OXO - Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder

Freshly ground coffee from beans is the best! I use an electric burr grinder and make single-portion pour-overs using one of those Melitta filter and cones from Canadian Tire. Having a gooseneck spout with specific temp settings makes a huge difference. As for coffee brands - I find the Balzac's Farmers Blend from Costco to be a great everyday option. If you like something stronger and more of a specialty blend, Cavan or Planet Bean never disappoints. Kicking Horse also goes on sale once in awhile at Metro and Zehrs if you want to switch it up between light/med/dark roasts. I've had a couple of different coffee grinders and this OXO one is my favourite: https://a.co/d/9BtcDDc Because the collecting canister is stainless steel (not plastic), you won't end up with static, which helps the freshly ground coffee from flying all over the place. It's also pretty quiet.

I got this Oxo one: https://www.oxo.com/conical-burr-coffee-grinder.html I saw it recommended somewhere as the cheapest conical burr grinder worth getting. Been using it daily for 6 months and I'm happy with it for my pourover and cold brew, so I'd recommend it.

Do you currently have an espresso machine or plans to get one soon? There are some grinders that claim to be able to grind for both styles of coffee, but if you won’t be doing espresso anytime soon you are probably going to be better off going with a grinder designed for drip style preparations. If you do really want to get something that could potentially work for both the OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder could be a good option. They price in around $150 dollars and are middle of the road but solid. If you do eventually get into making espresso the biggest piece of advice I would give, is spend more on your grinder then you think you should. Grind is more important than even the Machine itself.

Oxo- priced right and does a very good job, easy enough to maintain and I’ll even share the Amazon link- not an affiliated one there’s nothing in this for me but saving you time. [Oxo grinder on Amazon](https://a.co/d/gPBqhvv)

I bought the OXO burr grinder a couple years ago and have no regrets. [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CSKGLMM?ref\_=ppx\_hzsearch\_conn\_dt\_b\_fed\_asin\_title\_3&th=1](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CSKGLMM?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_3&th=1)

This is a good one. OXO Brew Conical Burr Grinder

This is the one I have, it's great. I got it to replace my Capresso one that died and I like it a lot better. Whatever you do stay away from the Cuisinart one, a significant amount of the grounds come out powdered, like the consistency of flour.

I've got that one and love it. I've never noticed that whole bean coffee save money over ground, but it sure does taste better.

I have the Oxo grinder and it works great, but I wish I dropped more $ for the Encore because it’s repairable so it will probably last longer (part of the reason why I bought a moccamaster in the first place). As far as I understand, the grinder bits will wear out down the road. Trying to move away from disposable cheap appliances to ones that are repairable where I can.

I also recommend the oxo burr grinder. Had mine for a few years and it’s consistent for coarse grind. I’ve even been grinding fine for the new OXO rapid brewer and it’s doing great with consistent grinds on low settings like 2.
