Ergonomics and style

In addition to coffee machines and coffee makers, the assortment of the Italian company De'Longhi also includes devices for grinding beans. The junior representative of the line of knife coffee grinders is the KG 40 device.

Like the older brother De'Longhi KG 49, the "fortieth" model is made of black matte plastic and has an hourglass shape. The walls of the bowl and the lid are transparent, which allows you to control the degree of grinding. On the bottom, in addition to the rubberized non-slip base, there is a compartment for winding the mains cable.

For 12 cups at a time

De'Longhi KG 40 has a Push to grind system, which involves turning on the coffee grinder by pressing on the closed lid. 30 to 90 grams of beans can be placed in a container with a stainless steel knife (from 3 to 4 to 12 cups of coffee). But with a smaller volume, the grinding quality deteriorates significantly, which is associated with the high location of the blades in the bowl. In addition, the solid capacity of the coffee grinder is reflected in the overall dimensions, which should be taken into account when choosing it.

Thanks to the 170 W motor, the grinding process is fast, the housing does not get very hot, and the grinding is characterized by a high degree of uniformity. The size of the fractions depends on the duration of the device. You can get both a fairly coarse grind, for example, for drip coffee makers, and a fine “to the dust” — for the Turks.

Ease of use

The bowl of the De'Longhi KG 40 is removable, which simplifies maintenance, including the possibility of washing it under water. The coffee grinder comes with a dry cleaning brush. So that it is not lost, a compartment for storing it is provided in the upper part of the case, but with this arrangement, the device becomes a couple of centimeters higher.

According to users, due to the non-hermetic fit of the lid to the base, after grinding, coffee dust invariably wakes up on the table, which can be considered a shortcoming of the model. Otherwise, De'Longhi KG 40 due to its large capacity and high grinding quality can be recommended to those who drink coffee often and in large quantities.
