The Jura-Capresso Infinity is a burr grinder with an elegant, timeless design. It comes in your choice of a stainless steel finish for a durable, professional look and feel, or in an economical black or Stainless Steel ABS plastic finish. Under the sleek lines you will find commercial-grade solid steel conical burrs. The Infinity is capable of 16 grind settings allowing for grind range for an Espresso to a nice coarse grind for a French Press. It is also equipped with a 5 to 60 second auto-stop timer mounted on the center face of the machine. To top it off, the top burr is removable for easy cleaning. Please note that most grinders are tested at the manufacturer and coffee grounds may be found in the grinder as a result. All machines sold are new unless otherwise clearly stated.
This stainless steel ABS model is a sturdy ABS plastic that will hold up for years in a sleek, professional look.
The 100 watt motor is a gear reduction system. This is important because the slower grinding means less heat buildup which in-turn means less coffee flavor lost. The grinder motor produces far more torque (power) which means less strain on the motor and associated mechanisms and longer life. The grinding burrs incur less wear.
The Infinity's conical burrs rotate at 420rpm. This slow-speed grinder will produce a consistent grind while emitting almost no static charge and imparts little heat into the ground coffee.
The Infinity is equipped with a timer on the face of the machine. This easy to use dial can be set to grind from any where between five to 60 seconds. After the set time frame has elapsed the grinder will automatically stop.
The bean hopper is made of clear plastic and can hold up to 8.8 ounces of beans.
The ground coffee container will hold up to 4 ounces of ground coffee. It is made of clear plastic and is removable for access.

after some initial testing I discovered that on the lowest grind setting was not sufficient attain the "golden rule" for my Gaggia Classic Machine when making a double shot of espresso. I called the phone number given to me by Whole latte love for the manufacturer, Capresso, and they sent me a new top burr (part). This fixed the problem so that I have the perfect grind every time for making "20-25 second double shops of espresso".

fits my price range. Has a timer. Grinds all of the coffee for the different machines that I use: pump machine, French press, stove top espresso machine, ( and if I need it, a drip machine if I ever go back to one)
contact Capresso right away and get the top burr replacement.

This is the perfect machine and 1/5th the money of expensive Italian grinders that aren't as good. Easy to use, great grind range (can't do Turkish). The finest setting is a perfect espresso. Just fine enough without being bitter. Two clicks in the medium settings are great for electric drips and melittas, and the coarsest medium setting is great for french press. Very easy to clean. Have used this for 5 years with no problems ever.

Ease of use. Easy to clean, great grind setting, not very noisy.
Note, you need to make sure when you clean that you get all the grounds out of the housing for the finished grind holder or it won't sit right when you grind the next time and will slip out.

Finer grind setting for turkish coffee. A lock to secure the finished coffee bin so it doesn't slip during grinding.

You learn fast...when your coffee is bitter due to uneven grind as in a burr device, especially considering the fact I use a 4 cup stainless caraf, and the beans are weighed to 40 grams each time, in conjunction with a melitta funnel and paper filter. There is no where else to go except to change the grinder to a burr. It is just that simple actually. Set the coursness of the grind you want, set the timer on "5" for 40 grams of beans, and that is about it. You will need to experiment with timing versus the amount of beans used and type of grind. However, after perhaps 4 or 5 pots of coffee, you will make the right decision. This unit is heavy, quiet, and good looking, You will not find a better unit which does the job for less money. That sums it up quite well.

Weigh your beans the same each time. An Escalli scale is inexpensive and accurate.

Hamilton Beach burr
I have a Starbucks Barrista burr grinder now. I use it for french press, so I use the coarse setting. The 2 problems are inconsistent grind - lots of fine ground mud at the bottom of my cup, and way too much static electricity - makes a mess. What grinder would you recommend to solve both of these problems?

I know the warranty would not support this, but can these grinders grind hard nuts? Or is this crazy.

TechMilanoItalia We cannot recommend using this machine for anything other than grinding whole coffee beans.
I want a good coffee grinder that will not build up static so the coffee grounds won't fly around. I have had one that was SO messy.

techkathy Joanne,
the less plastic on a grinder the better in terms of static. Are you grinding for espresso, French press, drip pot? Let us know and we can make some suggestions.

mjackson ♦ Neal,
That is a good question. I think that static is a tough one to deal with. This one was designed to use glass instead of plastic and from what I have seen at a similar price to what you are looking at will produce less static, here is a link - http://www.wholelattelove.com/Bodum/bodum_bistro_burr_grinder.cfm . Of course you could spend a lot more but then you would get into a grinder that is really meant to be used with espresso machines. Not a bad thing if you have an espresso machine. This grinder for instance has been designed to reduce static and has very exact adjustments as well as dosing -http://www.wholelattelove.com/Baratza/Baratza_Vario_Grinder.cfm. If you are doing french press mostly I would really look at the Bodum.
