OXO BREW Conical Burr Coffee Grinder - Stainless Steel

A: Hello, This is Payton from OXO. Thank you for your question on Target.com. OXO recommends the use of the BREW Conical Burr Coffee Grinder for coffee beans. Best, OXO

A: I would never use a burr grinder for spices, nuts or anything but coffee. The burrs will get clogged with all the oils from the nuts and the bits from the seeds. Stick with a blade grinder for spices.

A: Hello, This is Payton from OXO. Thank you for the question on Target.com. The BREW Conical Burr Coffee Grinder has 15 grind size settings - from fine to course. Best, OXO

A: Yes! I just brought mine home today. I use mid-coarse for pour over, but tried the super coarse and it's pefect and uniform. Nice machine!

A: Hello! Thanks for your question. Our Conical Burr Grinder can grind for French Press. For French Press, a coarse grind is recommended so you should use settings 11-15 on the coarseness adjuster.

A: Hi Dan! Thanks for your question. The hopper for our Conical Burr Grinder can hold up to 3/4 lb of coffee beans. There is not a maximum daily output or maximum duty cycle for the grinder. If you are grinding a very large batch of coffee, you may need to clean out the grinder between batches to prevent clogging. This grinder is recommended for household use only.

A: Hello! Thanks for your question. Typically, K-Cup pods use a medium grind coffee. If you are using our Conical Burr Grinder, you would want to use between setting 6-10 on the coarseness adjuster.

A: Hi! The lower burr is made of hardened Stainless Steel.

A: This is not an espresso-focused grinder. Because this grinder has the versatility to range from coarse to fine, it may only work for limited espresso applications. We recommend you tailor your grinder to your espresso machine and specific application.

A: Hi! Thanks for your question. Our Conical Burr Coffee Grinder has a removable upper burr ring that is able to be taken out for cleaning or to be replaced. The lower burr on the grinder should not be removed.

A: Hello! Unfortunately, we do not have a set time frame on how long coffee beans will stay fresh inside of the hopper on our Conical Burr Grinder. There are several factors that can affect the length of freshness for the coffee beans.

A: Thanks for your question! The number of seconds needed for 12 cups can depend on several factors including how strong you like your coffee, type of roast, etc. If 20 seconds provided half the amount that you need, we would recommend doubling the amount of time. Since the machine only goes up to 30 seconds, you can one 30 second cycle and one 10 second cycle to get the amount needed. I hope this information is helpful!
