SHARDOR Conical Burr Espresso Coffee Grinder

The SHARDOR CG018 Conical Burr Grinder attempts to bring precision dosing to the entry-level grinder market space. It is built around a 40mm stainless steel conical burr set, which inherently limits heat transfer to the beans during the grinding process. The motor provides 51 distinct macroscopic adjustment steps, ranging from coarse French Press to fine espresso.

Its most compelling feature is the digital electronic timer, which allows users to program grind times in precise 0.1-second increments for highly repeatable dosing. Furthermore, it incorporates an anti-static discharge pathway to minimize the notoriously messy retention issues common in cheaper grinders. While it lacks the fluid micro-adjustments required to perfectly dial in blonde espresso roasts, it is highly capable for standard dark roasts and pressurized baskets.
