There are two types of coffee grinders - blade and burr.

 

Burr Grinders

These grinders are more expensive but give a more uniform size.  You can find manual burr grinders and electric burr grinders.  Electric burr grinders should not allow the beans to heat up when being ground.  These are beneficial if you are using french press coffee makers or any method where the coffee grinds are actually sitting in the water for a period of time.

 

Blade Grinders

There are many on the market and many with blades that heat and cause the beans to heat up.  Some are not powerful enough to grind fine or even.  The main thing to look for is power and cool grinding.   Our Bodum Blade Grinder has passed our test and does a fine job without the expense of a burr grinder.
