7 best coffee grinders, tested and reviewed (2025)

More distinct grinding machines

Conical-Burr All Rounders:

Orchard Encore for $ 150: Baratza’s original Encore is the Honda of Conical Burr Glinder World: Easy to maintain, works great, easy to use, lasts forever, spare parts easy to find. It has been on the market largely unchanged for more than a decade. For not much more, ESP offers a beautiful correction of espresso settings, so I am inclined to recommend the added flexibility. But the original encore remains a solid choice at the entry level.

Orchard Virtuoso + for $ 250: Virtuoso+ uses the same set of Burr as ESP but is not as optimized for espresso. The largest upgrade against ESC ESP is a timer. Both have similar solid but compact structures (although the virtuoso is a little more stylish with their mounted bin), 40 grinding settings and milling mills for sequential grounds. However, the digital Virtuoso timer is great for those who want permanent coffee doses every morning. You will need to dial your grinding time to the basics of coffee, but once you understand this, you can move away from the mill and multi -toding, if you wish. –Tyler Shane

Oxo Brew Conical Burr Grind with a scale of $ 285: Making great coffee is consistently associated with the measurement of your variables and this Oxo model comes with a built -in scale. Put the size of your grinding, select the weight you want, hit the start and move away; It shuts off when it’s over. This is a great way to optimize your morning ritual, but the device scatters several grounds-in its price range, we tend to prefer the Opus or Baratza ESP colleague as a universal circle.

Kitchenaid Burr Grinder for $ 200: This Kitchenaid is stylish and easy to clean, according to the former Wired Gray reviewer, and the storms are available thanks to their placement immediately under the bunker. It also has a precise dose control, with the size of the digestion being controlled by the dial. For espresso lovers, an excellent feature is that you can change the small container that captures the grounds with a portfilter holder.

Flat Storms for dripping and pouring:

Wilfa uniform for $ 349: This Wilfa has long been on our list as a great mill with a flat pouring and drip bar. He remains so, although Ode Springober had it the worst choice with his Gen 2 Burr update at approximately the same price. As its name implies, Wilfa offers a beautifully consistent grinding size and will make you a great pour. This said it was a little vain to regulate more than the ode.

Orchard Vario W + for $ 600: Encore has a larger, beef, flat cousin, a Vario-W+ bar (7/10, Recommended Wired) with a built -in scale and ridiculous adjustment impairment (230 settings!). But like a lot of flat storms, he fights for Finish grinders, according to Wired Joe Ray. And the static is a problem. With Price in Play, Ode Gen 2 comes out, but Ray was still a big fan of Vario.

For travel and camping:

VSSL Java Hand Mill for $ 148: VSSL specializes in ultra -durable camping tools and applies the same durable construction on this durable handmade, ready for camping, which lives in reviewer Scott Gilbertson testifies to be healthy enough to survive the zombie apocalypse. The handle folds to provide a lot of leverage while you grind, and you can use it as a hook to hang the device up when you’re done.

DMOFWHI Wireless Mill for $ 31: You go to a campsite in the actual forests, but you don’t want to work too hard by manually grinding to get a glass? Here you are. The DMOFHI GRINDER is a solid small blade mill that is wireless and rechargeable (via USB-C) and you can grind enough coffee for about 15 to 18 pots of coffee with a single charge. This is a blade mill, don’t expect espresso. But for some dripping, Turkish or cowboy? Have fun.

Also tested

Aarke Flat-Burr Grinder for $ 370: This nice, shiny, stainless steel aery mill contains a unique function when it is paired with the AARK cafe, finding the water in the brewery tank and grinding the corresponding amount of beans. But this feature was not as calibrated as we wanted, and there were many online reports on the mill. I didn’t have the same problem, but with more than $ 300 for a mill that is not long on the market, prudence is often rewarded.

Hario Skerton Pro for $ 50: Hario Skerton was the Gateway grinding machine for a lot of coffee, but since then she has given more participants. It is fast and cheap, but it will give you a devil in a workout and is not so consistent for rough grinding, plus the silicone handle has the habit of falling.

Hario Mini-Slim Plus for $ 37: This smaller Hario is not as fast as Skerton, but its plastic construction makes it good to throw in a tourist bag – and the low price is another reason to feel safe to land it around.

Cuisinart Burr Chrinder for $ 60: At first it looks like a good deal. This is Cuisinart, a well -known brand and a conical mill for less than $ 100! But former Wired Gray reviewer discovered that the low price came with costs: these things were burning faster than a rock star at the end of the 60s.

Bodum Bistro Electric Blade Grinder for $ 20: This small blade mill is quite cheap, and the model serves Wired, which has contributed to the reviewer Tyler Shane for years. This was said, after some inconsistent endurance reports, we prefer Kitchenaid as our budget.

Breville Smart Grinder Pro for $ 200: Wired recommends this Breville in the past for its affordable storms that make it easier to clean. But since Brevil bought the bar, they slowly exchange the grinding machines in their excellent semi -automatic espresso machines with these excellent Baratza Burrs. We give the same tips for a separate mill.
