As the name implies, the handheld burr grinder needs to grind the coffee powder manually. The efficiency is much slower than that of the best electric conical burr grinder, and it is difficult to achieve the same grinding force when grinding the coffee powder, so the uniformity will be worse.However, the slow grinding of the espresso manual grinder does not emit too much heat, so the coffee powder will retain a higher degree of aroma. People who like to drink pure and strong coffee can choose a manual hand coffee grinder.
Best electric conical burr grinders are generally one-button operation, larger grinding discs, faster grinding speed, and higher uniformity of ground coffee powder. However, while grinding beans efficiently, it will lead to high heat, and high heat will accelerate the loss of coffee powder aroma. Therefore, for the same coffee beans, the aroma of the coffee powder ground by the hand grind coffee grinder will be stronger than that of the electric burr mill coffee grinder.
In the choice of hand coffee grinder for espresso and electric grinder, the main reference factors are the usage scenarios and budget.
If you don't drink coffee frequently a week, then we recommend getting a best hand burr coffee grinder. If you like to drink coffee or drink coffee more often, you can buy an electric grinder for coffee.
