OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder
A hundred dollars and burrs rather than blades. This matters more than which machine he buys.
Our rating
4.6 out of 5
Burrs rather than blades matters more to the finished cup than anything else at this price, and a hundred dollars is where that becomes affordable. Fifteen settings with a dosing timer. Not fine enough for espresso — this is a filter and pour-over grinder.
