Best Coffee Grinders for Basket

course setting on the grinder and have been moving the dial to a smaller grind on each pot( i want to see how fine a grind you can go before grinds over-flow the basket to get the strongest coffee!

the grinds all come out with a light tap when tipped into a bowl or directly into a drip brewer's basket.

first, i wanted the beans to continue falling into the grind unit even when very few beans remain (on my first unit i had to constantly take the lid off and push the beans while grinding.) second,

however, when it arrived i found that my espresso portafilter (the basket that holds the coffee) wouldn't fit into the grinder's holder.
