The best value burr grinder is the Baratza Encore. You can buy those cheaper ones, but they won't be as consistent, and will probably break in about 5 years or less. What I like about Baratza is they don't ever want you to throw your grinder away. All parts are available for reasonable prices and user replaceable. It's refreshing for a company to have that philosophy. Yes, it's $150 but you will have it for a long time, it will just work, and do a good job. It's far from the best grinder out there(don't go down that rabbit hole) but it is the best value. I think he even sells them at the Roastarie.
