Hario Coffee Mill

Here’s my latest coffee geek toy:

It’s a Japanese ceramic burr coffee grinder. I got it to replace the old Braun I’ve been using at work. That one’s getting pretty old. It still does a pretty good job when it’s in tune, but it doesn’t stay in tune for long. This new one does a nice job of getting evenly sized grounds.

I think that my co-workers are going to appreciate this one. The old one sounded like a jet taking off. This one is very quiet. It does require a little more effort than the old electric one, but only takes a minute to grind up enough for a cup or two, so it works well with the tiny french press I use at the office.
