TIMEMORE Chestnut C3 ESP Pro Manual Coffee Grinder, Stainless Steel S2C Conical Burr Hand Coffee Grinder with Foldable Handle, Adjustable Grind Setting for Espresso to French Press - Black

The build quality and the experience of using this grinder is incredible. I have been able to reliably create better pour overs across light, medium, and dark roast coffees at home than I have ever been able to order from cafes. The recommended grind settings are a little too fine for me, but 17-20 clicks from closed is perfect for V60 filters (for me).Easy to grip, easy to adjust, easy to grind, looks great. The grinder is full of subtle design choices that speak to a care and craftsmanship I dont encounter often. The inner surfaces of the receptacle cup are chamfered to ease pouring. The threaded section is triple threaded so you dont have to turn it a bunch of times to release it. You can easily measure out beans into the cup and then invert the main grinder onto the threaded section to transfer beans without spilling. The burr adjustment mechanism is recessed so you can stand the upper section of the grinder up without it tipping over. And on and on. It is excellent. I bet there are better grinders out there but I dont really care. Timemore has won me over.

This is the most wonderful hand grinder I've ever used! It is so smooth to work and it's beautiful to boot! There are numerous adjustments for all your coffee needs and the ground coffee is as tasty as any that I've gotten from even a ceramic grinder. Totally worth the price!

While I am not stupid, it took me a while to understand how to adjust the grinder setting. In my opinion, the instructions are not clear. After figuring it out, I am extremely pleased with how it works. Yes, the threads are super fine on the cup that catches the grounds, you simply need to be conscious of that and respect it. A video an older woman posted helped tremendously. I had my doubts about pour over coffee. After purchasing everything I needed, it produces a fantastic cup of coffee!! Yes it takes effort and it is time consuming and can be messy, but the quality of coffee is amazing! I searched Google for how many grams of coffee beans to use for a 13 ounce cup of coffee and it recommend around 26 grams. For me, that is insane. I use 13 grams and I am pleased with the strength of the coffee and flavor. By the way, it doesn't hurt to have a quality kitchen scale!! I use a paper filter in my pour over device mostly for ease of cleaning.The grinder is extremely well made and heavy duty. They engineered the handle perfectly. It operates easily and smoothly. You definitely know when you have finished grinding all of your coffee beans!!! I very highly recommend this product.Friday the 13th 2024. September.

Nice little grinder. Have used it daily for several months now. Works well with both lighter roast dry beans and oilier darker roasts.Only wish the capacity was a bit bigger as it maxes out at about 1/3 cup.

The precision grind and easily adjustable dial accommodate various brewing methods. This model offers superior ease of use and more consistent particle size compared to my previous ceramic grinder.

I’ve been using an electric grinder for my espresso and just not getting a good shot with my bottomless portafilter. Bought the C3Pro ESP since you anre able to dial in a better for espresso. I went from having my shots spray all over to getting a beautiful single stream with incredible creama. I am a wimp and had difficulty at first using this, but another reviewer had mentioned grinding at an angle so was not to get too many beans trying to grind at once and that worked for me. I also use a rubber jar opener to hold the grinder just to give myself a little bit of extra leverage. my husband has no issue using the grinder at all. I’m so happy with the quality of the grinder. It is all metal and the folding handle is easy to use. It is very sturdy, heavy, and well-made.

This is the perfect grinder to get into coffee as a long term hobby. It is well built, extremely enjoyable to use, and if you plan on drinking anything except espresso it gets the job done great. I use an Aeropress almost everyday and I switch which beans I'm using month to month, and it has done a great job for the past 2 months so far. A lot of people online recommend buying a $100+ grinder, but I think this one will last a long time and do as much as I plan on doing for the foreseeable future.If you're getting into drinking coffee as a hobby or want to get a good quality gift for a coffee drinker who wants to start using beans, I highly recommend this coffee grinder!

This is a solidly constructed yet light device that easily produces very consistently sized grounds thanks to burr grinding. Easy to adjust ground size via a screw on underside. Using hand crank is straightforward, but lift it straight up and off center arm rather than twisting. Doesn’t take long to get feel for when all beans have been ground. Holds enough beans for an 8 oz. cup. Seems this grinder maximizes rather than diminishes coffee aroma and taste.
