Tuesday, November 2, 2010 DeLonghi KG79 Electric 12-Cup Burr Grinder, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This grinder has the usual problem with plastic grinders.It builds up static electricity and the coffee both sticks to the grind holder and will also fly all over you and the counter.The square holder makes it unusually difficult to extract the coffee.

The range of fine to course doesn't generate course enough coffee for a French press.Be careful to follow the instructions for pre-cleaning and putting back the components.It needed a clean prior to use.

Product Description:
More than just sleek, modern, good looks, this electric grinder produces freshly ground coffee beans, helping to ensure the freshest, most delicious cup of coffee. The unit's burr grinding wheel creates a uniform ground texture for consistency while at the same time protecting the delicious oils for maximum flavor and aroma. Turn the quantity-control knob to grind the precise amount needed to make from 4 to 12 cups of coffee at a time. Once the specified quantity has been reached, the grinder shuts itself off automatically. The grinder also offers a grind selector that makes it possible to choose from coarse to medium to fine depending on the drink--anything from espresso to drip to French press. Other highlights include a simple on/off button, a transparent lid and ground-coffee container for viewing contents at a glance, self-contained cord storage, and a dual safety system that shuts the unit off automatically with either the lid or the ground-coffee container out of place. A thoughtful gift for any coffee connoisseur, the burr grinder measures approximately 6-2/7 by 5 by 10 inches.
