OXO - Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder with Integrated Scale

I have the Oxo grinder with integrated scale. Love it

I have the OXO with the built in scale model and have enjoyed it as my first electric grinder, knowing fully well it's not going to give me the "perfect" grind. But, being that I've never had any other, my taste buds dont even know what I'm missing out on so it doesn't bother me!

I 2nd that. I got the one with the scale used on eBay. It's been great. Baratzas are great too. Better reliability and fix ability. But they are also a lot noisier.

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.

I took the same path. The k6 smokes the oxo. The only advantage the oxo has is that you can grind a whole bag at once, but you don't often need to do that if you drink pourover.

I like my Oxo conical burr

So I’m gonna go sideways here for a second. Honestly just get a grinder that can do large quantities. Manual burr grinders are a pain and overkill. If you’re going to be brewing larger batches, then definitely get an electric grinder. That being said I don’t believe you need grinder more than $50 at all. The Oxo may serve you best and they are dozens on FB marketplace (at least in my location.) You just need something that will grind coarse. My recommendation for a quality brew is consistency. Get the same bean every time while learning. Local coffee shops that roast their own beans would be a good bet. I personally get dark roast with chocolate and hazelnut notes. Measure. Measure. Measure. You will be working with ratios and be consistent. I like 200 grams of coffee to 64 oz of water. When serving it’s 50/50 coffee to water with a bit of milk. So I would literally write what you do down so you can replicate it. Lastly it’s important to note that cold brew tastes better after being in the fridge 24 hours after brewing. Even better after 48 hours. Getting good at ratios and replicating your craft is what will make a great brew. Once you get that down and are able to splurge a bit more with a grinder.. you will then be able to mess around with different coarseness. For now, cheaper grinder and the coarsest setting. Anyone pushing an encore for only cold brew is nuts. I got an encore esp recently because I still want to brew cold brew in large batches AND grind for espresso. That being said if FB marketplace Gods bless you then get one lol

Oxo burr grinder does well and is under $100. Is it the best? No. But it’s close to the encore etc and half the price.

The Oxo Brew grinder works well for me and it's very reasonably priced.
