Make sure you clean the Cuisinart grinder every 3 or 4 months! Twist the hopper anticlockwise until it pops off, then get in there with a dental pick/brush/vacuum. Mine whimpered and died...but after cleaning it came back.
That espresso grind definitely looks a little too coarse, which would probably be far too under extracted for good espresso. Thanks for the good test shots of the grind, I was wondering about this machine for espresso! I wonder how it would perform with the popular burr spacing modification people make to this machine to decrease the grind size
There are a couple of vids on TH-cam that show how to shim the bottom rather easily for a finer grind. Some are also better than others out of the box. Mine does a really fine grind without the mod.
I find that the Medium grind puts out too many fines inside the chamber for my liking. I just try to pull out the coarser grinds and discard the powder fines not sutable for pour-over coffee.
I cant wait to use it, I ordered it and it should be here tomorrow. I can't find anything on if I can use this with my Moka Pot. I use Bustelo which is super fine but that's already grounded coffee.
Just wanted to say thank you for the video. It saved me from wasting money. I've got/had a similar machine that would consistently leave coffee grinds within the machine during normal use. Side note - Anyone know of a grinder that dumps it's grinds from the top instead of the side like this machine?

It works perfectly for espresso. It is absolutely perfect! This is a great machine!❤️🙏
I am looking for a grinder for cold brew and the corse setting looks perfect. Thanks for the review!

I’m afraid that this does not grind anywhere near fine enough for an espresso

I have one. I don't recommend it for espresso.

Is this good for mokapot?

Solo es para moler café en grano.
What's does the specifications say for required Watts?
So, medium grind for a regular drip coffee pot?
yes :))
SO, can anybody tell me what setting would you put it on if you had a medium roast blend but want it strong?
I bought one tonight at Walmart. I’m taking it back. The finest grind setting is at least 3 to 4 clicks away from an actual espresso grind.

Breville
How many oz per cup? What is a cup? 5 oz 6 oz 8 oz of water?
In the coffee maker world a "cup" is 5 oz
I have the same machine, it works good but makes a bit of a mess .
Don't store your beans in the hopper
Why not?
@nuramisbah3790 he's still thinking of a reason.
No that is not acceptable for expresso not even close..
