Grinders: Bodum Antigua Grinder
Previous Product	Grinders	Next Product

The Bodum Antigua grinder is a good "starter" grinder using conical burrs. It can grind from a medium espresso grind up to a coarse drip pot grind, and a passable press pot grind. There are two models - normal, and metal.

Will Taylor	12.04.2001	Rating: 6.4
Bottom Line: Hard to beat for $60, but only for coarse grinds.

Vic Lam (quality: 8.0)	05.17.2004	Rating: 7.2
Product Reviewed: Antigua
Bottom Line: Versatile, barely passable for espresso after modification.

Tim Stob (quality: 1.4)	10.17.2000	Rating: 2.0
Bottom Line: Crap

Thomas Bafia (quality: 9.0)	06.03.2001	Rating: 7.2
Bottom Line: Not a great grinder, but a good one. A step up from a whirly blade grinder.

Stuart Rennie (quality: 8.0)	05.29.2009	Rating: 7.4

Bottom Line: It sounds like 2 angry Ninja's dueling to the death over the lost scolls of Tu-Pei (whatever that means).

Steve S (quality: 7.0)	02.27.2002	Rating: 8.0
Bottom Line: It works and the heart of the unit is quite solid. It deserves an 8 overall.

Steve Langenwalter (quality: 4.5)	05.07.2000	Rating: 10.0

Bottom Line: The metal-bodied version (tweaked) is just fine.

Russell Malm (quality: 6.0)	05.31.2003	Rating: 8.6
Bottom Line: Great, uniform, static free burr grinder for drip, french press, vac pot and chemex.

Bottom Line: I may pay $30 for this machine, but no more...anything more, and I would consider upgrading to something better.

Roger Grantham (quality: 4.5)	09.03.2001	Rating: 6.8
Bottom Line: Great step up from rotary-blade grinder.

Robert Seidlitz	08.24.2006	Rating: 8.0
Product Reviewed: Antigua
Bottom Line: a very good grinder for all needs other than espresso; plus, watch out for static

Robert Rosenberg (quality: 6.8)	01.19.2005	Rating: 6.6
Product Reviewed: Antigua
Bottom Line: Very good consistency for the price

Robert Noles (quality: 5.0)	08.14.2001	Rating: 6.8
Bottom Line: Good introductory burr grinder

Phillip Quattrocchi (quality: 6.8)	02.08.2002	Rating: 5.2
Bottom Line: Its a good starter or upgrade for your first burr grinder.

Per O. Johansen (quality: 4.0)	01.29.2000	Rating: 6.4
Bottom Line: Looks nice, but too static and noisy...

Michael Stano (quality: 6.0)	01.16.2004	Rating: 6.8
Product Reviewed: Antiqua
Bottom Line: Like the stainless steel, but one unit broke, and replacement unit clogs.

Michael Griffin (quality: 2.3)	02.01.2000	Rating: 8.6
Bottom Line: One of the best home grinders I have found for the price.

John T (quality: 5.0)	06.02.2008	Rating: 8.2
Product Reviewed: Antigua
Bottom Line: Great product, but do NOT buy this machine if you want it for espresso - it produces a coarser grind than did its older Antigua brother.
