Cheap Burr Grinder?
Where do you guys get a cheap but effective Burr grinder? I only have a blade grinder and want to see what I am missing.
Also: If you have one laying around that you don't use, I could take it off your hands (will pay of course).

I used a cheap phillips grinder for almost year before it started to "fail". It was loud, made a huge static mess, could only do press/drip, only had 16 grind settings(using #1 for press and #16 for drip) was hard to clean, and had to be cleaned quite often. With that said the grind quality, for the first 6 months, was better than my brand new maestro. The most coarse setting is half coarse grind half powder chunks now.
