The de facto standard entry level grinder for espresso is the Iberital MC2 from Happy Donkey.

It is easily adjustable for any grind - just turn the bean hopper a little more one way or t'other. I bought mine as an 'entry level' but after a couple of months see no reason to spend more on another grinder. What could a more expensive grinder do that mine doesn't - genuine question for the baristas.

I took advice in that cheaper grinders are not burr grinders and you need a burr grinder to get good grinding. The Dualit is a burr grinder, in your budget and I thoroughly recommend one. I think I paid £69 - maybe £61 - there is a thread about them somewhere - here - which was a follow on from an 'Aquisitions' post. If you go this route, wash the grounds bin in fabric conditioner periodically to remove static electrical charge - which sends grounds floating about in the air.
