Capresso Infinity Conical Burr Grinder for Precision Coffee Bean Grinding - Model 560.01

ML: Yup.. this one works. When you do need to clean it, be prepared to make a mess... But don't put it off too long!
AND DO NOT GRIND OILY BEANS!!! Peets French Roast brand new and shiny made mine stop dead.

weissenkirchen: Committed coffee nuts and you are the fussbdgets who like me insist on grinding your own beans often use dark roasted coffee. The oils from grinding turn rancid inside the machine so if you care about flavor you have to take the. machine apart for cleaning from time to time. Some grinders like a orevious one are not easy to disassemble and reassemble but this nice little grinder has thought through the drill perfectly. The instructions warn you to reassemble carefully matching a blue dot with a white dot. It sounds like a pain but if you can see, you can do and once you do, it is even easier. Highly recommend.

JP: Got my Capresso 560 in 2016 and it still works like a champ 7 years later.

Recently noticed that a small piece of the hopper that fits into the top of the grinder had chipped off, and there was some loose ‘play’ in turning the hopper before it engaged the mechanism below that regulates the size of the grind. Poking around, I found an email address for Capresso and relayed my issue, fully thinking I would probably need to buy a new unit, or shell out half that price to replace the top hopper.
The next day, I received an email from Jura, a company in New Jersey that said please call us to order this part. I did, and while it took a couple tries to get through, when I did, they said yes, we can send that to you. The cost was less than $6! I didn’t even have to pay for shipping. I was a bit gobsmacked that this level of customer service still exists.
I recommend this grinder to anyone that’s interested in a fresh ground cup in the morning. It’s reliable, durable and quiet compared to other grinders.
I’ve seen some reviews discussing static cling after the beans are ground, which yes, I have experienced. But there is a very simple solution I got from a...

Joseph F.: I had an Italian burr grinder I really liked but after over 15 years it died and I replaced with a less expensive made in China grinder. The poor quality in that grinder showed up with an inconsistent grind, noise, and build quality. When it ground coffee the the output consisted of a mix of very fine and medium pieces. It also made an annoying high pitch noise as it worked. It's production of a fair amount of coffee dust when set to just below medium clogged the mechanism enough to necessitate frequent cleaning. In addition, it only last 2 years. After reading reviews of burr grinders I decided to replace it with this Capresso model. I couldn't be happier. It grinds consistently, hasn't clogged, and the noise it makes while working is a more pleasant deep growl. My brewed coffee tastes better (I think friction from clogging with the other grinder was heating the beans), and after more than 6 months of use it looks almost new, virtually no dust coating the interior surface. I highly recommend the Capresso machine.

Brent Canada: This is the second capresso grinder we have owned. We like the first so much we bought another. After extensive use for > 5 years the first one is showing signs of were and tear so we decided to replace it. We ordered the same one because it is easy to use, reliable and easy to clean the ground container itself. AND, we like the various grinds that are available.

TorontoPete: Bought this after reading a review that stated it was one of the the best in performance and the quietest of the tested models. It is certainly quiet - yes, it still makes a noise, somewhat louder than our dishwasher, but quiet enough I no longer worry about waking the rest of the family when I grind my morning coffee.

I only wish it came with some preset timers rather than a dial that one turns and hopes it stops at the correct number. In my case, I am grinding beans for one 16oz cup of coffee. To get the correct quantity, I need to turn the dial to "2". Well, if I mess up and stop at 1.7 or 2.2, I either get too little or too much. And that's quite easy to do. Wouldn't be as serious an issue if I was grinding more at a time, since a difference of 0.2 is relatively minor the more you grind.

Other than that, I love this grinder. As does the rest of the family who can finally sleep through my morning grind.

Joseph Rodriguez: Ive had this grinder for about 2 months now as I hate to review anything within the first few weeks of getting it. Ill say that I'm not a complete Coffee snob, but I do like good coffee at home.
I recently got a Rancillio Silvia machine and quickly discovered that my regular "blade grinder" was nowhere up to the task of producing the consistent fine grinds that i needed for the Silvia.
Lots of research and questions ensued and I settled on the Capresso Infinity based on the value/size/grind consistency etc. So far I'm very happy with the results and have a few notes for anyone thinking about this purchase.
1. Not all coffee machines are equal (goes without saying) but you will need to find out what size grind your machine works best with. The Capresso has 16 different grind sizes and the Silvia likes Extra Fine grinds. If 1 is the smallest (think talcum powder) then I use 3 or 4 (see note 2).
2. Not all coffee beans are equal. I've found that some store bought beans (Lavazza) are drier (less oily) than freshly roasted beans. In my expermenting, I've found that Grind setting 3 works better for the "drier beans" while Grind setting 4 works better for the wetter or oilier...

Etienne Gallant: We have been using this grinder for the past 4 years; figure approximately 500 cycles of grinding coffee beans. As many reviewers stated, there was a real issue in the very beginning regarding static electricity. The issue simply resolved by itself after maybe 3 months of using the grinder. The consistency of the grinding is above my expectations after this period of time. I just had to raise my usual setting lately by 2 notches to compensate the wear of the burr grinding mechanism. I still have some adjustments left. This grinder will need frequent cleaning. I clean it every 2 months. It’s really easy to remove the basket and access the grinding burrs. No tools are required. My trick for fast easy cleaning: USE SOME COMPRESSED AIR! It does the job super fast without the need of a brush. (Make this mess outside please!) This grinder goes along with a Breville BES840XL. I believe it’s a perfect match considering the value of our espresso machine. I know some of my coworkers with high-end espresso machines (2000$+) are politely denying this grinder.

*One design flaw: the lower receptacle is not big enough to accomodate a full upper basket of grinded coffee beans. You have...
