I was dead wrong about cheap burr grinders for years

I used to swear by my $30 blade grinder thinking it was fine for my morning brew. Then my buddy brought over his $60 Mr. Coffee burr grinder from Target and I laughed at him. He made me do a side by side taste test with the same beans and I couldn't believe the difference. The grounds were way more even and my pour over actually tasted clean instead of muddy. I grabbed one for myself last week and now I feel like an idiot for wasting 4 years of bad coffee.

Wait, Mr. Coffee actually makes a decent burr grinder?

I was surprised too at first, man. A buddy of mine picked one up on a whim and I tried it at his place, honestly it's not bad at all for the money.
