The KitchenAid Pro Line KPCG100 burr grinder's glass and die-cast metal housing sets it apart. Although it's heavy and somewhat bulky, this grinder earns high marks from owners. The KitchenAid Pro Line KPCG100 has 15 grind settings and a two-year warranty. Owners say that this grinder is quiet, and its glass hopper and coffee bin are less prone to static than plastic versions. It also comes with a burr cleaning brush. Several users say that they used the manufacturer's instructions to modify their grinders for espresso-machine use. While the KitchenAid grinder certainly gets good reviews, we also found good comments for the Capresso 560.01 Infinity (*Est. $90) , which costs less and has 16 fineness settings.
We read the best reviews of this grinder at CoffeeGeek.com, where reviews tend to be detailed and somewhat technical. Users say this machine grinds coffee finely and consistently enough for most espresso fans, but the pickiest will want to upgrade to a more expensive burr grinder. We also read more than 80 reviews of this grinder at Amazon.com.
