TIMEMOREChestnut C3S Pro Manual Coffee Grinder, Stainless Steel S2C Conical Burr Coffee Grinder, Hand Coffee Grinder with Foldable Handle, Adjustable Grind Setting for Travel/Camping/Home, Black

I am no coffee aficionado but I wanted to put my foot into the world of high quality grinding. This is really a well made piece of equipment that feels like an affordable piece of luxury as well as something that is pleasurable to use. It feels like quality from another era. It works amazingly well. I found the initial instructions a little confusing but that was partly me and my impatience to get a caffeine fix. Tip - figure out how it works before you urgently want a cup of coffee.

Great grinder. I have this one and bought the same one as a gift. It grinds perfectly, and you can easily set the size.

Really nicely manufactured. Grounds are very consistent. I like it! If you are wanting a lot of grounds, you may have to fill the grinder twice, it will grind 30 grams of coffee beans at a time

The media could not be loaded. I never expected this level of build quality. As a hand grinder, I expected something more “basic,” but that’s not the case. It’s incredibly well-built; everything operates smoothly, and it has great features like the ability to fold the top part. There’s no metallic smell, and it comes with everything you need for cleaning and transportation.I really love it. It’s very easy to use, and I can say it delivers great results in grinding. It seems reliable and quick. You won’t spend more than 1 to 1.5 minutes grinding your coffee (of course, depending on how much you use).This is a grinder that will last.

Got this to replace my other travel grinder that was good, but took quite a bit of time to grind my beans for my aeropress. This grinder is extremely high quality and very beefy. Solid construction, nice carrying case and with the grind settings visible with dots to indicate larger or smaller grind settings it makes adjustments quick and easy.It takes less than 30 seconds to grind my beans now vs 3-4 min. It is amazing. Handle for the grinder moves smoothly and easily.Heavier than I ideally wanted for airline travel, but I will take the hit to have the speed when making a cup of coffee. The handle does not break down to fit inside the grinder like my older one, but it hangs down the side - see the photos - not a game changer, but means It may take some creativity when packing in a suitcase as you have to allow for the handle. It does bend if you want to leave it attached at the top, but it may pack better separately.

First of all, this grinder works well for the application. Second, the very minimal documentation suggests not operating the grinder below six clicks looser than the 0 position, at which point the burrs are locked. This is intended to prevent damage to the burrs. I think that the grind realized from six clicks is slightly too coarse for a cezve, and have experimented with finer grinds. I've found that 3 and 4 clicks are too fine: the particles won't sink in the cup before the drink is cold. Five clicks is just about perfect, I think: the burr spins without any sound when the hopper is empty, there is quick extraction without over-extraction, and the grounds sink in the cup to give you a few nice, clean sips of coffee. (I use 7 g of coffee, 70 g of water, and sometimes 5 g of sugar in an 80 ml cup.) In addition, grinding at 3 clicks takes more than twice the time to grind the same weight of beans as doing the job at 5 clicks. Your mileage may differ, of course, but I'd suggest that 5 clicks is the sweet spot for this style of coffee from this grinder.

This grinder is very well made and amazing quality. Unfortunately, the description led me to believe that the handle was foldable. The handle is not foldable.

Excelente compra. Molino de muy buena calidad. Se lleva a todo lugar gracias a su bolsa para guardarla. Se desarma muy fácilmente permitiendo su limpieza. No dejarla caer ni golpear ya puede sufrir abolladuras. La uso para molienda medias y medias gruesas. Pero tiene suficientes cliks para ajuste de molienda según necesidad.
