Capresso Coffee Grinders

The aroma of freshly ground coffee beans from any of the Capresso Coffee Makers is like no other aroma on earth.  It is almost intoxicating, and certainly warm and inviting. That aroma that has an underlying nutty essence is unquestionably one of the most pleasant odors on earth.

That wonderful aroma coming from is likely one of the reasons that so many people now own Capresso coffee grinders and grind their own beans to make every pot of coffee.

Grinding coffee isn't a new thing.  In the old days, people actually used a bowl and pestle to grind coffee as well as wheat and corn.  Using a bowl and a pestle to grind coffee required muscle power and time…a lot of time.  As mankind got smarter, hand grinders were invented that made the task of grinding coffee much less physically challenging as well as quicker.

Manual coffee grinders were used for many, many years.  In most of the old western shoot-em-ups, if you look closely at the general-store scenes you will be able to spot an old-fashioned manual coffee grinder.

Mankind continued to progress.  Electricity was harnessed and, of course, coffee grinders became electrified.  The old-fashioned hand grinders and the more modern electric grinders operated on basically the same principle.  There are two plates.  One plate is stationary while the other plate is moveable.  Specialty coffee beans are routed between the plates and crushed or ground.

The Capresso Coffee Grinders still operate on that same basic principle, but now the plates have burrs, which make the coffee grounds uniform in size. Capresso burr coffee grinders are the best kind to buy, but they aren't the only choice today.

There are coffee grinders that use blades that chop and re-chop coffee beans until they are chopped fine. The burr coffee grinders produce coffee that is more uniform than the blade coffee grinders.  So, when you are looking for a quality burr coffee grinder look at Capresso Coffee Grinders and see the difference.
