How we countedThe count uses each product's current fit ratings for “A gentler grinder for early mornings”, “Even, clear filter brews”, and “Static control for tidier grounds”. A need with no documented match is not counted.

How we calculatedA grinder counts here only if it publishes its burr diameter as a number. Diameter matters no more than burr geometry and alignment do. The median draws on the 28 of 39 models that publish comparable figures.
