Delonghi DCG49 Burr Coffee Grinder
3 oz whole bean capacity Coffee Grinder
This versatile coffee grinder prepares beans for any method of coffee brewing. Three different grind settings offer a range of grinds from coarse for coffee percolators to medium for drip coffeemakers to fine for espresso makers. Whichever grind you prefer, the burr grinding wheels always produces grounds of a uniform texture. The transparent lid easily pops off to load the grinder with whole beans. A side button grinds up to 16 tablespoons of coffee into the transparent container below with either a constant or pulsing touch. The grounds container sticks a bit upon removal, but has a lift-off lid to keep grounds from spilling out while you are tugging at it. The upper grinding mechanism also detaches for easy cleaning. For safety, the grinding wheels stop if the grounds or whole bean containers are not in place. DeLonghi offers a one-year limited warranty on defects in materials and workmanship for this burr coffee grinder. –Cristina Vaamonde

Delonghi DCG49 Burr Coffee Grinder Reviews
Gave it away after 2 uses
I don’t understand why the manufacturers of these machines seem to think people want to stand there with their finger on the button while the grinder works its way loudly and slowly through a container of coffee beans. A pretty basic design flaw, in my opinion. I have better things to do with my time. Gave it away to a yard sale after 2 uses.
clogs
This dcg49 clogs at least once on a 2 oz grind. You have to take apart and clear grinds from chute. I wanted to like, but in frustration returned to store.
Forget about it!
I tried, I really tried to like this grinder. But after weeks of frustrating shaking, clogging & more grounds spilled on the counter than in my coffee filter, I gave up and bought…a manual grinder! I may expend more energy in the grinding, but none in the clean up the DeLonghi DCG49 required.
you get what you pay for
The cheapest burr grinder I found.
PROS
o RUGGED! I am using & abusing it in IRAQ!
o A decent upgrade from a blade grinder
CONS
o Needs to be cleaned 2 or 3 times per round of grinding clogs easily
o Static electricity causes ginds to “spring” from the catch basket, it’s messy!
o Plastic container catch basket clumsy design
o needs to be shaken gently while grinding to keep beand flowing from the hopper to grinding chamber
Works fine in the field (military). I’ll buy a better one when I get home!
Grind away
What a cool little gadget…you put whole coffee beans in and it grinds them just the way you want. Who would have though… a little noisesy, but works very well. clean.
