Excellent at Grinding with a few flaws
4 of 4 found this helpful Pros:
Excellent at grinding with a very wide range of grind sizes, especially with the addition of extra settings in the burr mechanism. The first version of this grinder needed shim washers to manage a fine grind.
Cons:
MESSY
Easily the messiest grinder I have had over the past 15 years. For some reason this latest model spits grinds all over the place as the filter basket (double) fills. (I have had 2 previous BCG 820BSS without this issue).
The only way to minimize the problem is to run two single shots (At half the dose of a double) remove the group handle, lightly flatten the grinds, then re-insert and run the 2nd grind - even then it still makes a mess.
PAUSE FUNCTION
Pause is useless. If you pause mid grind to flatten the coffee to minimize the mess, you have about 2 seconds to do so before the pause period ends. Stupidly it then resets to a full grind time so you have no way of working out how much grind time was left before you paused, which means you have to guess the balance and adjust the time accordingly. Using two single shots for a double filter avoids the pause debacle.
