OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder - Matte Black

My husband brews coffee almost every morning for both of us, and we’ve been really impressed with the OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder in matte black. It grinds beans consistently and smoothly, making a noticeable difference in flavor. One of our favorite things is how quiet it is—unlike other grinders, it won’t wake up the whole house during those early mornings! The tinted reservoir is a smart feature too, helping protect the beans from light exposure and preserving their quality. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a reliable, high-quality coffee grinder that performs beautifully

Bought this when the last one died... or so I thought. But that's another story for another day.This little guy is a workhorse! It takes up probably half the space of the old one and it is so much quieter it's not funny. Which is good, because I have guinea pigs who are terrified of any loud noises, even ones they've heard hundreds of times... like the coffee grinder.It grinds nicely, is easy enough to clean, and--bonus--the stainless catch-basin for the grounds does not build up static electricity. I used to get grounds jumping all over the counter, enough in a week to make another whole cup of coffee: I get absolutely no scatter with this, don't have to brush them out of the container to brew, etc.So. Good price. Neat. Quiet. Small. Does a good job. Easy to clean. What's not to love?

So much better than the Cuisinart burr grinder. This is relatively quiet, not much static creates so bean skins aren't all over the counter. Easy to assemble and clean. The hopper is easy to snap on but worried it will wear out eventually. That is why so cheap probably. Worth the money.

I wanted this as a multipurpose grinder for coffee and espresso.For pourover and drip coffee I think it does a good job. I get tasty coffee but again I'm no super expert.For espresso it hasn't done well. I am using a naked portafilter and I can't grind fine enough to get a decent shot. I can double grind and I get right on the verge of a shot that is still too course.Tldr. ..budget friendly tasty coffee and under performing bitter espresso.

I was blown away by how good my coffee tasted after using the OXO coffee burr grinder. I’ve had two Cuisinart burr grinders but they didn’t last long enough after daily use. The OXO is by far quieter than the Cuisinarts and delivers consistent coffee grinds. The modern design makes it easy to clean and the grinds don’t stick on the grind holder. I look forward every morning to using the OXO coffee burr grinder.

This is my second, I wore out the 1st, it lasted twice as long as the warrantee, I bought a cheap 1 interim- big mistake, the design on this is excellent, container large enough to fit coffee scoop into without effort or mess, grinding comes to an auto stop- believe me this is a good feature, the base is grounded & ground holder fits close to grinder to catch most of the ground coffee, make sure grinder is running when adjusting the coarseness or fineness of the grind- it protects the grind mechanism. I will wear this 1 out too & will buy again.

This is a review of the OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder purchased on Amazon-Value/features for price: great (on the lower end price of burr ginders)-Overall effectiveness of product: excellent-Simplicity: excellentThis is a simple to operate machine for grinding beans at home.Why do you need a grinder at all, and why a burr grinder? If you are a daily coffee drinker, particularly making a cup or two each day, you want to get the freshest grounds you can before making each pot of coffee. Pre-ground coffee does't last as long, and can lose its flavor in a couple of weeks after it's opened; the grounds start to oxidize pretty much right after you grind it. Before buying this grinder, I was using a blade grinder, which functioned great for years and years, but produced irregular grind results that could sometimes leave too much sediment in the coffee, or be too course to make a strong enough cup. The Oxo burr grinder solves this problem by letting you dial exactly how course or fine you want the coffee, and what amount of grounds you need for a single brew batch. I make pour-over drip coffee, so a setting of 7-9 works best for the beans I use and I get consistent results each time.Simplicity. You put fresh beans in the top, set your grind setting, set the timer, and press the button That's it- the grind and timer settings stay the same until you change them. The instructions give you some guidelines on a range of grind settings for making espresso, drip, coldbrew, etc., but there is little information on how long to set the grind timer (they suggest trial and error). The timer simply determines how long the grinder will grind whatever is in the hopper, so you can grind just enough coffee for that one use and not have extra grounds that start to go stale. For me, I use enough grounds to make about 1.5 cups of very strong coffee, and that equals about 23-25 grams of coffee. At a grind setting of "7" it takes the grinder about 15 seconds to make this amount based on the type of beans I use.My only minor criticism of the grinder is there are no instructions with a table to estimate the timer settings, so you have to do this yourself, and to be accurate, you'll need a small kitchen scale that can weigh grams and then play around with how long it takes the grinder to produce the amount you need for your perfect brew. To be clear, the "timer" is only a manually set operating timer, not a programmable timer that turns the grinder on/off at a preset time. Also, there is no brush for cleaning the burrs included with the grinder, so you'll need to buy one or use a new toothbrush to clean the lower burrs. The top burr ring easily detaches from the grinder with a small steel wire handle, to facilitate cleaning.To summarize, a great product for the money, once you figure out your ideal grind setting and how much coffee to grind, you'll be off and running.

Fast, well built. Consistent grind. I really like the static free receptacle. Great design.
