Baratza 585 Baratza Virtuoso Coffee Grinder Review

I have had this grinder for over a year. It provides a very uniform grind over a wide range of settings. Recently, I had to adjust the grind calibration settings back to original spec by removing the hood & adjusting one screw. Instructions are on the web site, no problem. The grinder grinds again as when new. Quibbles: 1. When turned to the maximum setting, the timer does not keep the grinder grinding long enough to produce enough coffee for a twelve cup maker. You have to turn the timer again for more coffee. 2. Like a number of burr grinders I have used, the beans occasionally hang up in the feeder so that the grinder is running but no beans are being ground. This is more likely to happen with large and/or "candy" finished dark roast beans. Cleaning helps but does not eliminate this problem. Turning the grind adjustment ring to the max while the grinder is running clears up the stoppage, but it is an annoying glitch. Still, produces great coffee.

i like to drink expresso and have bought two cheapish electric grinders (hardly any available in the shops in Japan) and both were useless for my purpose, ok for drip coffee. anyway i've also got a $30 hand grinder that i eventually had great success with expresso with, but i find it rather tedious hand grinding 4-6 times a day, hence my desire for an electic grinder. like the previous reviewer, i really didn't want to spend so much on a grinder, but bit the bullet. i've only had it less than a week, but it seems very well built and very functional. the first couple of cups were perfect, but i've not been able to duplicate them since then. the taste of the expresso is better than hand ground, but the water passes quickly through the coffee on the expresso machine and there's no light tan creamy stuff on top of the expresso, which is what i'm really looking for. i'm currently playing around with the fine adjustment for the grind (there are two leavers for grind setting, one on each side, one a coarse and one a fine adjustment). anyway i rate this grinder very highly and i hope it will last for 10 years at least, which will make the initial expense justified
