Burr Coffee Grinders

[alex369]

Hi,
Can anyone help? What is the best burr coffee grinder I can get?
I have the Cuisiinart but after the first week the coffee started tasting rancid.
Thanks

I would have to agree. For an all around burr grinder the Solis Maestro Plus can't be beat. I sell them on my website as well as a few other brands, but the one that is on my kitchen counter is the Maestro Plus! here is a link to my stores listing of the Maestro plus http://ourcoffeebarn.com/estore/product_info.php?cPath=29&products_id=122

I have this type of grinder. But this mention of rancidness makes me wonder, does a burr grinder need to be cleaned? (Other than the removable hopper, which I already clean regularly.)

You should always clean out the old grounds from any grinder to ensure the best and freshest coffee. I would recomend at least once a week for a thorough cleaning and a quick daily one. For the daily cleaning just get the grounds that are stuck in the chute out. For a weekly cleaning take out the burrs and brush out all remaining grounds.
