Hamilton Beach Electric Coffee Grinder, 12 Cups, Silver

Only used five times so far. Works good. Not too loud and allows me to grind just the right amount for 1-3 cups. No problems so far. Completely satisfied.

I use a French press for my coffee and my friends and family call me a coffee snob (I don't think I am, but hey). I generally do a coarse grind with a modified hand grinder, and that works well but is tiresome to do every 3-4 days. I used one of these at a relative's house and was shocked at how evenly it grinds for an electric grinder and ordered one as soon as I got home. Due to the way the blades are designed, the grinder creates a sort of cyclone that sucks the beans in and gets an even grind, unlike many electric grinders which just throw beans around and creating a bunch of "dust and boulders" (i.e. fine dust and big chunky pieces, which is no good). It's intuitive and easy to use and clean too. One note: It works best when it's relatively full. I've noticed that it throws beans around more if you only put a little bit in there, although even then, it still grinds pretty evenly.
