Krups 20342 Electric Coffee and Spice grinder - best selling, reasonably priced coffee grinder

With 520 reviews and a rating of 4.5*, this has got to be good


If you're like me and can't start your day without coffee, or indeed get through the day without it, then this grinder ensures that you have up to 20 cups worth of beans at a time (I can already feel my teeth rattling at the thought of 20 cups!).

"Nothing beats a freshly ground, freshly brewed cuppa joe to start the day, and with this grinder, you can have up to 20 cups' worth of beans at a time. The understated black color and contemporary oval design fit in well with any kitchen décor, while the small size (just 6 inches high) doesn't take up too much premium counter space. Stainless-steel blades guarantee a long life and an even grind, whether you use this grinder for coffee, spices, nuts, or even whole grains. --Jill Lightner"

Grinds up to 3 ounces of coffee beans at a time

Alex H says, "I was very close to buying one of those expensive grinders but I chose to give this one a try first. This gives my coffee beans a perfect grind. The grinds look just like what you expect from one of those pricey professional grinders. No difference at all! At $20 this was a steal!

PearCider says,***Update 3/15/11*** It's been over 4 years, and I still use this coffee maker every single day. I'm STILL on my first packet of filters, and still in love. I rinse the filters out and reuse once or twice per filter. And no, I haven't flipped it over. Yet.

As a certified coffee snob, I thought it didn't get better than french press. Fugetaboudit! The Aeropress renders a sweet, flavorful, impeccable Americano every time that will change your expectations forever. I have a drip coffee machine, a french press and a Krups espresso maker, and they are all officially retired thanks to the Aeropress. .

Richard Cumming says, "I work in a business that sells gourmet coffee beans so I like to check out the competition. We sell lots of organic coffee. These espresso roast beans were perfectly roasted. The coffee is smooth and deceptively subtle for such a dark roast. I was jealous. The blend was just right. Clean on the palate with an immaculately gentle mouth feel. Well done!

Georgia says, "We bought the B60 about 3 months ago. We love it! I tell my husband almost everyday how much I love it. Yes, it may cost a little more per cup then a regular coffee maker but its cheaper then Starbucks or even BurgerKing coffee. Its so fast and the clean up is a breeze which is what we wanted. We wanted a cup of coffee at our fingertips with no mess. This is it. No filters to clean, no coffee to scoop, no glass canister to clean. We pop in the k-cup, add water if needed and enjoy!

Blair S. McDowell says, Love it! Can't believe it took me so long to get one. It changed my life!
