Coffee tastes better when it is freshly ground and this compact grinder does a fine job of it.

Not for espressos
2 years ago
It is very small, does not grind for espresso and cannot remove the top so getting access to the coffee is a pain

Q: I bought this model because it says online that it features a removable grinding chamber. Am I missing something? I can't find how to remove it and there is nothing in the instructions.

A: GrandmaD - Here is what I cut/paste from the FEATURES section: "Features a removable grinding chamber and cord storage" for Model: Simplicite Automatic Coffee Grinder, 12-Cup SKU #043-1964-8. Scroll up. :~) Must be a typo because I believe you're right that it doesn't have that removable grinding chamber, unfortunately.

Q: Does it grind flaxseed?
7 years ago
2 Answers
A: I have been using this for nearly 4 years now. Every morning, I grind some sunflower seed, pumpkin seed, sesame, etc. and add them to my smoothie. Then I wipe inside with a piece of paper towel and grind my coffee. I never used it to grind flax seed but I think it will do the job, but I can always get ground flax seed and ground chia seed from stores.

Q: Est-ce qu'on peut moudre des graines et des noix avec ?
A: Café ou épices selon la description du produit.
Par contre, des noix molles (grasses pas trop sec) en faible quantité avec une très courte durée d'utilisation de cet instrument de cuisine afin d'éviter une surchauffe du moteur dû à un effort au dessus de sa capacité...
A: Hello, thank you for your question! The Simplicite coffee grinder doesn't have pre-set coarseness adjustments. To control the coarseness, it will depend on how long you grind the beans for.

Q: What is this unit's capacity?
I am wondering if perhaps the "12 cup capacity" might be a typo, since a similar unit (Black & Decker Coffee Grinder 043-2124) says that it has a 1/2 cup (118 ml) capacity...?
Thank you...
8 years ago
1 Answer
A: It is a 12 cup capacity:
For 12 cups, place up to 1/2 cup (115 ml) of coffee beans into the bowl
The desired flavour and strength of coffee is a personal preference
Using 8 tablespoons of ground coffee will make 12 cups of coffee.
