Capresso 575.05 Infinity Plus Conical Burr Grinder Bundle with Large Bean Container, Stainless Steel Includes Cleaning Tablets and Dusting Brush (3 Items)

This is a slight upgrade from the previous one I bought 7 years ago. A coffee grinder that lasts that long deserves our attention and loyalty.

It's been years since I had a Burr grinder last one was so long ago I forgot the brand. It was a gift and had flat steel burrs. This conical grinder is very quiet and I get no mess on the counter after each grind. I also have a manual grinder for small batches and use the Capresso for brewing a pot or french press. I use fresh mild roast beans so maybe that's why I don't have any mess except a little static cling in the plastic catch bin. Cleaning is easy. The provided brush, while small, is adequate but I also use a toothbrush and pipe cleaners after a grind which makes emptying the grind chamber a breeze. Accessing the Burr for cleaning is very easy, as is setting the grind size. This model is the metal body which has some weight to it and may be why it is so quiet. I like this grinder.

Is this conical burr grinder The Best? My research says no. Other burr grinders are regarded as being better.This son of a gun grinds coffee to a powder sufficient for me for making Turkish coffee. Would a manual grinder work better? Maybe. Maybe not.All I can tell you is this grinder has done a wonderful job grinding for my Keurig (I know, I know), my Chemex, and my cezve for Turkish coffee -- which is finer than espresso. I may get a manual grinder for traveling which might be better for a Turkish grind ... BUT ... this does the job.What I can tell you is this does a great job with Turkish coffee and drip coffee and pour-over coffee. If it succeeds with French Press (perhaps in my future) and immersion brewing (more likely in my future), it won't be a surprise. The 16 grind settings are unique and the finest is great. If a manual grinder is slightly different than this grinder (Turkish coffee specific), than it can't be by much. My Turkish coffee is every bit as good as the coffee I have had in Morocco (which inspired me even though it's not technically Turkey) and at Turkish restaurants.The static is minimal. Cleaning (a nuisance) isn't all that bad. And it's much more quiet than most other grinders I investigated. Unless you have a specific need, I don't see how one goes wrong with this baby. I love it.

I had the plastic version of this for 14 years and used it every day so that's well over 4000 cycles. It finally broke so this time I bought the version with the metal base. Have used it for a week now. Works even better than my old one and is much quieter. If it gives me the same service as my old one I will be very satisfied. Highly recommend this product.

I've owned 4 of the Capresso Grinders over the last 20 years. And I've bought another 2-3 as presents for friends and family. All are basically this top premium model. The new one has some improvements (red line marker much improved over the little black dot). However, the new one is, well, just too small a grind. Sorry, I don't want Expresso or Turkish grind. I leave mine on the largest grind setting possible and I get more coffee grits than my previous one (which wore out from my use). I called the company and they even sent me some new parts, but its still a little too small of a grind. If you have the American Press, then the absolute largest grind setting is mandatory and just barely enough. I also use the Aeropress and the largest grind setting works o.k. for that. The largest grind setting is not really enough for French press though.The grind settings have gotten smaller, I think to appeal to the Turkish coffee and Expresso drinkers. Sorry, I'm not one of them. So Four stars, not five.The small grind gets tiny little coffee grits everywhere. If I had the choice, I'd get the previous version of this one where the large grind setting was... actually large grind.

Replaced our Capresso 560, which we used almost everyday for the past several years with no problems. Not sure why I upgraded, but just wanted to. I was surprised at how quiet the Capresso 575 was and especially surprised at how much heavier than the 560. It feels very solid and well-made, so I expect I won't be able to wear this model out -- wore most of the numbers and indicator dot off the old grinder. It may be my imagination, but I do believe that my daily coffee does taste better. At about the same setting, the new grind is finer and totally consistent throughout. I know one issue people have brought up with coffee grinders is static electricity causing the ground coffee to be messy transferring to the coffee pot. One day I had a little of that, but being careful, I had no mess. Another day, after the weather had changed, I had absolutely no floating grounds. I do think this issue is related more to the humidity and the coffee. The Capresso 575 completely meets my needs and is a good value. I considered some of the higher end grinders (at least more expensive) and it is hard to imagine how they could any better than this model. If this model is anywhere near as reliable as my old Capresso, I expect to have many years of great coffee. To me, starting off the day with good coffee is one of the essentials of a happy life.

Consistent grind. Quiet. Easy to use and clean ( though you need to take the time and care). No better bean grinder. Thanks.

been through a few grinders. Glad I got this one.VERY quiet. And the slow speed keeps static down to a minimum. I roast my own beans and get a lot of chaff.I especially like not having to 'cycle' it several times to get through 10 or 12 scoops of coffee except on the finest settings. The hopper has plenty of capacity. Grind consistency appears to be pretty good. Only con is the weight. This thing is hefty! That can be a plus as well, indicates a heavier motor and case. Also helps with the noise reduction? But I can't store it in the upper cabinet, too heavy to lift in and out with a bad shoulder. Not a deal breaker at all, though.I'd give it 5 stars, but haven't had it long enough.
