What is a good coffee grinder to start out with?

Posted by scottparat on 14 Nov 2009 | Tagged as: Coffee Questions

I have never had a coffee grinder, but I have coffee beans. I want to be able to grind them, but I do not know what coffee grinder to buy. I can’t spend very much on it – I am hoping that there is a good coffee grinder for around . I am hoping to be able to buy one with more than one setting.

    You can get a Mr. Coffee Coffee Grinder, and they start about $12.00. I have had one for years, and it has three different grind settings: fine, medium and coarse. It is also easily cleaned and does a great job. You should be able to find them at Target or Walmart.

    No, there are no "Good" coffee grinders for around $20.00.
    What you get for that price is a spice mincer that will chop up and bash up your beans.
    The Best starter ‘grinder’ a machine that actually GRINDS the coffee beans is a BARATZA MAESTRO…Depending on where you get it from it will run from $100 to $125…
    their service and return system is AWESOME….if yours quits for any reason CALL THEM and they will ship a new one to you…

    There are plenty at Walmart that are good for starters. Just go to your local Walmart and look around. Plenty within your budget
