Looking neat and elegant in white, the Salton CG7W Coffee and Spice Grinder is a fine addition to your kitchen countertop. It is cylindrical in shape with a bottom that flares outward for added stability. Its top is a transparent lid, through which you can peer inside the machine. It is fastened to the grinder’s main body with plastic and wire clamps.
Visible through the clear lid is a receptacle for coffee beans or spices for grinding. Inside the container is a blade that is spun by a powerful motor in high speeds to reduce coffee, peppercorn, flax seeds, cinnamon, cumin, parsley, coriander, or allspice berries into tiny pieces. With a pulse control, you can easily choose the texture of your grounds, from coarse to extra fine.
The motor is concealed beneath the coffee or spice container. Although powerful, it runs quietly. All the noise you will hear when operating it comes from the beans or spices being thrown around inside the container. When they are cut in smaller pieces, all you will hear is the soft purring of the motor.
When grinding coffee beans, it can hold up to 65 grams, which is enough for 10 cups of a nice hot java. It may not be advisable to use the same grinder for your coffee beans and spices though. Their flavors may mix and the phrase “hot cup of coffee” may acquire a new meaning.
As a safety feature, the Salton CG7W Coffee and Spice Grinder stops running if its lid is removed. This does not only prevent the beans or spices from getting thrown out of the container, but also keeps your fingers from getting accidentally caught in the blades.
