Owners and professional testers agree that the Capresso 560.01 Infinity is the best budget burr grinder. Reviews say that the Infinity With its 16 settings, commercial-grade steel burrs and sleek black plastic housing, the Capresso Infinity can serve as a crossover grinder for both automatic drip machines as well as espresso (as long as you're not too picky about consistency and fineness of grind).
