A key ingredient in the coffee making process is, well, coffee. Flavor is dependent on how the bean was roasted but you don't have much control over that. Another factor is the time elapsed from the time beans are ground to the time they're brewed. When freshly ground, coffee beans retain the actual oils, flavonoids and properties of the bean. With time (and brief time, at that), these natural properties dissipate. So if you're seeking the most flavors in your cups of coffee, a grinder is your best investment. The Saeco GT1 Titan Burr Grinder is a reliable unit for consistency throughout its 12 selectable settings for optimal performance for virtually any coffee brewing method.

- Rubbish
- I purchased the Saeco Titan GT-1 at about half the price that it sells for on Amazon. Even at this price, the machine is awful, and I have since returned it. I would not have kept it if I spent $20 on it. Here are a few short gripes:
1) The grind is NOT coarse enough for a french press and is thus worthless for… More reviews
- It's okay.
- Not to knock Amazon, but $130 is too much for me (I got mine for roughly half that at a well-known Pacific NW-based warehouse retailer - let's call them "Frostco".)
This does exactly what I want it to do, which is produce consistent size grounds of medium fine for conical drip or very coarse for French drip. I can't speak to the hopper holding… More reviews
- A REAL P.O.S. - TRY THE CUISINART DBM-8
- I bought this on my son's suggestion, and he has been good in the past. But this time his suggestion was a real mistake.
I had never heard of this brand (SAECO) before and was reluctant to even try it. I should have followed my gut. Let me say in all fairness that this unit appears to be designed to use every day to grind… More reviews
- Well-built, does the job, perfect for French presss
- I bought this grinder for my wife this last Christmas. It's been two months now, and we are very happy with it. In this price range, I found 3 choices - Saeco Titan, Capresso 560 Infinity Burr Grinder, Black, and Breville BCG450XL Ikon Conical Burr Grinder. Burr grinders in the ~$50 range seemed unattractive (=not worth the money)… More reviews
- Bad milling leaves burrs on burrs
- I bought a Saeco Titan at a retail outlet. Even the coarsest grind setting left me with an extremely muddy cup of coffee. Inspecting the burrs, I found that they were poorly milled by the manufacturer. I brought it back and inspected an identical item. It was no better.
The Titan is much better than any blade grinder but there are better burr grinders… More reviews
