OXO BREW Conical Burr Coffee Grinder: Precision Grinding with Built-in Scale Review

I've had two of these grinders. I loved the first. It was attractive, easy to use, and had many grind options. When he died a few years later, I replaced him without hesitation. Unfortunately, I am extremely disappointed with my second model. As many others have pointed out, coffee grounds splatter everywhere. This means the machine and counter must be wiped down after each use. Also, due to the high levels of static electricity, a fair amount of coffee remains in the container. Since nothing…

Phase I: We bought it in 2016 and enjoyed it for the entire warranty period except for a month when it broke and stopped working. This first machine had to be held by hand while crushing, otherwise the machine would wobble and the bean pieces would fall into the seat seams of the cone grinder, the machine would stop and need cleaning. We cleaned them up with a pastry brush from time to time until we got the hang of it. But we have the red ring of death. Phase II: We received a new machine under

We have had this grinder for a few years now but are looking for something new. This mill is terrible! When we first got it I noticed it was throwing dirt everywhere. I contacted OXO and they told me that this was "the industry standard for this type of grinder". Seriously, they didn't try to fix it. Looking at all the reviews on the internet and photos of people who have solved this problem by using a higher capacity, I cannot understand how this company could not figure out how to solve this…

Well, I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to tools. But when it comes to coffee, I've always been a minimalist and loved my vintage and never-failing late-modern small Braun pressure-lock grinder (actually a grinder with rotating blades). was and how little cosmic claim there was. But I lost that grinder and bought a new one from another company which was high design and a lot of mess and needed to be cleaned every time or the grind would go everywhere. And when he died after the first…

I bought (3) of these OXO Cone Mills around the same time, about 3.5 years ago. All (3) grinders were placed on the counter and different types of coffee beans were placed in the hopper of each grinder. (Yes. There are 5 coffee drinkers here, so we need regular beans, decaf, and specialty beans.) About once or twice a week, each grinder was used to grind 125 grams of roasted coffee beans. They were used to brew a large batch of coffee that was kept in the fridge and used for several days. In my

I checked it out. We bought it from Revain in August 2016. At the same time I bought a matching dripper, which seems to be somewhere else as it is not in my order history. I remember being in awe of the coffee maker until it broke within the first year. At that time, both the coffee maker and the coffee grinder were new. A pot because it was a glass kettle which was interesting to watch coffee being brewed and a coffee grinder because of its weight. The Mill is still a rare bird; Weight…

My boyfriend and I are a bit of a coffee snob and prefer to buy good quality beans and grind them ourselves. For those who really love "real" coffee, grinding the beans is the only way out. However, not all coffee grinders are created equal. Most would agree that the key feature of a quality coffee grinder is the use of a grinder instead of a blade, as blades simply cannot produce an even grind. However, as I looked into different coffee grinders (to replace the failed Cuisinart DBM-8), I…
