Lodos coffee grinders are equipped with steel milled grinding burrs, which are made on automatic machines and are professionally hardened. This proven method of production guarantees very long and reliable life. The guarantee for the grinding burrs is 10 years, but we can say from experience that you can use the grinders for decades if you care for them with the affection they deserve. This claim can be validated by the fact that the grinders, which made using the same technology for almost 100 years, are still fully functional.
Thanks to the larger and more polished grinding burrs (compared to other models of Lodos coffee grinders), the Lodos Istanbul coffee grinder is suitable for grinding coffee from very fine (for a cezve) to coarse ( for a French press). However when grinding on the coarser setting, the results can be slightly inconsistent due to the unanchored axis, and so we would recommend this grinder for your fine-grinding needs. It is, however, necessary to be aware of the fact that if you are grinding on the very fine setting (e.g. for a cezve) the burrs can get abraded which shortens the lifespan of the grinder.
