Product Description
203-42 Fast Touch Coffee Grinder – Love your coffee? Here’s a quick, easy, affordable way to increase your satisfaction when enjoying a cup of coffee. Grinding coffee directly before brewing helps preserve natural oils and flavors that are particular to the coffee bean. The result is a more sophisticated taste and aroma that you’ll taste, smell, and feel. You’re in the Coffee Zone. And that’s what it’s all about.

Nothing beats a freshly ground, freshly brewed cuppa joe to start the day, and with this grinder, you can have up to 20 cups’ worth of beans at a time. The understated black color and contemporary oval design fit in well with any kitchen décor, while the small size (just 6 inches high) doesn’t take up too much premium counter space. Stainless-steel blades guarantee a long life and an even grind, whether you use this grinder for coffee, spices, nuts, or even whole grains.

Krups Fast Touch Coffee Grinders Review
This is an excellent grinder for home use and the one that I use on a daily basis. It is relatively quiet (so I can grind my beans in the morning without waking the kids) and large enough to process 8 or so cups (a full pot) of coffee. The only downside is that you have to practice the knack of when to stop grinding due to the lack of coarse control, but it makes up for it with ease of use. In my mind the quietness, ease of use and ease of cleaning (the black model is easier to clean than white) make this a must-have for coffee lovers.

This grinder was the top recommended spice grinder in Cooks’ Illustrated, and it does a good job, but it just won’t come clean. Some reviewers have said that it is difficult to clean, but that’s an understatement: it is impossible to clean after using it for spices. I bought this grinder last night and after just one use of grinding spices (a mixture of dried chili peppers, coriander, cumin and black pepper), it looks five years old. Even after soaking the plastic lid in warm, soapy water and scrubbing it, the bottom half of the lid is a dingy brown: this staining would occur even in the black model since the lids of both the black and white are the same. The plastic lid has two textures: smooth and cloudy; the staining occurs only on the cloudy portion, but not on the clear portion. Also, the interface between the metal bowl and the white plastic is stained and it smells strongly, even after I wiped it with soap and water and a toothpick. While I don’t mind the smell, in a few months the oils from the spices could turn rancid.

This is my first review for a kitchen product, but my trusty Krups Coffee Grinder deserves two thumbs up. I have used it to grind coffee to perfection: I have both drip and press coffee makers and I can use this to make different sized grounds for each. It also works well to grind nuts and to turn toast into breadcrumbs — I have used it for both purposes. It is extremely easy to use. The only downsides to this grinder (which is why it loses a star) are (1) the base cannot be put in water, it needs to be wiped out; and (2) it lacks some of the “bells and whistles” of newer models. Nonetheless, I have owned my grinder for about 15 years and have been pleased with it since the d

I have owned this coffee grinder for 20 years and it does a fine job of grinding for a drip maker or a press espresso maker. I have also used it for pepper corns, chilies and flax seed. A few years ago the clear lid started breaking up at the bottom and pieces ground up with the coffee. I no longer use it because I do not want plastic in my coffee. Taping the bottom of the lid has helped. I hope that the composition of the lid has been improved in the last 20 years and I am planning to buy a new one to see if it has.

This was not a purchase for myself, it was for a wedding gift that Macy’s did not have in stock, so I honestly cannot rate the item, but I can say that it got to my house in the time frame stated.
