TIMEMORE Chestnut C2 MAX Manual Coffee Grinder: Adjustable Coarseness, Capacity 30g with Stainless Steel Conical Burr - Perfect Hand Grinder for Office, Home, Travel, and Camping Review

So I ordered this grinder because I wanted to spend under $100 and didn't want a cheap grinder with an uneven grind. Our espresso machine is of high quality and is very sensitive to the fineness and consistency of the grind. 17 grams of beans makes a double serving in my machine and the grind is absolutely perfect (I set the grind to 10). I've experimented with 12 grinds and it was too much, but 10 is perfect for our machine. So it's ok, you have to sand by hand. It's worth it. I think the…

This is my first manual coffee grinder. I read many reviews before deciding. I was hesitating between this and Java Press. The Java Press is made of ceramic while the Timemore is made of stainless steel. Ceramics take longer to grind. I chose Timemore when I saw this new discounted edition. So the price I bought was $67.98. It's almost twice the size of JavaPress, but this one feels more solid and metallic. The product has arrived. I tried. It took me 1 minute (about 65 turns) to get 25 grams…

Very reliable grinder at an affordable price. Overall I love this grinder, in fact I use it instead of my Oxogerne grinder. It's definitely not the best manual grinder but I bought it in the heat of the day and for $55 it's the best grinder on the market. The grind is fairly consistent across the Aeropress/Spray range. It could be called espresso, but I won't even try, and for a French press, grind uniformity suffers. The non-slip surface is actually not as comfortable as I first thought…

I have bought several manual grinders over the last few years to find one that would give great grinding results and last a long time. Setup, some fail or fail after some time. This grinder has very fine adjustment, which is welcome, and holds adjustment very well. It grinds coffee quickly and efficiently, it's a pleasure to use. However, we only use a French press and this particular grinder cannot be recommended for this method as it produces very fine granules, almost dust, along with a…

I've been using a cheaper hand grinder with a ceramic grinder for about 4 years. I decided it was time for an update. Looking back, I should have bought this coffee grinder a long time ago. The build is amazing. The strong metal and good weight make it look like a premium coffee grinder. I use a French press so the setting is easy to adjust with crisp clicks to see where you are. The capacity is almost 30 g. Most beans I can get are 27-29g, but 30g seems like too much. This is my only complaint

GENERAL Premium cut quality at an affordable price. Great for pourovers. It's nice to have a hand sander to take with you when travelling, camping etc and for days at home when you have a little more time to do everything by hand it provides a nice soothing break from the rest of the day WHY A HAND SANDER? - Mobility. You can take it with you on the road, on a hike, etc. - Noise. Not waking up the house - ritual. The grinding and brewing process is both pleasant and soothing. Gets me…
