Grinders
The best burr grinders under £100 in the UK, and what they can't do
Most burr grinders under £100 are built for filter coffee, not espresso. Here's what this budget can and can't do, with UK prices checked on 28 Sep 2026.
Once you've got a machine, a few extras can help you get more from it. This list covers grinders, milk frothers, coffee scales, pour-over kettles, a tamper, a milk jug, espresso glasses and a descaler, each with the facts and a dated UK price. My full guides add the downsides and who each isn't for. No brand pays for a place.
