Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of KRUPS GVX1-14, Burr Grinder

Customer Review: 20 Settings - 1 Result: Some fine powder, but not much
Summary: 1 Stars

Too bad I can't give this baby Zero stars. It definately earned it.

This grinder has two dials on it. One of may (or may not) do something. I can't tell.

Variable Coarseness: This dial does nothing. From 'Fine' to 'Coarse' I get the same fine powder appropriate for my Espresso machine, but my drip coffee maker and my French Press are out of luck.

As for the "Number of Cups" dial, I don't know if this does anything. Long before it grinds enough powder, beans stop falling into the grind chamber. I don't know why. Violently shaking the grinder does some good, but not always. All I know is that the motor whirs until it overheats and stops, but the beans just sit in the hamper without being ground.

This grinder is useless in multiple ways.

Description of KRUPS GVX1-14, Burr Grinder

Krups GVX1-14 Burr Grinder, Black. Grinding beans just before brewing ensures the best flavor. The best method of grinding is with a Krups burr grinder which produces a highly controllable texture without overheating the beans, 17 position fineness select
This smartly designed, finely tunable burr coffee grinder from Krups is built on the premise that good coffee starts with the freshest, most appropriate grind. Equipped with an expert-quality burr milling system, the machine turns out very consistent grounds with minimal heat for the best-tasting coffee. Its coarseness dial offers 17 distinct settings to create precisely the right grind for the occasion, brewing method, and kind of bean. In addition, the quantity dial, ranging from 2 to 12 cups, lets you grind no more coffee than you need, which helps preserve fresh aroma and flavor.

Structurally handsome and easy to use, the grinder features a large transparent bean hopper with a clearly marked "max" line. The grounds container, also transparent, is lidded and removable for tidy transport to the espresso machine or French press. Simple maintenance is also a boon here--the burr removes for easy cleanup and Krups includes a cleaning brush for the hopper. Shiny and matte black with silver accents, the grinder looks dashing on the countertop without drawing excess attention to itself. It stands 10-1/2 by 4-3/4 by 5-3/4 inches and carries a one-year warranty. --Emily Bedard
