What kind of grinder should I get for espresso beans? I have seen lots of cheap coffee grinders. But the cheapest espresso ones I can find are $400 or over!

Get a burr grinder and make sure it’ll grind extra fine — espresso needs to be ground into extremely fine particles so it’ll tamp properly. I bought one on Amazon.com a couple of years ago for under $50 — I think it was a Melitta.
