Review on ☕ KRUPS Silent Vortex Electric Grinder - Ideal for Spice, Dry Herbs, Coffee, 12-Cups, Black by Matthew Sutton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pleasantly surprised by the noise level and consistency

I used to be the cleanest and only used conical millstones. However, after 3 models that stopped working over time, I was tired of shelling out a few hundred bucks. I stumbled across a review from American's Test Kitchen which found that a good blade grinder had no discernible difference in flavor to a burr grinder. Although they ultimately preferred the ridge, they were shocked that a cheap blade worked so well. That's why I ordered this, much appreciated. Well I'm very pleased that I can get consistent results and that it's surprisingly quiet and easy to clean. Not all grinds are perfect, but I've found I can get a consistent grind in 15 seconds, which is great for my tech nivorm. If you are the cleanest millstone then at least order it as a backup option if your millstone fails. After use, you may find that you want to save money on replacement cutters.

Pros
  • Nice
