Review: Do yourself a favor and forget the electric grinders... - UPDATE 1/4/17: After two years of so, this grinder is still holding up like a champ! I'm actually using it a lot more because I'm using this to grind my cold brew. Because cold brews use more coffee beans, this grinder is getting more exercise every week! Why spend over $200-$300 on a burr grinder to grind coffee for yourself when you can get nearly the same results with this $33 Hario manual coffee grinder? Personally, I don't really know but if you had the money, I guess you really wouldn't care in the first place. If you are looking for one of the cheapest yet best way to grind your coffee beans each morning, look no further than the Hario MSS-1B Mini Mill. The results you'd get with this manual grinder can rival that of machines that costs double to triple the amount of this utility and in some cases, I am willing to bet those machines will lose in a grind off competition (results of grind, not speed). Pros: - This is perfect for those one to two cuppers like myself. I actually wanted to get a cheap electronic grinder and there are even some that are cheaper than this manual grinder! However, I think it was ridiculous to get one just for myself since no one else needs it. - A burr grinder like this beats a blade grinder. From my knowledge, a blade grinder simply just "chops/hacks" up your coffee beans into tiny pieces. The results you'd get by using this method might not be consistent every time. A burr grinder on the other hand does not simply chop but actually "crushes" your beans. You'd get a much more consistent result. Also, because this manual grinder is powered by your hands and not an electric motor, there is less heat generated when you crush the beans. The hotter it gets when you crush/chop the beans actually decreases the quality of your cup of coffee. - This grinder is not hard at all to grind. Please do not listen to the user reviews that claim this grinder is slow at grinding. I believe I can get a cup's worth of grinds in less than a minute or so and I didn't have to turn on super saiyan mode to do it. Although of course, the finer your grind, the more time will be needed. What I found odd was that your hand that actually cranks the handle round and round does not get tired. Instead, the hand that you hold the grinder actually gets tired! This is because you'd have to grip the grinder pretty tight in order for it not to wobble when you turn the handle. To be exact, it's your forearm that gets tired. So if you are right handed like me, then you would most likely hold the grinder with your left hand and it is your left forearm that would get tired. The fact that it has a cover helps a whole lot. I find it easier to slightly tilt the grinder while cranking away and the cover prevents the beans from flying out. While you can grind from a straight position and from a flat surface, I find that it's much harder to do it this way. - Switching between grind levels is extremely easy as you simply hold the center of the handle with your thumb and twist the nut at the bottom of the grinder either left or right. To grind fine, you'd turn it right. For a coarse grind, you'd go left. Once you find the right combination for your drip and espresso, you'd just have to remember how many "clicks" you'd have to go for each one starting from the tightest position (rightmost position). For example, I use three clicks for my espresso grind. For my french press, I use 9 clicks. All I have to remember is which position I last set the grinder to. If its espresso, then I'd obviously just twist it to the left for 6 clicks (3+6=9) for my french press. To go back to an espresso grind, I'd twist it to the right for 6 clicks (9-6=3). It's that simple. - The grind consistency you'd get from this grinder is very, very good. When it comes to espresso grinds, I am extremely pleased with this device. At 3 clicks, the grind is almost to a powder level and very fluffy in consistency. I can't imagine how the grinds will look like at just 1 click! Since everyone treats their coffee beans differently, you'd obviously have to play around with the settings a bit to get what you'd want. If you want absolutely control over your grinds, this is perfect for you perfectionists out there. - Due to its small form factor, you can bring this with you wherever you go and still be able to enjoy fresh coffee every morning! Also, the noise level is at an extreme minimum. You can safely grind coffee in the morning without your neighbors thinking world war III just started. Cons: - The only con I can think of is the clean up process. While it's not extremely hard to do, it can be a hassle. The good news is that you can take this grinder completely apart. Each part is washable. For a good heads up video, simply search on Youtube for "Hario Mini Mill" and there is an awesome instructional video by Hario themselves showing you how to take apart as well as putting the unit back together piece by piece. The ceramic burr is a bit harder to clean because coffee grinds just cling to it, especially if you do a fine grind. Therefore, a simple "rinse" under the water isn't going to help at all. You'd need to actually soak it in hot water with some mild detergent to remove it. All the other parts you can easily rinse with water to clean if you wish. Personally, I'm not diligent enough to take apart this grinder for a wash after each grind. I'd probably do it each week or so. As you can see, the amount of pro's clearly outweigh the con's. As long as this device holds up and doesn't break, I'd be a very happy guy. As long as you understand the audience this coffee grinder is meant for and if you find yourself fitting in that audience, you should come away satisfied as well.
Review: Excellent - I researched for a while before settling on this product. There are alot of people reviewing it that say it is too much work and it takes too long. First of all, that is not the case. It might take 1-2 minutes for enough coffee for 2 people and it is not difficult by any means. Second, if you are looking at getting a MANUAL coffee grinder then you have to expect it to take a little bit of MANUAL labor, that's kind of the idea. I guess people are too used to their automatic, electronic kitchen devices that don't require anything more than the press of a button. On that note, electric coffee grinders have a high rate of failure, something they call planned obsolescence. With a manual one there really isn't anything to have go wrong. If you understand what you are getting then this is a great little product. The reason I decided on this one is because it has a lid to keep the beans from bouncing out which means you can hold the grinder in your hands and at an angle while grinding, as opposed to having to keep the device planted on a counter top or table while grinding. With this one you can walk around or go sit down or whatever you want while grinding. It also has a very easy adjustment mechanism to change the coarseness of the grind and the whole thing is very compact. The burs are ceramic so they will never wear down. To me, for the money this is the best one out there. ***UPDATE*** March 2012 I've had this grinder and have been using it for about 18 months. I have had no problems and am still very happy with my purchase. The ability to change the coarseness of the grind is one of my favorite features. If I want my coffee to be REALLY strong I can grind the beans into a fine powder (which takes a little longer) or if I want it to be regular strength I can set it to a more coarse grind (which takes less time). With a little experimentation you can find the setting that works best for you. This is a solid little contraption and I would still highly recommend it. ***UPDATE*** December 2018 Still have this grinder, still works like new! However, I also own two children now and require a lot more coffee and have a lot less time. I tend to buy my coffee ground these days.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where can i find a grind size guide that compares declicks on the slim mill to coarseness?**
A: I do not know of an official grind size guide. There is a range of ideal settings for any brewing method, since light and dark roasts tend to fragment differently. For French press (coarse grind), I have had good results with 9-13 clicks from the finest setting (9=light roast; 13=French roast). For Melitta  manual drip pour-over (fine grind), I get good results with 5-8 clicks, depending upon the bean. I used 7 clicks for a medium roasted Ethiopian bean the other day and brewed some of the best coffee I've ever had. Hope this helps.

