Why we love it
The Grind Control brews into a carafe, a tall cup or a travel mug without an adapter, which is the practical difference between a machine one person uses and a machine a household uses. Eight strength settings and an adjustable grind give it more range than the single dial most grind-and-brews offer, and a pre-ground option means a bag of decaf doesn't strand the machine. Worth noting: Breville calls it an adjustable integrated grinder and doesn't state the burr type in the listing.
