Krups Coffee Grinder Your Questions Answered
Q. Why Buy a Krups Coffee Grinder?
A. You are buying a high quality product from a long established company with a great
track record.
Q. What is a blade coffee grinder?
A. A Blade Coffee Grinder has chopping blades. Blades will chop up the coffee beans until
the blades stop cutting, which is normally when you stop pressing a button. So coarse, medium, and fine are
determined by the longer the time the blades are chopping means finer coffee grounds. However this manual
input does mean an inconsistency in the end result which means an inconsistency in the coffee produced, because it
is very difficult to grind for the same time every time.
In addition the heat generated by a longer flailing of the blades can mean the coffee grains get further
roasted, even burnt, which imparts its taste to the coffee.
In fairness it may be that you are not such a coffee afficionado that you must have the
same coffee flavour every time, in which case a Blade Krups Coffee Grinder would be right for you. Add to this the
fact they are considerably cheaper, and can be used for nuts and spices means a Blade krups Coffee grinder is a
useful addition to any kitchen.
Q. What makes a Krups Blade Coffee Grinder better?
A. Apart from the sheer quality of workmanship, what is important is the oval shape of the
Krups Blade Coffee Grinder. This means the beans will always fall back onto the blades for more grinding, which
ensures uniform grinding and an enhancement in the taste of your coffee.

Q. What is a Burr Coffee Grinder?
Burr grinders crush the beans between a moving grinding wheel and a non-moving surface.
The positioning on the burr is what regulates the ground size, which allows for a more consistent grind. There are
two different types.
Wheel Burr - The less expensive of the two burr grinders. The wheel spins
very fast, and these grinders can be noisy. The higher speed rotation make these grinders more messy as
well.
Conical Burr - The best grinders you can get are conical burr grinders.
The burr spins slower than the wheel model, which makes them quieter and less messy. You can use a conical burr
grinder for oily or flavoured coffees and it's not likely to clog, like the other kinds of grinders. These are the
best type, but you will pay the price for them.
