Question: There is so much static electricity from the plastic that holds the ground coffee, that it makes a mess all over the counter! How to stop this?
Document: Mine grinds fine. But it is a pain to clean up. When I take the plastic coffee catcher out, coffee grounds come flying out like a swarm on nats b/c of static electricity build up. Then I have to wipe up the mess, and on more than a few occasions resorted to the vacuum cleaner. The grind quality here is much better than my old circular blade grinder, but the clean up is quite a bit more of time and effort.
What a mess! When I pulled the filled-to-the-line coffee container out of its compartment, static electricity blew grounds all over the counter and floor. Probably a 2 foot radius mess. This is Portland, Oregon and today's humidity is 70% so don't blame climate. Strongly recommend this grinder be used outdoors so the debris can be cleaned up with your leaf blower.
Overall I think the grind is fine. I like the size of the bean hopper and have no trouble with any of the controls. The problem I have with this unit is the static charge grinding produces. When I pull the tray out with the ground coffee it sprays grounds all over my counter. Huge mess. I believe one user suggested getting an anti static gun. Seriously?
This is my first burr grinder, so perhaps my expectations are a bit too high ...Without some extra work on the user's part, a couple grams worth of grinds will not make it to the ground coffee bin, a bunch of grinds remain stuck inside the grinding mechanism and have to be swept with a brush and knocked out after grinding. This process makes a mess.
This grinder works as advertised but generates exceptionally high amounts of static electricity. When I open the bin to get the ground coffee out, a large amount of it explodes out of the bin onto the surrounding area. I have seen comments from others about this issue, for which I have found no solution. Thus, I open the bin now only after I unplug the unit and put it into my sink, so the explosion can be washed up more easily than from my countertop.
Very nice grinder and so much quieter than the spinning blade type i previously used. The grind is consistent and even across all the coarseness settings and the timer/grind control is easy to use. The coffee container is not anti-static but i haven't had any problems with messes. Just make sure you tap the machine on the top a few times after grinding to make sure all the coffee drops down into the cup. Clean up is pretty easy.
That;s a minor inconvenience though. I've had this grinder for several months now, use it every day, and still love it as much as the day I first got it. Would definitely recommend to anyone that loves fresh ground coffee.
This is the first burr grinder I have owned. I love that it has such a great range of grinding from fine to course and that it doesn't require you holding anything while grinding as some other brands require. My only criticism of this grinder would be that it does require you clean it with a brush after each use and some of the ground coffee builds up in its mechanisms. We often brush the excess into our coffee machine grind holder because so much seems to build up during the grinding process.
I was using a cheap Mr. Coffee coffee mill for about a year before I got the Cuisinart grinder from my daughter who had used it briefly. (Note:  Blade coffee grinders like the Mr. Coffee or Krups brands are the worst for grinding coffee&#8230;don&#8217;t waste your $.) So my husband and I immediately noticed the improvement in our morning coffee&#8212;much better flavor&#8212;with 100% Kona coffee beans ground in the Cuisinart.
This grinder is easy to use and clean. It gets daily use and grinds coffee perfectly. Just the right size for our counter.
Answer: Yes, but- slightly tip the grinder forward and tap the bottom on the counter before pulling out the plastic container Or only grind half of what you need at a time. Good luck, both methods work for me.
