Intro to the Gaggia Espresso - coffeecrew.com - victoria, b.c. canada (#)
„You can throw the most horribly mismatched grind at this thing and it will slow your shot and produce something with plenty of froth that tends to be bitter. The closer your grind is to being worthy of your aspirations, the more palatable the result, the more stable the crema. Thus, if you are stuck with a mound of bad grind you can sheepishly bastardize the handle to produce something that may 'work' in milk-based beverages. It's still an abomination compared to what Gaggia is capable of, but it can be drinkable.“

„I love this coffee grinder/maker. It was the first grinder machine that I have ever used and it couldn't be simplier. The sound of the grind is not horribly loud and it's very fast.“

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.“

„I thought it would go well with my new Cuisinart Coffee Maker. It seems to take longer than my old Krups unit. If you overfill it simply won't grind the beans.“

Grinding and Brewing Your Coffee
„Plate grinders clog easily but make fairly even grinds. Burr grinders wear down eventually, but result in the most even grind in home devices. The ideal burr grinder is a hand-cranked unit, like the famous German brand Zassenhaus models. I have had bad luck with electric models that need constant care and cleaning, and tend to break anyway.“
