Does this product work for dispensing ground coffee?

I have not used this product for ground coffee so I'm not sure if it would work well.

I purchased 2 of this item; one for sugar and one for creamer ... they both work very well.As there are different options for quantities dispensed, I feel confident this product will work for ground coffee as well.

Although I haven't tried it, I would say yes - with ONE condition: the filters are paper so the grounds can/will fall out if you fill them too far. You may have some spill out as you are taking them out.

I am no help here. I have only used it for coffee. IT seems like it would work fine, but that is only a guess on my part. I would say it is one of the best grinders for coffee that I have owned.

I've used it with dark roasts. Not ground for French Press but moderately coarse. This grinder is bad about scattering coffee to the point that we have to keep it on a mat to avoid scattering all over the counter. It develops static - enough that ground coffee clings to the hopper and the inner areas of the grinder. The hopper doesn't quite snap in place fully, so we have to hold it flush to the grinder when we use it. Other than those issues it does a good job of grinding the coffee.

I would imagine that if it can turn coffee beans to coffee grounds, that it could do the same for most similar items, but I'm honestly not sure. I could try it on mine for you and let you know the results if you'd like, I'm actually selling mine on Amazon.

It says in the instructions that you should only grind coffee with it, but I haven't tried anything else. Honestly, I can't think of a good reason why that wouldn't work. It is very small, though, so if capacity is what you're looking for it may not help anyway. It holds around 4 scoops- maybe a little more- of whole coffee beans in the hopper. Sorry, I couldn't be more help!

I am not sure, but our cafejo did come with an adapter to use ground coffee in.

It works better with coarser ground coffee. I have even used Folgers from Grogery store and it worked fine. If you grind your own coffee...just select a coarse grind.

No - The unit is designed to use only pods and can't be modified ( according to the company ) to accept ground coffee.

I have used it for rooibos and it catches most of the grounds, maybe not 100% but sufficient for me. I haven't used it for coffee, but I can't see why it wouldn't work.

It may if you do not grind the coffee too finely. Great idea. I'll give it a try and let you know

We only use the Illy pods and these work very well. I do not think you could use ground coffee with a "home made" filter since everything would become very messy and the machine would not work correctly.

Using this product is a great alternative when you run out of those prepackaged coffee packs. You can use any ground coffee with this product, just make sure you don't over fill the basket to where the lid wont close. I hope this answers your question.

yes, but don't recommend it. The whole purpose of the grind and brew is to have freshly ground beans for the most flavorful coffee.

Although I have ground only coffee beans in mine, it seems that any bean that is dry could be ground in this. Due to the price of this grinder however, I would check with the manufacturer first just to be on the safe side.

Coffee grounds can get pretty fine. My guess would be no. I think you'd have to get one made specifically for coffee. This would strain out some of the grounds but probably not all. Don't get me wrong, it's a fine mesh strainer, but fine coffee grounds are too much for any strainer.

This would not work with coffee beans or as a coffee grinder, it is to small to fill with coffee beans, stick with a regular coffee grinder .
