- Is a conical burr grinder worth it over a blade grinder?
- Yes, for anyone who cares about flavor. Burrs crush beans to a consistent size, so extraction is even; blades chop unevenly and produce fines and boulders.
- Can it grind fine enough for espresso?
- It can reach espresso range, but conical burrs give less repeatable fine adjustment than flat burrs. Expect to dial in by feel rather than by numbered clicks.
- Does it work for French press and cold brew?
- Yes. Coarse settings suit French press and cold brew, and the burrs stay consistent at the coarse end.
- How does it compare with flat-burr grinders?
- Flat burrs usually give a tighter particle spread and more espresso clarity. Conical burrs are simpler, quieter in character and easier to live with day to day.
- What should I expect in the box?
- The grinder itself with its stainless steel conical burrs. Check the listing for any included scoop, brush or dosing cup before ordering.
