New Burr Grinder

Woohoo. Congrats! I know what you mean. Unfortunately our burr grinder burr-ned up (ha ha) in the house fire. Couldn't bring myself to buy a blade grinder so we've just gone back to buying coffee pre-ground. I really do miss the days of roasting our own coffee and grinding right before brewing. I had a Breville grinder.

Enjoy your brew!

What model is that? My Macap is only is only used for espresso and my wife uses on old Krupps for her drip and it's nearing the end. Looks a lot like the Cuisinart.

That's the downside to a stepless grinder; adjustments from espresso to drip are a hassle.

Yes - it is the Cuisinart, DBM-8 http://www.cuisinart.com/products/coffee_bar/dbm-8.html

I believe it's a bit cheaper than your macap, but it does have an adjustable grind
