Default burr grinders

Hi Tala\r\n\r\nThere are two types of burrs. A flat burr wheel and a conical burr wheel.\r\nA conical burr grinder is better and gives a more uniform grind. However, if you are just using it for home use a flat burr will work quite well.\r\nI use a DeLonghi with flat burr wheels. I paid around $35 for it. I have had it for about a year and the only note I would make is the burrs seem to be loosing a bit of sharpness. I need to adjust the grind more. If I could afford it I would go to a cone burr next time. You can find good ones for around $50 to $75 for home use. If you are going to a commercial model you will pay more. Probably around $150 and up, depending on your particular need.\r\n\r\nHappy New year\r\n\r\nBob

Conical burr grinders are really better, especially for those who like oily or flavoured coffees. They do not clog like the other kinds of grinders and grind very fine and very consistent.

La Pavoni has some good burr grinders. La Pavoni PA-BURR will be a cheaper choice for about $40, and La Pavoni Jolly Coffee Grinder is more expensive one , for about $280-300.
