Product Description
Conical Burr Grinders preserve the most aromas and can grind very fine and very consistent. The intricate design of the steel burrs allow a high gear reduction to slow down the grinding speed. The slower the speed the less heat is imparted to the ground coffee, thus preserving a maximum amount of aroma. Because of the wide range of grind settings these grinders are ideal for all kinds of coffee equipment such as Espresso, Drip, Percolators, French Press. It can also grind extra fine for the preparation of Turkish coffee. Slowest grinding speed in its class creates less friction and heat build up preserving maximum aroma and flavor in any grind setting Tight fitting ground coffee container, holds up to 4 ounces of ground coffee See-through bean container holds up to 8.8 ounces of beans Timer can be set to grind from 5 to 60 seconds Elegant, timeless and user-friendly design Cleaning brush and measuring scoop included Dimensions - Height 10.8 x Width 5.4 x Length 7.7 Weight - 3.3 pounds

 Very messy, clogs if you use fine setting October 4, 2008
A. Ebens (california)
The pros: grinds well on medium and higher setting, quiet.
The cons: lots of static electricity in cup, very messy, clogs if you use fine setting.
I would not buy this again.
 Capresso 560.01 Infinity Burr Grinder September 30, 2008
C. Burkard (Yosemite, CA USA)
Grinds very well and less noise than previous burr grinder.I had a small
learning curve with the timing dial as it starts the second it is turned
so difficult to judge the same setting at first. I would like a start switch after selecting the setting. Still a small amount of static coffee
flies around but not a big deal. Better than old Cuisinart. Overall very
pleased.
 Great grinder! September 30, 2008
Margo McCullough (Klamath Falls, OR USA)
I've been through several coffee grinders and absolutely LOVE this one. It is fast and clean. I highly recommend it.
works great; takes some getting used to September 28, 2008

This coffee grinder works great. It takes about 4 uses to get used to it. The clear top got coffee beans dumped on it more that once; opaque might be better. I grind 1 pound of coffee on the most course grind to use in a coffee Toddy cold water maker. I was worried that the grind wouldn't be course enough but using the most current directions on making the coffee from ToddyCafe.com the grinder provides the perfect ingredient.
Capresso 560,yes it works, maybe too well. September 23, 2008
Sir Readsalot (Benjamin, TX USA)
I love my Capresso 560. For the idiots who reported before me that they can't shut the grinder off have never read the directions.
The coolest feature is the ability to stop the grind process by simply rotating the bean hopper to he right and then just let the timer run out.
Cleaning is a breeze. Simple to take apart and clean the burr grinders, although I use a bigger brush to clean the unit.
Two issues and the reason for the four stars:
First issue, the bottom receptacle (where the grounds collect) has a tendency to come loose. It is not a deal breaker and is a design flaw that can be remedied with 2 small adhesive magnets attached to the rear of the receptacle and the grinder.
Second issue, this unit grinds too well.
I have a Yama 5 cup vacuum pot and even on the most coarse option I am still having slow drain on some coffees I roast.
If you are looking for a good grinder for espresso, drip, manual, French press or vacuum pot then get the 560.
Even though I have grind issues I still love this grinder, very sturdy.
My brother also uses a Capresso 560 and has nothing but great things to say about it too.
