Question 1

Is this grinder quiet?

Accepted Answer

Replaced my 50 year old Braun (original German) grinder that would wake you up from the next room to this and discovered how quiet it could be!  Very low motor noise - not at all irritating - and could grind coffee at night without waking the household

Question 2

They say it can grind Turkish, is that true? The last model could barely grind espresso.

Accepted Answer

My wife is from Albania. I bought this grinder for her to make Turkish coffee and espresso. It is marginal for a Turkish grinder. The issue is the consistency of the size of the grounds. On the very finest setting, many grounds are as fine as powder, however there is great variance. At the bottom of the cup you will get many much larger flakes. It tastes good, but does not look great. The finest grind is even marginal for espresso. On a $2300 Clive A56 I can pull a good shot with 18 grams of beans, 94C, 9 bars, 30 second infusion, 55g out. If I could, I would grind finer and try to boost the crema and get the output down to 44g, however, I am already at the finest setting. I have tried regrinding the powder for Turkish to reduce the variance in the size of the grounds.  That helps, but at that point, it might be faster to use a manual grinder.

Question 3

I wondr why one review says "no mess" and another says "messy no matter how careful I am."  Can you clarify?

Accepted Answer

I've  had a number of burr grinders over the past 15 years.  I have one of Capresso's older grinders at home.  The 570.01 is in use at my office and it is by far the least messy, most efficient and quietest I've ever had.  Highly recommended.

Question 4

Des it have an on switch that stays on until it completes grinding or do you have to hold it down?

Accepted Answer

You don't have to hold it down. It stays on. You set a circular switch to a number—5, 6, 7, 8, o whatever— and it automatically grinds until it reaches the 0. Depending on the amount of beans, if there are still unground beans, you can set it to 1 again.
