How to choose
Burr grinders versus blade grinders
A burr grinder crushes beans between two burrs for uniform grounds, while a blade grinder chops them with spinning blades. Uniform grounds extract more evenly across brew methods, so burr models suit brewers who chase consistency, while the KRUPS blade model also grinds spices, herbs and nuts.
Grind settings and brew methods
Grind size changes with brew method: fine for espresso, coarse for French press and cold brew. The OXO gives 15 settings plus 43 micro-adjustments, the Ollygrin gives 30 settings, and the Fellow gives stepless adjustment for tiny changes. The KRUPS sets consistency by press-and-hold time, and the Cuisinart uses simple on/off control.
Capacity, cleaning and counter space
Capacity runs from 3 ounces in the KRUPS to 12 ounces in the OXO hopper, with the Ollygrin at 10 ounces and the Cuisinart at 90 grams per batch. The Cuisinart weighs 0.55 lb and the OXO weighs 4.5 lb, so check both footprint and lift before choosing.
