Hi Nikos1121......a question....we have never been able to find a good coffee grinder that can make the fine grind for Greek style coffee....any recommendations...?

.....buying Bravo coffee from US distributors is too expensive...and often the coffee is so old it doesn't make a good cup.

Regards.

I own this. I don't recall the price being this high. I think I paid half that, But I love this as you can change the grind from coarse to fine. The more important thing are the beans. I buy the beans green and roast them myself for regular grind. For Greek coffee, I'll grind fine or simply go to Starbucks or any other coffee place and ask them to fine grind for me 1/4 to 1/2 lb. Once you open the package of ground coffee it will go stale within 3 to 4 days...say for sure within 7 days. If you put in the refrig, it will go bad even faster. So, you buy the smallest amount you can. I'll drink Greek coffee maybe once per month. So, I'll grind a batch. But, you can easily get in the habit of it everyday. If so, you need to get a Flin-Johnny (That's how you pronounce it) online or from a Mediterranean food market.
