Copied!

(Arnsberg, April 2024) The renowned test magazine "Haus & Garten Test" has thoroughly evaluated the high-quality CM1012 coffee grinder from the new GRAEF coffee world and awarded it the grade "very good" (1.3). In the categories of "Functionality," "Ease of Use," "Build Quality," and "Safety," the grinder achieved a "Very Good" rating in each. Particularly praised were the material processing and the exceptionally quiet operation. The CM1012 also impressed with its burr grinder - the grind size can be adjusted continuously, allowing for the finest adjustments for every brewing method.

The exquisite coffee grinder CM1012 relies on quality from Italy. The professional burr grinder made of hardened steel ensures a consistent grinding result for every coffee variation and preserves the aroma of the coffee beans due to the low heat generated during grinding. The 310-watt strong grinder features an ACE system. This prevents the formation of unwanted clumps in the coffee grounds and actively counteracts the electrostatic charging of the ground coffee. According to the editorial team, the aroma partner is suitable for all GRAEF portafilter machines and is a "device for coffee connoisseurs who put a lot of love into the brewing process."

The editorial team also tested the electric coffee grinder CM252. The particularly quiet model was awarded a grade of 1.4 ("very good"). The two filter coffee machines FK402 and FK512 from GRAEF were rated "good" (1.5).