**Q: Can you dispense the coffee directly into an Aeropress coffee maker?**
A: It fits perfectly inside the Aeropress, and then you can use the Aeropress stirrer as a little mallet to tap the bottom of the grinder chamber to release all of the grounds. It’s like they were made for each other.

**Q: I like this mill but the handle  is so difficult to remove ! sometimes I can't do it in less than 5 minutes ....is there a trick to know ?**
A: I had the *exact* same issue. I learned by tapping the unit on the side until the handle jiggles up and down makes it much easier to then simply lift the handle off the top.**UPDATE Fe b 20th** Nevermind, it has now become almost impossible to remove the handle. I now loathe trying to remove the top since it could take anywhere from 3 minutes - 10 minutes... along with a bruised palm of my hand.

**Q: how long does it take to grind?**
A: If you do fine powder for Turkish coffee - about 20-40 minutes.  The grinder just doesn't bite into the beans and spins without any effect.  For general purpose (ground coffee) into Turkish - about 5 minutes.  In outher words unusabe for fine grind.

Used to owned a javapresse burr grinder bought from amazon US, but it gave problems where the ceramic burr detached from the metal body over time, and unable to grind. Got a replacement and same issue happen after some time. But using Hario this Japanese brand, based on the design it won't happen for this grinder. Been with me for 1 year now and so far so good.
