Capresso Infinity Plus
Entry-level conical burr grinder for drip and cold brew · Reviewed by Katie · amazon.com live, Sept 24 2026
Why it scored a 76
The Capresso Infinity Plus earns satisfaction of 88 from a 4.4-star average across 1,689 ratings, better than the OXO Brew Conical Burr Grinder's 4.3. The rest of the rubric is more modest. Features score 66: 16 settings from extra fine to very coarse, an 11-oz hopper and a 4-oz grounds container, and little else. Quality is 74 because the body is ABS plastic. At $98.00 value is 84, but the OXO costs 99 cents more and adds a 12-oz hopper and 2 years of warranty against Capresso's 1 year.

Should you buy the Capresso Infinity Plus?
The Capresso Infinity Plus is for a drip or cold brew drinker upgrading from a blade grinder who wants something simple under $100. At $98.00 it ranks #8 of 10 in our Coffee & Espresso Grinders category. The OXO Brew Conical Burr Grinder is the better buy at $98.99, with a bigger hopper and double the warranty. If you want a grinder you can repair for years, the Baratza Encore is $149.95.
Where it earns its score
- Happy owners. 4.4 stars across 1,689 ratings gives it a satisfaction score of 88, behind only the Breville Smart Grinder Pro and the Baratza Virtuoso+.
- Low-heat grinding. A gear reduction motor turns the burrs slower, which Capresso says cuts friction and heat.
- Wide range. 16 settings run from extra fine to very coarse for percolators and cold brew.
- Cheapest here. At $98.00 it is the lowest price in the category.
What to know first
- Warranty is the lowest factor at 55. Capresso gives 1 year, half of what OXO offers on its $98.99 grinder.
- Plastic build. The ABS body keeps the weight to 4 lb, and quality scores 74 as a result.
- Basic features. Features score 66, the lowest in the group: no digital timer, no portafilter holder and no real espresso range.

The Capresso Infinity Plus scores 76, a Fair Buy that ranks #8 in our Coffee & Espresso Grinders category, helped by Satisfaction (88), Value (84) and Reliability (80).
