Score: 72/100Rankings
The Mr. Coffee Cafe Grind 18-Cup Automatic Burr Grinder offers 18 grind presets, flat burr uniformity, and automatic portioning in a compact stainless-steel design. Its small hopper, plastic build, and noticeable noise limit suitability for heavy-duty or quiet environments. Best for beginners and casual home brewers seeking affordable burr grinding with automation.
The BLACK+DECKER One Touch is a compact stainless-steel blade grinder delivering quick 10-15 second grinds for up to 2/3 cup of beans. Its limited capacity and lack of precise grind settings restrict use for espresso or larger batches. Ideal for single-serve coffee drinkers or occasional spice grinding.
