KRUPS - GX550850 Precise Burr Coffee Grinder

Check out ebay, Facebook marketplace, or maybe even Craigslist for used Baratza Encore grinders. They're ~$150 new but can be had used for half that and will last a very long time. Speaking from experience, it's a great grinder and parts are both very easy to order through their website and affordable (I just ordered a new cleaning brush and a couple of new gaskets as mine were years-old at that point). A nice bonus is that if you look up coffee recipes online, this grinder is so popular that you'll often see recommended grind settings specifically for it. Though, it's worth mentioning that the Encore is made to grind a larger amount of beans at once by default, to make a pot of coffee. I also have a Cup One and picked up a [single dose hopper](https://www.amazon.com/Baratza-Single-Hopper-Encore-Virtuoso/dp/B0DHD2N1P4) for my single cups of coffee. If you must have a new electric for cheap, I'd probably go with an OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder if you can swing ~$100 as it's about the cheapest you'll get a consistent grind out of an electric grinder. If that's too much, check out the Krups Precision Burr Coffee Grinder at ~$60, though its grind consistency isn't fantastic. Up to you how much that matters, but if you bought a Moccamaster, you probably care about consistently good coffee. For manual grinders, I have a Timemore Chestnut C5 Pro I got on sale for $88 (~$110 new) that's been great and have recommended to others who are also very happy with it. For cheaper, the 1Zpresso Q Air seems to be a very solid performer and even great for travel at ~$70.

Was using a KitchenAid flat blade grinder for a while, but on Prime Day they had the Krups burr grinder on sale for around $50, so I grabbed it! Way more consistent.

I get the Krupps grinders cheap at goodwills. I have several, some spice profiles affect the flavors of others. Specifically I don’t like cinnamon or cloves in some combinations unless called for. I make a lot of Mexican foods and I want to have control of the flavors. Mostly just chilies, cumin and coriander in one and everything else in the other one. You can wipe out single one and then grind some rice in it to clear the “grinder”.

Know of a manual grinder that friend has had years, but dunno brand. Have used my Krupp electric for 40 years, and also regularly used for other things. Can use a French press,or reusable gold filter if you don't like paper filters. I do cold brew now, still need to filter, but no machine necessary and I prefer it cold when it's hot outside. Mortar and pestle sounds like a chore.

This looks just like the Krups that I have. Perhaps rebranded? Lousy for coffee, but perfect for peppercorns when making bacon. I've had mine for decades, and bought it in a yard sale.

Krups coffee grinder for the win! But only for common dry spices, no ganthoda roots! (Easist way to ruin the coffee grinder. Something like a Nutribullet could work for pastes.

+1 not sure how old mine is exactly but several decades at this point. Still gets the job done.

My 2nd hand Dualit grinder fits the bill perfectly. Not sure about the newer models (mine has the large funnel shaped hopper). It's already out lasted my previous expensive Krups grinder 4x over and was already 2nd hand when I got it.

I have a 20-yr old Krups grinder

I have a Krups one that works well.
