something like a Breville smart grinder instead and you'll make better coffee with that. The worry with this one is it's a gateway in to the world that after a few months you might want to spring for the Breville anyway and be double dipping. I'm tempted to upgrade mine and just keep the old Bodum for decaf that we very rarely drink because it's a faff cja going the beans.

        Thanks for the explanation. So basically from what you're saying, if i was to upgrade to a bottomless portafilter, then it starts to become more important to get a quality uniform grind to maintain even distribution of pressure in the non-pressurised basket? I think i may have found a reason to upgrade now ;)

          @liam2040: Bottomless would likely be a regular one sure. The way to tell is if you can get the basket out of your porta filter look at the bottom. Pressurized ones have a single hole that the coffee filters through, unpressurized ones all of the holes are open and the pressure is built up by the puck itself, that's why it needs it be finely ground. I'm my Breville the pressurised one is labelled dual wall on the bottom.

          If you want to go down a rabbit hole find James Hoffman on YouTube. I'm true YouTube fashion you'll suddenly want a $500 grinder and $1000 machine 🤣

  20mins to grind beans? What were you using? A mortar and pestle??

  • 

    Everettpsycho on 29/01/2024 - 15:28

    I got a hand grinder from Ali express once, that was a mistake that took 20 minutes to grind stuff. Never used it again and it's now up on the top shelf in case of an emergency in a power outage so we can make coffee on the camp stove with the aeropress.

    That was my thought lol

    I hand grind my beans and its done in the time it takes for the kettle to boil. Isn't a flash one either, just a cheap Hario

  Takes 20 seconds to grind enough for one coffee on a good hand grinder. If you're on a budget and care about coffee enough, you can get one of the timemore grinders for this price.

  Takes me 30 seconds with a KINGrinder and I would guess results are better than this

    I nearly bought this just now then realised Bodum has two models available …. the fully adjustable version in this post and then the cheaper basic model you linked to on mydeal (the fully adjustable is also on mydeal but more expensive than bodum website)
