Product DescriptionThe KitchenAid Pro Line Coffee Mill is made of handsome Die-Cast metal housing making for a rugged, stable, and easy to clean unit. With the Pro Line Coffee Mill, you can adjust the Commercial Quality Stainless Steel Cutting Burrs to 15 different Grind Sizes for that perfect Espresso, French Press, or cup of automatic drip. The 7 oz capacity bean hopper and coffee bin are glass to minimize the static ''cling'' of coffee grounds. The DC motor with gear reduction system makes for quiet grinding. System turns the cutting burrs at just 450 rpm, minimizing the frictional heating of the grinds and preserving coffee flavor and aroma. The Under-Cabinet design allows the unit to fit easily under wall cabinets on the countertop. The smooth metal housing is a snap to wipe clean. Bean hopper, hopper lid, and coffee bin are dishwasher-safe.
What Others Say
Kitchenaid Bur Coffee Grinder
We are impressed with KitchenAid Pro Line Burr Coffee Grinder, Pearl Metallic. It does a great job grinding the coffe and makes all the difference in the world in the taste as opposed to our old blade grinder. The only thing I would mark KitchenAid Pro Line Burr Coffee Grinder, Pearl Metallic down for is the bottom glass jar that collects the ground coffee is pretty thin glass and I think it may be easily broken. It is not nearly as substantial as the top glass piece where the beans go.

An outstanding coffee grinder
Burr-ground coffee tastes better. This is one magnificent gleaming bull of a grinder. Espresso may be a delight but it's over too soon for me, so I can't pronounce on the fine end, but the Kitchenaid's coarse settings yield French press coffee without mud; one click finer feeds my moka pot (Bialetti Moka Express 6-Cup Stovetop Percolator which fills one mug); the mid to fine range produces perfect drip in a plastic cone (e.g. Manual Drip Coffee Filter Cone). Other Kitchenaid small electrics have given me good service for a generation. And what's more, the thirty seconds I don't have to stand there holding the button down delight me.
Don't forget the MOST important criteria: the TASTE!
I have read some very detailed and well written reviews of this burr grinder. I haven't read them all, but the ones I have reviewed leave out the most important criteria - the TASTE of the ground beans.
I gave this grinder to my son for Christmas, and I have been using it for a few days while he travels. My son, a barista in his own right, who introduce me to coffee, has taught me all the important aspects of making great coffee. I always grind my beans just before I brew the coffee in a French press (excuse my French). I keep the beans in a vacuum keeper. I brew at 190 degrees, F (I don't do metric).
On my first cup from this grinder I suspected something, that I have now confirmed. This grinder does not burn the ... Read More
coffee grinder good
KitchenAid Pro Line Burr Coffee Grinder, Pearl Metallic is built like a tank and has eliminated problems with static and equipment that is impossible to maintain and install replace parts. On top of all that, it is much quieter than the burr grinder it replaced.
