Hartwick Morningside Burr Grinder

The Morningside is the cheapest electric grinder we are willing to sell, and that is a compliment. It uses real steel conical burrs — not a spinning blade — so particles come out in a consistent size range and your brew extracts evenly instead of tasting bitter and sour at once. Sixteen stepped settings cover medium-fine pour-over through coarse press and cold brew. The honest trade-offs: more plastic in the body, a louder motor, and a wider particle spread than the Kernwerk grinders it sits below. None of that stops it from beating pre-ground coffee every single morning, because grounds stale within days while whole beans keep for weeks. Hopper holds 230 grams; the grounds bin is anti-static plastic that rinses clean.
