The presence of a
timer in the design of the coffee grinder — a system that automatically turns off the engine after a certain time. In coffee grinders with different designs of the grinding system (see “Grinding system”), the features of the timer also differ. In models with knives, it actually plays the role of a grinding degree regulator (for more details, see “Adjusting the grind”). Models with millstones have a separate grinding degree control, which is independent of the operating time. Therefore, in this case, the timer plays the role of a kind of dispenser — you can set the coffee grinder so that it does not process the entire volume of the loaded coffee, but only part of it. This is useful given that it is freshly ground coffee that is considered the most delicious, and it often makes sense to prepare coffee for 1-2 portions, rather than large volumes.
Compartment for placing the power cord directly in the coffee maker. This feature greatly simplifies storage: when the device is not in use, the cord can be hidden inside the case, and it will not get tangled and interfere. Some models may have devices for uniform winding of the wire, which prevents bending and possible fractures.
