It grinds very fine and does a good job. I don't get much below 10 on the grind setting (goes from 0-40) for the moka pot so there are much finer grind setting than I use. I believe the problem that would arise for espresso would be how consistent the super fine grinds would be. Coarse grinds for press pot or cowboy coffee is no problem and it does an even job with little dust.
