Besides electric grinders, connoisseurs also love using the traditional hand coffee grinders. They love the experience of grinding coffee beans manually. The classic design is easy on the eye, the sound of the blade cutting through the beans is very addictive, and the aroma of the freshly ground beans is very appealing. This article will review the 3 best hand coffee grinders available in the market.
The Hario Skerton Hand-crank Coffee Mill features a very sturdy construction, contemporary design, and ceramic burrs. At , this very stylish grinder is truly a bargain. Its grind quality is excellent, and it grinds fairly quickly, although not as fast as an automatic grinder of course. Since it comes with a conical burr design, it can produce a range of grinds from fine espresso to passable French press grind. The top part is made of plastic, and the glass base can be used to store the coffee grounds thus eliminating the need for a separate jar.

If you love Arabic coffee, The Zassenhaus Turkish Mill would be a good alternative even though it is double the price of the Hario Skerton mill.

Bodum Bistro Electric Burr Coffee Grinder, Black Overview
Ask any coffee connoisseur and they'll tell you that in order for coffee beans to develop their full flavor profile, they must be ground right before coming in contact with hot water. This is where the bistro electric burr coffee grinder comes in and becomes part of the coffee making ritual. The Bistro is continuously adjustable - twisting the upper bean container determines how finely ground the beans will be. With over 14 settings from coarse to fine, you can deliver the ideal grind for any brewing method. But there's more to it than that. Most coffee grinders use plastic containers to receive the ground coffee but plastic and ground coffee don't go together well. The powder gets statically charged and spills all over the place. The new Bistro comes with a borosilicate glass container to catch the grounds. The glass catcher is inherently static-free, reducing the amount of overall static and "jumping" coffee grounds. This and the tight silicone/nylon lid make for an excellent, no-spill coffee grinder. The borosilicate glass container comes with a silicone band to make it slip-proof, an especially important feature when touched with wet hands. The Bistro is made from borosilicate glass, steel, plastic, rubber and silicone and comes in black, orange, red, green, and white.SAVE NOW on the special offers below!
