Open comparison →Common questions
Blade grinders are simpler and cheaper but do not offer the controlled particle-size adjustment of a burr grinder. For espresso, adjustable burr geometry is usually the more relevant starting point.
The number alone is not a quality score. What matters is whether the adjustment range gives enough usable resolution around your brew method, especially espresso.
Check portafilter size, dosing workflow and whether the grinder can adjust finely enough for the coffee and basket you use.
