Krups GVX2 Coffee Grinder

I have the black and stainless steel model. I use it exclusively for my espresso machine. Since it is a burr grinder, it does a more uniform grind of the beans unlike cheaper rotary units.

It's a solid unit that is heavy for it's size to me that's a big plus. It could have a few improvements though, I'm not exactly sure how airtight the top part that stores the beans is, so I just add beans as needed. And it is pretty loud, but that doesn't bother me, since I don't usually drink espresso early in the morning.

Overall it's great to use for any size grind you want. You may need to tweak your settings at first to end up with a prefect espresso grind that does not cause your machine or filter to clog up. I have a espresso machine with a double wall foaming filter, which seems to be known for clogging up.

I have had no issues, using grinds from my Krups GVX2, only great espresso. The amount of coffee grinds needed setting is great, to automatically give you consistent results. And the one touch button can't be simpler. The three controls are all you really need in a automated grinder.

It also has a safety features of not starting if you don't have the top part on, or the grinds catcher in. My use of this machine has helped my brew have the full benefit of the volatile essential oils from the beans. So start using whole beans today, and with this grinder, you can experience the full rewards of doing so.
