I bought this mini grinder just to try whole bean coffee and because when U read about grinders it says ceramic is better than steel grinders and ceramic grinders are really expensive. I usually drink a lot of tea lately but have been drinking more coffee, but I like putting the fake liquid coffee creamer I. My coffee.
I read over instructions . Pretty easy to open and close the clear bottom that catches the ground coffee, but I found opening the chamber to put the whole beans in is kind of hard , I accidentally hit the on button while trying to close bean hopper. I tried to measure the beans as it says 40 grams max, but I dumped some back out as I had trouble twisting it back closed. Guess a person wi get used to just dumping some beans in. It just grinds enough for say a big cup of coffee.
I pushed start button and it ran for about 2 minutes and shut off, but it only ground about 2/3 of beans so I shuck it a little and pushed button again and it ground rest. It has an adjustment on grind size , line fine to course and course is 40 , I set it to 35. In my photos I put some ground beans compared to already bought ground coffee, I would say it was slightly courser. I did try some fresh black coffee and it did taste good. I took photo of brand I used and bought it T Walmart for line $9.bucks, they sure didn't gave a very big selection of whole bean coffee at my JMS, ND Walmart. Line usual, it came with a cord to charge it, but no plug to plug it into the wall outlet. Do had to round one up. It was t charged, but I just plugged it into over nite. It says to keep it away from water, comes with a little brush to clean out ground catcher. I am interest in what my friend thinks. As she is a black coffee drinker. And wi know more about taste. I had a $5 buck gift card so my investment was under $20 bucks .
