CoffeeGeek - Zassenhaus Turkish Mill - Jim Pellegrini's Review (#)

  „Still like this grinder after a year.  Have begun to realize at this point just how much work it is to grind coffee by hand - wouldn't want to do it every day, but for travel coffee and power outages, it's hard to beat!“

CoffeeGeek - The 3x Basket & The Elusive God Shot

  „The alteration to Schomer's techniques are to use the plastic tamper built into the Moka 90 grinder (a tamper that requires an upward force on the portafilter) to compact the grind and create enough space so that about 24 grams can be held in the 3X basket. The exact amount of grind will depend upon the timing numbers that are generated with the pulled shot or pour. Once there is 24 grams or so in the 3X basket, one will immediately notice the unevenness of the puck with visible air spaces.“

CoffeeGeek - Aabree Coffee Brings You the Rancilio MD40 Grinder

  „That grinder everyone mentions is the Rancilio MD40 Commercial grinder. This is no home toy - it's a a full commercial grade grinder, built from the ground up to grind literally thousands of pounds of coffee. And while it's true the Rocky does borrow some parts from the MD40 (namely the motor), the commercial grinder leaves the Rocky in the dust when it comes to the rest of the machine.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide

  „The timer shuts the grinder off automatically. These machines produce a more consistent grind than the cheaper electric blade grinders, they usually do not have to be fussed over while they grind, and they definitely do not need to be cranked by hand. You must be prepared, however, to clean the aperture for the ground coffee after every third or fourth use (some coffee stores sell a brush for this purpose; a small, stiff paintbrush works fine), and periodically open the grinder and clean the burrs. If you grind oily dark roasts, you may find that a brush is not enough for cleaning your grinder; you may have to literally carve the caked coffee from parts of your grinder when you carry out a major cleaning.“

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.“
