Bodum Bistro Electric Burr Coffee Grinder, Black


Ask any coffee connoisseur and they’ll tell you that in order for coffee beans to develop their full flavor profile, they must be ground right before coming in contact with hot water. This is where the bistro electric burr coffee grinder comes in and becomes part of the coffee making ritual. The Bistro is continuously adjustable – twisting the upper bean container determines how finely ground the beans will be. With over 14 settings from coarse to fine, you can deliver the ideal grind for any brewing method. But there’s more to it than that. Most coffee grinders use plastic containers to receive the ground coffee but plastic and ground coffee don’t go together well. The powder gets statically charged and spills all over the place. The new Bistro comes with a borosilicate glass container to catch the grounds. The glass catcher is inherently static-free, reducing the amount of overall static and “jumping” coffee grounds. This and the tight silicone/nylon lid make for an excellent, no-spill coffee grinder. The borosilicate glass container comes with a silicone band to make it slip-proof, an especially important feature when touched with wet hands. The Bistro is made from borosilicate glass, steel, plastic, rubber and silicone and comes in black, orange, red, green, and white.

    BEWARE! Plastic gears between motor & burr

    Everything I need, without spending a fortune! I’ve been drinking coffee for years now and know a good cup from bad. I bought this unit after doing lots of research online and going to local stores and inspecting the grinders up close. I found that most machines in this price range are using ABS plastic where the burrs are located. This to me is a big NO NO and a huge red flag. The ABS will break. This unit uses nylon or UHMW plastic at first glance. These plastics are more ductile and will last. Being a machinist, i am very picky with build quality. The burr set is conical and looks to be Stainless Steel or somesort of hardened steel. Nonetheless, both good options and the burrs look very nicely built. They have been machined and ground and look a lot like burr sets you’d see in units that are 2-3 times the price. The outside of the machine is wrapped in rubber and looks nice. The top hopper is a clear plastic, but seems strong, especially where it matters (the point where it meets the machine). The container…

    High hopes, initial happiness, ultimately disappointed. Oily beans a problem. I’m a Bodum fan, with lots of their glassware. I like their design aesthetic, and they certainly applied it to the Bistro Electric Burr Coffee Grinder. I bought it eight months ago, and at first I was happy with the purchase. I now regret buying it. I’ll tell you why after I tell you why I started out so positive:What I like:1) Great design, as mentioned.2) Glass grounds container works great.3) Not too noisy. (Though not super quiet, either.)4) Metal burr assembly.Here are the problems:1) 20 second on, five minute off duty cycle. I have a Bonavita coffee maker (love it) and there is no way 20 seconds grinds enough coffee. Do I wait for five minutes (painful) or risk damaging the Bodum (painful). I don’t need a painful choice in the morning!2) Ground coffee builds up under the burr sleeve (what I’m calling the stationary metal grinding surface that surrounds the rotating burr) which causes the grind to get finer and…
