Melitta Molino Coffee Grinder, 1019-01, Electric Coffee Grinder, Flat Grinding Disc, Black/Red

With a range of grinds for different ways of making coffee it’s a versatile grinder at a good price. The bean hopper is easy to fill. And the ground coffee is effectively collected. It’s easy to clean. I don’t know if it’s any good for making espresso as I never do that. It works very well for me using a cafetière.

Bought to save my hands aching from using a hand grinder, I've found it an invaluable addition in the kitchen! It's a little noisy when in use, but the grind is short lived (depending on how many people you're grinding for!). It has 17 grind settings, the choice of cup settings from 2 to 14, and is easy to use and clean. It pays to clean the grind outlet every couple of days as it will fill up quite quickly. The only issue I've found so far is that a little of the finer coffee powder from the grind tends to waft out and cover stuff within a 6" radius of the outlet - a minor gripe, but worth mentioning.

The Melitta coffee grinder works well and it gives good control over the coarseness or fineness of the grinding, the timer is a little vague, it is difficult of judge exactly how much coffee to grind for different numbers of drinkers. The plastic ground coffee receptacle is also a bit too thin and liable to crack I imagine and its straight rectangular edges make pouring slightly awkward particularly as the ground coffee tends to stick to the sides - so there are almost always small spillages which require cleaning up afterwards. That said it is relatively good value for the money.

What a great little machine this is. It sits in a corner by the espresso machine ready to grind my morning coffee beans. We set it to 3 for grind size, and 2 for the number of cups and haven’t needed to adjust it since. One push of the button and it automatically dispenses the correct amount of coffee into the little hopper below. All you have to do then is slide out the hopper, open the lid and scoop out your coffee. So much better than grinders that don’t separate the powder from the beans as they grind. Absolutely perfect little machine and highly recommended.

Is a slimline style that fits nicely alongside my Casabrews machine. I doesn't have an unsightly protruding bowl type hopper and it actually grinds the beans rather than chopping them in the way that some so-called grinders perform. The output is finely adjustable and after just a couple of attempts to modify the setting it now delivers precisely a single portion every time. I is a joy to use.

I paid around £22 for this, so in relation to that price this is definitely great value. It grinds coarse as well as fine, in fact it even grinds too fine for my espresso machine so I have to dial it back a bit, nice and even and works really well. Cleaning it is relatively easy, with most parts coming off and are able to be washed, other parts need wiping or dusting with the included brush.For the price I paid you'll generally be looking at blade grinders, so to have a burr type grinder (I believe in this one it's a disc grinder or something) for the same price it's really nice to have. Would definitely recommend at the price

It does what it says on the box grind coffee beans to various coarseness and various amounts use it every few days no issues with it

Makes a drinkable cup. Build quality good, very easy to use, looks nice and a compact size. Makes an average cup of coffee... I used with a filter coffee machine... had to set the coarseness to max due to bitterness from the fine grind. I still got more bitterness than I wanted on max (I like none) which was odd. On closer inspection the grind on max produced large particles yes also lots of fine powder which explained why I was getting some bitterness still. I guess with flat grinders this is the best they can do. I returned and bought a conical blurr grinder for and extra £7 which made a AAA+++ cup!
