Re: Budget Coffee Machine

Chris is right.. get the best grinder, even if it means you have to play catch-up with your machines quality later on; at least you will get the best coffee from your lower-priced machine!!
Kes, i challenge you to use a plunger and put a bag of beans through both your blade and any burr grinder from the Sunbeams up... and tell the forum how the resulting coffees taste!
i am travelling with a vintage Trespade simply because i could not recognise the beans i was using when they went through the blade grinders my friends have on hand; now at least my coffee tastes like coffee.
and the difference in aroma... blades = burnt, burr = beautiful! :

A retailer gave me some sound advice: dont buy a grinder that is more expensive than your coffee machine!!
