We tested 9 popular handheld coffee grinders to find the ones that were easy to use and ground coffee uniformly.

that allows you to brew multiple cups at the exact same time under the same circumstances, making it the industry standard for coffee flavor evaluation. A double blind cupping would both let me taste coffee from each grinder side-by-side without knowing which grinder I was tasting, and would also do a solid job at mimicking how each grinder would perform when brewed as a. Each grinder was assigned a number, and each corresponding glass was labeled with that number on its base.

A good-quality burr grinder doesn’t just break up particles into similar sizes, it actually cuts the coffee with sharp, cutting edges on the burrs themselves. There are plenty ofand even commercial, crushing burr grinders that are designed to, again, pulverize coffee, only this time into a more consistent particle size.

Both of those grinders performed great in our taste tests, but neither of them mirrored the particle distribution of the Comandante. Over half of the particles produced by the 1Zpresso JX were considered boulders, or larger than 1400 microns, and the fines produced averaged 7% by total weight. While the Timemore C2 produced fewer fines the 1Zpresso JX, it still ranked third in taste tests, showing that the raw data doesn’t always correlate to flavors in the cup., as a control grinder.

The scientific answer is, of course, no. The realistic kitchen testing answer is, well, sure: the overall average particle size distribution might have been slightly higher or lower for each of the three categories separated by the two sieve filters, but across the board, every grinder produced a grind that was around 40-60% above 1400 microns, 40-60% between 500-1400 microns, and around 3-7% below 500 microns.

All three of our winners also featured a basic, cylindrical form with a textured body for easy grip and a screw-in grinds bin to stay firmly attached even during the most aggressive cranking. And finally, all three of our winners featured a clicking adjustment lever on the underside of the burrs, both ensuring that the grind size can lock into place easily and not be accidentally moved when picking up and putting down the grinder.
