Burr Coffee Grinders Shop

A great cup of coffee starts with high quality beans ground to perfection.  To achieve such, a good coffee grinder burr is necessary, as it preserves the natural and distinct aroma and taste of coffee.  Unlike blade grinders, a burr grinder can cut the coffee beans without overheating and destroying it.

One coffee grinder burr you might want to try is the Breville Ikon Burr Grinder.  Housed in durable stainless-steel, it is a perfect addition to your kitchen or office.  It has five grind settings to give you the grind of your liking, from ultra fine for an espresso machine, or coarse for a French press.  It also comes with easy to read settings to ensure that brewing begins with the correct grind.

The Breville Ikon coffee grinder burr boasts a metal conical burr that produces uniform and even grinds.  This burr mill also generates minimal heat to ensure that the natural flavor and aroma of the beans are preserved.  With a touch-activation setup, this is a very simple and easy to use coffee grinder.  The removable and clear bean hopper is also able to accommodate up to ½ pound of coffee beans.  It also comes with a 10 to 30 second timer.

But because it is a coffee grinder burr, static may pose as a problem.  With this grinder specifically, coffee can sometimes end up on the counter and on the floor rather than in the press port.  It would be better if it had an anti-static feature, as this is a common problem with the product.  Also, it does not produce fine grinds for an espresso machine.  Some people may also find the size too huge, standing at 4 ½” x 6 ½” x 11″.  This may pose a problem for storage and portability.

Also, the Breville Ikon may not be a long lasting coffee grinder burr.  Although it might work really well for you in a span of weeks and months, it could start to lose its optimum performance after a year.  Of course this is to be expected due to wear and tear, and daily use of the product.
