Mr. Coffee BVMC-BMH23 Automatic Burr Mill Grinder, which is electric, appears to be a REAL burr grinder. Hario Coffee Mill Slim Grinder, Mini -- is a little less expensive but appears to be a quality manual grinder. All real burr-grinders are expensive.

One will work. These rings are junk. Made in China. The seekins rings or Burris tacticle are well worth the additional cost.

I am not sure because this is a manual burr I'd like to say that it's a wheel burr grinder.

The used to be made in the USA, but after a quick web search, the Burris site is down, it looks like they are made in Japan...

When I researched the grinder I learned that the burrs are replaceable and the troubleshooting portion of Baratza's website has very detailed instructions on how to do that. The grinder is also repairable by the owner if something fails, which is not the case with so many other brands; they just have to be thrown away and replaced. There were several owners which really loved their machine. I went with those owner reports, the best indication of a quality product. The customer service is outstanding also.

we purchased the black unit, but I'm reasonably sure the stainless is not mock. Regardless I have owned several burr grinders and for the money, this is the best I've used.

Cleanup is fairly straightforward and easy. I don't know if I've fully disassembled, but I believe the manual is available online which should answer your question about the bottom burr. Overall, though, I love this grinder.

Yes keep in mind they are VERY aggressive, and as far as glass I would use diamond burrs not carbide as carbide will be too aggressive and chip glass were diamond would be much smoother edge.

The burrs are ceramic; according to the manual, "Ceramic burrs remain sharp for up to twice the lifetime of the highest quality steel burrs." I've had my Baratza over a year & love it.

Flax grinds well with a blade type grinder. A burr grinder is not really designed to grind oil seeds like flax.

This is not a burr grinder. It is an impeller grinder masquerading as a burr grinder.broke after 1 month

I am not familiar with those you mentioned but I do highly recommend this one. Got one for my son and son in law and they love it!

I have used various burr grinders for coffee for years and they are great for that, but you can't grind seeds in them as they will clog the burrs. I bought the Melita grinder cause I also bought their Coffee Maker so thought I would try it as my burr grinder died. The Melita grinder is awesome as it has pre-sets for type of grind and it's ALWAYS CONSISTENT. I highly recommend it.

There are several small grinders available. For flavor, the best ones use low speed, toothed grinding mechanisms (similar to the old fashioned hand grinders) rather than fast spinning blades. The blades make a lot of powder and heat the beans, so they loose the delicate flavors and scents. The good ones are called "Burr Mills" and are significantly more expensive than the blade type. You can get a Cookinex Coffee Grinder with stainless blades for $8.00 but the cheapest burr type I've seen is the Mr. Coffee BVMC-BMH23 Automatic Burr Mill Grinder for $35.00. Both are found on Amazon. There are several small grinders available.
