5.0 out of 5 starsSmall, but Mighty Grinder
Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2021
So far I'm very impressed by this coffee grinder. It's small, yet has a nice heft to it that makes it feel like a premium product. I ground a full load of beans this morning which took about 2 minutes while having to open the chamber once to shake the beans that had settled at the top. Once this was done, all the beans were ground without any further actions needed.
One of my fears that was put to rest was the capacity which is actually pretty good which came out to about a 1/4 cup (15g) of coffee enough to refill a K cup completely twice.
Clean up afterwards was a cinch with the included brush that made it easy to get to the parts that the coffee was run through.
Two main things that attracted me to this grinder were its portability and the fact that it could be charged with a USB C cable. This doesn't just make it ideal for loading some beans and grinding them on demand wherever you may happen to find yourself, but also it means that with its small footprint that it won't clutter your home much. This was something that I really wanted to avoid and why I avoided purchasing a grinder for so long.
The only thing that will make or break this for me is its longevity which I will update over time when appropriate.
Summary:
Pros: Portable, compact/small footprint, reasonably fast grind for full load, easy to clean.
Update 18 July 2021: finally got the hang of the grind size and am further impressed by how well this little grinder performs. I found that if you're going for a grind for either a French Press(coarse) or coffee maker (mediumish) then the grinder will take about 15 seconds for a full chamber of beans. Where it will take time is if you're trying to get a fine powder like for espresso in which case a full chamber of beans will take anywhere from 3-5 minutes. Other than that, I still stand by my 5 star review.
