CoffeeGeek - Zassenhaus Manual Mill - Pat R.'s Review (#)
„I paid about $60 US for this grinder. I have 3 other burr grinders in the $30 to $80 price range, and the Zassenhaus produces far higher quality grounds and much finer grounds than any of the other comparably priced grinders I have used. I am finally able to make consistently good shots on my Gaggia Espresso machine. Prior to acquiring the Zassenhaus, I was unable to do any better than a 10 to 15 second pour on the Gaggia.“

Grind Your Own Beans (INeedCoffee.com)
„I scanned the Web and found that there is a superior type of grinder called a "burr" grinder. Burr grinders are better than the spinning blade grinders because the bean goes through the grinder only one time. The beans are loaded into one compartment, proceed through a blade mechanism, and the grounds are then dispersed into a second compartment. This produces a more even grind.“

Tips on Coffee - Overview of Coffee Grinders
„Many models of this type can be had for a very cheap price. But there is a second common type of coffee grinders. This is the grinder called a Burr grinder, and these can be broken down into cone or plate burrs. These use two bits of metal really close together to break the beans apart.“

„This list is by no means complete, and there are other very suitable options on the market I haven't listed here. Apart from the looks there are two important things with a burr grinder - the quality of the burrs and the precision of the adjustment/bearing mechanisms. Ken Wilson has put up some of the old articles from alt.coffee and other sources about modifying grinders (some of which are listed below) to accommodate the espresso fineness required for great shots.“

„To reduce particle size variation (though it won't eliminate it), a "burr" style grinder is recommended. While they tend to be more expensive, burr grinders are capable of producing fairly consistent grinds ranging from espresso to French press. Consistency is due to the fact that all beans ground in a burr grinder must pass through the space between the two grinding discs. This space is adjustable depending on the desired grind setting.“

„They tell me that the grind is the other really important part and the whirly blade grinders make too big of a variety in the grind for good results, but if you don't have a burr grinder (like me...yet) I discovered that to help you get more uniform grounds, put a few more beans in than you will need and after you grind your coffee (15 seconds for drip) put it into a yogurt strainer (3 bucks at your local kitchen specialty store) and keep tapping. The little dust falls out, the smallest ground go to the bottom. Scoop from the yogurt strainer.“
