Title: grinds coffee too fine for french press but otherwise small and unobtrusive
Product review: I live in Manhattan and have no counterspace. This one takes up as little space as possible, and looks good, so I don't have to resent its existence every day. As noted by others, coffee beans have to be full to the max in the hopper or it makes a funny whirring sound (in short, there always has to be lots of beans in there).My gripe is that even at the coarsest setting, I find the coffee grinds to be too fine for the french press - makes super silty, muddy coffee (feels like it's cancer causing). I wonder if the more expensive grinders would be able to grind coarser than this, but oh well, I was too cheap.I bought the belgian filter / filtre belgique just to be able to get value out of this grinder, and that's been working well, although I miss the french press coffee.
