From the Editors
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

Customer Response
Everything you need.
For a home based coffee grinder that has a large hopper and many different grind settings - you can't get anything better for the price. If you spend some more money you might find one that has a much better grind consistency - but this one comes really close to perfection.
Used for a year, still going strong!
Came to Amazon so I can send the product link to a friend, decided to write a review.
Love this product, it just works and never gives us problems.
Capresso Infinity Burr Grinder
I roast a lot of coffee and needed to be able to grind larger amounts than my flat burr grinder would do, without over heating. This conical burr does the trick for that. Nice consistant grinds. Two drawbacks; Much static electricity, not sure how to get around that one, I think they all would cause it. Now if you just grind one load it is not bad, I grind many loads back to back and that is when the static builds up. The grounds hopper tends to wander out as grinding, I put a rubber band around it to keep it in place, wouks well. Not as easy to clean as my flat burr grinder, but does clean fairly well. Read directions, be careful re-assembling after cleaning. Customer service is great, I called twice for some minor issues, they were curtious.
Great grind, slight inconveniences
First the great stuff; this moderately priced little grinder gives you a nearly perfect, uniform grind in any setting from coarse to ultra-fine. You will need to experiment a little before you know just how many seconds it takes to grind the perfect dose for your French press, drip machine, espresso machine, etc., but once you have that down, it's a one-knob operation.
The inconvenience comes when you want to grind a different kind of bean. Say you like dark roast and your partner likes something shy of full city. The hopper cannot be removed without all the beans falling out the bottom, so there's no way to buy a second hopper and just switch it in. You need to invert the whole grinder over a bowl to remove the beans, then dust out the grinds with a small brush (provided). Fortunately my partner doesn't drink coffee at all, so it's not an issue, but if it were, I can almost see getting a 2nd unit rather than doing that every day, or finding one with a swappable hopper.
I never knew
I never knew that the grinder could make so much difference in the coffee. We thought our coffee was ok before but now we are drinking GOOD coffee. Same coffee beans, same coffee maker. WOW!
