Product Description
Preventing coffee from losing its characteristic taste and aroma is the essential element in grinding coffee. Bodum has spent a lot of time on research and cooperated with some of the world's most knowledgeable coffee specialist to create the Antigua. Using a burr grinder, such as you find in professional grinders at your coffee supplier, the coffee is cut rather than crushed. And by providing the Antigua with special Bodum developed gearing so as not to overheat the beans, we have made the true professional grinder coffee connoisseurs have been looking for. Measuring 8 by 10.5 in, 20 by 27 cm, the Bodum design department has scaled this professional grinder down to the smallest possible size to fit in your kitchen. Although big enough for 1 pound of coffee beans! The grinder can be adjusted from a coarse French press setting to a fine Italian espresso setting. Bodum's Antigua takes all kinds of roasts, from the very dark oily espressos to the lighter and dryer roasts of filter coffee. The Antigua is also provided with a timer-switch allowing you to grind any amount of coffee up to 8 cups at a time. By the way: We at Bodum believe that next to the quality of the coffee beans, the roast, the water and the coffee maker, a proper grinding is necessary to deliver the inexplicable taste and aroma of a sublime cup of coffee.
Bean Hopper: 250g

 i would buy this grinder again November 26, 2008

i owned this grinder for 10 years and it always worked perfectly. i believe i tried to grind too much coffee one day, too fast and inadvertantly burned out the motor. the only trouble with my first bodum was that the little cup holding the already ground coffee fit pretty loosely, so i had to hold it closed while the coffee was grinding, or else i would have ground coffee all over the counter. i read the reviews of all the coffee grinders available, and they all seemed somehow even more problematic as far as the hopper size, the shape of the cup holding the ground coffee, etc. i finally decided to spend the extra money and just get another bodum,and was pleasantly surprised to see that improvements had occured in 10 years. the cup holding the ground coffee now has a little tab that keeps it securely in place. there is less vibration while grinding, and while still not whisper quiet, it definitely is not as noisy. the hopper holds about 12 0zs. of beans, the lid fits securely on the hopper, and the switch has a variety of settings depending on how much coffee you want to grind. it has a wide range of grind settings from espresso to french roast that work well. all inall it seems to be as no fuss as a grinder can get without spending the really big money. it ginds the beans easily and reliably, i never had to clean it in 10 years, aside from taking a cloth and wiping out the hopper fromm time to time when it was empty. all the ground coffe goes immediately into the cup, so there never any stale coffee being held in the grinder. my only complaint would be; occasionally, particularly when grinding many ponds of oily beans in a row, unit needs too be shaken a bit to loosen the beans when they get a little stuck. for that reason i give it only a 4 star rating
 Great product. Sturdy and reliable. November 25, 2008

I purchased this grinder just about 2 years ago and use it almost every day. It's a reliable product and works very well. Good even grind. The adjustments for the various grinds are perfect. There is absolutely nothing I dislike about it.
Love it. I have purchased a second Bodum coffee grinder as a Christmas gift.
Works fine; Coffee tastes great! November 16, 2008

This machine works exactly as advertised. And I like the design, method of operation and ease of cleaning. Mainly the coffee made in my coffee press really tastes much better using this burr grinder to grind the beans.
Works great September 19, 2008

Getting the grind right may take you a few beans but the grind has been consistent. The hopper is large and the output is much cleaner than my last. I don't spill grounds ever time I pull the cup out.
Good step up from the cheap blade grinders August 3, 2008

I purchased this grinder along with a coffee press (the Bodum Chambord 8-Cup Coffee Press) as part of an "upgrade" of my coffee experience.
Overall, I'm not disappointed. The burr grinder does provide a more even grind size, and it does make a positive difference, even for a regular old drip coffee maker. The bean hopper is also pretty handy.
It's a bit tricky to clean, so invest in a pack of pipe cleaners or something to clean around the "intake" and the portions of the grinder that aren't removable.
Noise-wise, it's no louder than my old blade grinder; maybe even a bit quieter. It takes up more counter space, of course. But since moving to a coffee press, the grinder occupies the spot of my old drip maker, so it's not a problem.
The only really annoying thing I've found is the container that holds the ground coffee after its dispensed. It's clear plastic, and as is typical has a mild static electric charge. The ground coffee bits react to this "electric field" and have a tendency to fly around, often onto the counter. So expect to clean up stray coffee grounds after each use.
