Capresso - Infinity Plus Conical Burr

cosigned, it's got a much more pleasant sound than other grinders. not quieter, necessarily, but more pleasant.

I have a Capresso Infinity Plus that I really like

Idk about other Capresso models but the Infinity has a slower gearbox which heats up the coffee less **and improves the sound signature significantly**

Jesus!! You don’t need to spend that much. If you are asking, I would recommend the Capresso Infinity Plus. I use mine everyday, and been going strong for over three years now. Plus you can find replacement burr sets.

You are going to spend either 565 or 100? It seems like a very broad range. I owned a Capresso 99 dollar grinder (infinity??) for a few years. It was my first electric grinder, and before I went all in. Depending on where you are in your journey and how you approach hobbies, the 99 dollar one could be a fine place to start. If you love the hobby, you will end up buying something else. There is no buy once, cry once in the consumer space. Even nice shit doesn’t last.

Oh! It's a capresso infinity burr grinder? Nothing exceptional but it gets the job done! Family members got it as a wedding gift years ago and never ended up using it and then offered it to me when I was newer on my coffee journey 😂

I used the capresso infinity as my first burr grinder and it’s ok, but I think you’d want to upgrade again sooner than you’d wish. If I had to do it over again I would rather have gotten a $100 hand grinder that I would’ve probably kept all these years instead of the capresso that I quickly wanted to upgrade from.

I personally really like my Capresso Infinity that I've used for years. I'll probably get downvoted but you can also find threads where people prefer it over the Baratza. Personally have never felt the need to spend on a better grinder. I make French Press, pour over and cold brew - never a problem extracting good tasting coffee.

I had the infinity for many years and have since gifted it. Still going, 15 years later. I'm a hand grinder, but would recommend it. I might also see if you could get a new or refurbed baratza encore for around the same price. I'd probably go that route between the two, if the price was close.

I started with a Behmor Brazen Plus 3.0 with a Capresso Infinity grinder. Moved on to a Moccamaster KGBT with a Baratza Encore grinder. Currently running a Breville Precision Brewer with a Fellow Ode 2 grinder. They are all great machines and brew very good cups of coffee. Behmor and Braville have customizable settings for water temp, bloom time etc. So to answer your question- I like the Behmor with the Baratza the MOST.

We have a Capresso Infinity Burr Grinder for 7-8 years now and it’s been great.

For $150 budget it's gonna be the Baratza Encore. Capresso Infinity is darn good for the money too. It's what I used before uograding to the Ode 2.
