Hamilton Beach 80365 Coffee Grinder
Hamilton Beach Company is an American company founded in 1910. It specializes in kitchen appliances such as: blenders, mixers, toasters, slow cookers, coffee makers and coffee grinders. One of its best selling items is its line of coffee grinders.
The Hamilton Beach 80365 coffee grinder is a hands-free coffee grinder. It can double as a spice mill too because it has 5 automatic settings that could theoretically grind 5 even levels of fineness and coarseness. The grinder is light at 2 pounds, looks smart at any counter top and will not take up much space. Its chamber could hold a maximum of 12 cups of coffee beans at one round. A storage niche is provided at the back for the electric cord which makes storing the unit easy. Dishwasher safe and effortless to clean, the unit even has a little cleaning brush for cleaning the removable grinding chamber.
The noise made by the grinder is tolerable as most coffee beans require a 5-10 seconds to grind. The Hamilton Beach 80365 is praised by its one-touch system. All you have to do is choose the number of cups you want, choose the setting, lock the top lid and your coffee grinder will do the rest.
On the downside, the unit does not seem to have a long life as most consumer reviews emphasized that the unit “died “on them. Most units were under one year old when they failed. There were some unhappy customers who were not contented with the uneven grounds that the Hamilton Beach 80356 produced. As expected of blade coffee grinders, uneven grounds are assumed. The uneven grounds proved undesirable for espresso machines and French press coffee makers.
