Tired of bland and tasteless instant coffee? Or need something
to grind up your seeds and spices? Then this superb twin blade
coffee Mill from Krups could be just the thing for you. It gives
you the versatility of a coffee grinder, combined with a general
grinder all in one simple unit.
It has two stainless steel blades together with a 180W motor
which make up the grinding mechanism. It only operates at one speed
as this is all you need. It's not the speed of the motor that you
change; it's the length of time that you grind for. The longer you
hold down the button, the finer the granules you will get. It is
oval shaped in order to get the most even, uniform grind possible
and has quite a large grinding capacity, about 15 cups , for such a
small unit, only 8.9cm x 7.6cm x 17.1 cm. SO it won't take up too
much room on your kitchen work surface or could even be easily
stored away in a cupboard.
As with any product there are a few downsides with this one as
well. Some of these include a slightly 'flimsy' design, the fact
that it is maybe not as robust as it could be, or that the final
granules are maybe not just as fine as some people would like them
to be. The unit itself is also quite difficult to clean for example
if your grinding cinnamon, it will get stuck all round the bowl and
to the lid as well, and you can't just not clean it because if you
didn't then your coffee would taste like cinnamon. However these
minor details aside this is a perfectly good and reliable grinder
for its price, only £19.99 from Amazon.co.uk that should last you a
reasonable amount of time if you use it properly. Also on Amazon it
receives a 4.5 out of 5 star rating, so clearly these minor
problems do not take away from the brilliance of the final
product.
So whether you want to grind your own coffee beans, or your own
herbs and spices, or simply swap out your current grinder. This
simple grinder from Krups is the perfect solution to your problem,
it's cheap, it's reliable and most important of all its simple
enough for anybody to use but still gives a lot of versatility.
