So, after doing a lot of research, I settled on the Capresso Infinity. True to the reviews, the gear reduction motor turns the burrs much slower than many other models, which minimizes the heat transferred to the beans during grinding. Since I buy flavored coffee beans, I do clean the burrs every week or so since I have heard that the oils or other "stuff" in the coffee residue can go bad--that last thing I need with my coffee. They do include a small brush but I find that using a cheap toothbrush (standard or "hard to reach style" for back teeth) works best. As I noted in the title, I was not expecting the burr material to begin rusting after the first cleaning. The main issue here is where the ring is encased in the circular plastic housing used to move the top gear up and down. I learned my lesson and use the toothbrush and keep water use to a minimum. If you give it a "whack" on the side of the unit, that is typically sufficient to clear out the small bit of grounds that stay in the machine as the last bit of bean are ground. Overall, a solid value product that does what it says.Read full review

The machine is not loud when grinding. That's the only plus. Does not grind course coffee. Is a pain to clean. When you pull the cup that holds the ground coffee from the grinder, coffee grounds go everywhere. Cord does not want to stay stored in base.

This grinder has two major design flaws. First, the cover for the bean container is invisible because it is so clear. Consequently it is easy to forget to remove it before pouring in the beans (especially in the morning before your first cup of coffee!) Spilled beans make a major mess. A tinted cover would be one means of avoiding this problem. Secondly, the removable ground coffee container allows some of the grounds to collect behind where the container has to be inserted which prevents the container from seating properly. This would not be a problem if there was an easy way to clean this area. Short of compressed air, I have not found an easy way to keep this area clean.

I was having trouble getting the beans ground fine enough for espresso, using my standard coffee grinder. This machine solved that problem. It can grind beans very fine. You don't need to spend more to get a quality grinder for espresso machines. It has a timer dial that allows you to work on something else while the beans grind. Then I tap the grinder to knock out the loose espresso, into the tray, and load it into the espresso machine. The grinder stays very clean. I'll never use my old grinder for espresso again. Capresso is the way to go!
