Mr. Coffee Automatic Silver Burr Mill Grinder with 18 Custom Grinds

Using this to make flour and course grainmeal from whole rice, wheat and oats, works great, powerful and quick. I never had any problem with it. I bought 2 of them and use both at the the same time. Im carful not to stress the motors and overheat it. The resulting grind is a mix of granules and powder, same for grains and coffee. I grind grains, and separate the course from the flour using a fine mesh strainer, then regrind the course mix again. I never had to clean it cause the grains I grind are not oily like coffee is. As for noise level, this is very loud. You need to plug your ears or leave the room. Your apartment neighbours can easily hear it, maybe even wake them early. This is a powerful grinder. It grinds through whole rice/wheat/oat grains with no strain. Yes there will always be a little powdery mess from the collector container, thats just how it is. Be sure to clean all parts from factory oils with soapy water and let dry a day before first using.

I use this for espresso only. This machine got a lot of good reviews so I took a chance. I can return it if it performs poorly for grinding espresso. Well this machine isn't going back! I always had my beans ground from my local coffee shop. Number 2 on their machine which is very fine. Only trouble is a noticeable drying out of the grounds within a few days which produces poor crema. Now with this machine I don't have that trouble anymore. Grind what I need when I need it. I like the fine grind it does. Comparible to what the coffee shop was doing for me (it is on the finest setting to do this). Works perfectly with my espresso machine. I can put 3/4 of a pound of beans in the holder and the lid fits tight enough that I notice no drying out what so ever.
