„From the same master designer behind KitchenAid's enduring stand mixer, this electric burr grinder was introduced in 1938, and its simple, intuitive design is just as effective today. The precision burr grinding mechanism has 16 grind selections including extra-fine for espresso. Glass hopper with twist-off sealed lid holds a full pound of beans and is dishwasher-safe.“

„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.“

„Swiss-made, the powerful Solis Maestro burr grinder is both versatile and affordable. Its conical burrs (superior to flat burrs) produce a consistent grind suitable for all methods of preparation; espresso, French Press, moka pot or auto drip coffeemaker. Fully adjustable from coarse to fine grind, the hopper rotates for easy grind adjustment.“

„But after just one hour of production it became thin and whitish. The conical burr grinders helped, but did not eliminate the problem. I traced the problem to excess motor heat. The grinder motor was heating up the burrs and we were losing quality and value as coffee oils were degraded during grinding.“

„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.“
