Product Description:
Conical Burr Grinders preserve the most aromas and can grind very fine and very consistent. The intricate design of the steel burrs allow a high gear reduction to slow down the grinding speed. The slower the speed the less heat is imparted to the ground coffee, thus preserving a maximum amount of aroma. Because of the wide range of grind settings these grinders are ideal for all kinds of coffee equipment such as Espresso, Drip, Percolators, French Press. It can also grind extra fine for the preparation of Turkish coffee.Slowest grinding speed in its class creates less friction and heat build up preserving maximum aroma and flavor in any grind setting Tight fitting ground coffee container, holds up to 4 ounces of ground coffee See-through bean container holds up to 8.8 ounces of beans Timer can be set to grind from 5 to 60 seconds Elegant, timeless and user-friendly design Cleaning brush and measuring scoop included Dimensions -Height 10.8 x Width 5.4 x Length 7.7 Weight -3.3 pounds

Amazon.com Review:
For grinding larger quantities of coffee beans for a coffee-drinking crowd, Capresso's commercial-grade Infinity grinder handles 8-1/2 ounces of beans at a time. Sixteen different settings--four each in the four categories of extra fine, fine, regular, and coarse--let you adjust the grind to the specific blend of coffee and method of brewing. The finest setting is ideal for preparing Turkish coffee, which is a rare feature to find in a grinder. A built-in timer sets the grind for anywhere between 5 and 60 seconds so you can walk away without having to constantly press a button to continue the grinding process. The Infinity has an advanced conical burr design made of steel that is usually only found on commercial grinders. This burr design slows down the gears and reduces the amount of friction and heat to preserve coffee's flavor and aroma. The coffee container holds up to 4 ounces of grounds and remains sealed during grinding. For safety, the bean container also needs to be locked into place for the Infinity to operate. For easy cleaning, the bean container and upper burr lift off so you can clean the grinding chamber with the included brush and wipe down the heavy-duty zinc die-cast housing. The 100-watt burr grinder measures 7-2/3 by 5-2/5 by 10-4/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Moderate Priced Coffee Grinder
We've been using this grinder for about 6 mos now after having one of those Grind and Brew combo things that we always hated. This grinder grinds the beans evenly and is reasonably quiet. It is easy to fill and to empty. The only negatives are that it takes some guesswork to figure out what setting to put the grinder on. There are just numbers that seem to equate to time that the grinder runs. It keeps running after the hopper is empty unless you turn the dial to zero. One other thing, because it's ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - This works fine.
I'm very happy with this unit. Tried three before it.
Like others wrote, don't turn the timer off manuelly. Let it run out on its own.
Just put in what you want to grind to keep it acturate.( While its still turning a few taps on the back gets most of the grounds out)
It does a nice job of french press coarseness vs a fine grind.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fantastic grinder with very few flaws
I've been using this fantastic burr grinder for the past 6 months or so. Its ability to control grain size is far and beyond what any spinning-blade grinder can do. I will never again purchase a blade grinder.

As far as flaws go, my unit - and I presume this problem is systemic - tends to vibrate the hopper loose while grinding. Basically, it slowly inches forward since the retention mechanism isn't all that... retentive. With any duration beyond the 3 mark (which is about a half-pot for ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - convinient and practical
Overall this is a great grinder.I have never had anything other than a blade grinder in my life but when my 3rd one broke, a friend suggested a burr grinder.I really like the fact that you can store a moderate amount of beans in the hopper (I make ~4-5 cups a day and it lasts ~1 week), there is no mess, and it's much quieter than my blade grinders.

A lot of people were complaining about static and the grounds sticking to the plastic hopper.I haven't experienced this but I have only ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Product
This product performed as promised.It is easy to use - easy to clean and delivers a grind that when brewed was flavorful with no aftertaste.My husband received this as a birthday present and could not be happier.He does a lot of research before purchasing what he considers to be a major item and he wanted a burr grinder - this one was definitely a hit at our house.
