Capresso – Infinity Conical Burr Grinder
Elegant, timeless and user friendly design
For maximum aroma and flavor retention nothing beats the Infinity Conical Burr Grinder series. Computer controlled special grinding heads cut the angles and shapes of the steel burrs to within 0.1 mm precision (1/250 of one inch). Burrs are produced as matched pairs and are hand assembled in Switzerland for precise fit. The multiple gear motor produces the slowest grinding action (< 450 rpm) resulting in highest precision grinding from Turkish fine to percolator coarse. Lowest noise conical burr grinder.

Easy to Use For grinding larger quantities of coffee beans for a coffee-drinking crowd, Capresso’s commercial-grade Infinity grinder handles 8-1/2 ounces of beans at a time. Sixteen different settings–four each in the four categories of extra fine, fine, regular, and coarse–let you adjust the grind to the specific blend of coffee and method of brewing. The finest setting is ideal for preparing Turkish coffee, which is a rare feature to find in a grinder. A built-in timer sets the grind for anywhere between 5 and 60 seconds so you can walk away without having to constantly press a button to continue the grinding process. The Infinity has an advanced conical burr design made of steel that is usually only found on commercial grinders. This burr design slows down the gears and reduces the amount of friction and heat to preserve coffee’s flavor and aroma. The coffee container holds up to 4 ounces of grounds and remains sealed during grinding. For safety, the bean container also needs to be locked into place for the Infinity to operate. For easy cleaning, the bean container and upper burr lift off so you can clean the grinding chamber with the included brush and wipe down the heavy-duty zinc die-cast housing. The 100-watt burr grinder measures 7-2/3 by 5-2/5 by 10-4/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty. –Cristina Vaamonde

Good grinder, best for medium roast or for users who prepare mostly one grind setting rather than switching back and forth This review applies to the stainless steel model. We were looking for a stainless steel conical burr grinder with reduction gearing. There are few choices in a modest budget, consumer price range – many grinders more beloved of coffee geeks actually use disk burrs and grind fast enough to heat the beans. (All the Capresso Infinity models use stainless steel burrs with the upper burr set in nylon, it’s the body material that differs).There are conflicting reviews, I will provide…
Way too messy, 3 grams of Powder left inside… Looks nice and is heavy diecast…… That’s all it has…upper end of medium setting grind, produces nearly espresso grind. Coarse grind is not coarse enough for french press….My biggest problem with this grinder, is that it traps almost 3 grams of powdered coffee, with about 100 grams of medium light coffee beans.To clean it out, you need to turn it over (6 pounds) and brush and spank the powder out, every time you use it…..Ridiculous!I used it Once, that was…
Wastes a lot of ground coffee and is very difficult to clean. I must admit that I am a complete newbie to coffee making, but I quickly found two major issues with this grinder that I wish someone would have warned me about. Perhaps the following issues are true of all grinders…Issue 1: If you grind many cups per day, this may not be an issue, but I only drink two cups worth and this grinder wastes about as much…
