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

That was my 4th Timemore manual coffee grinder purchase. Another cool birthday gift for a friend, coffee enthusiast. Time ago, I've got one for myself, Slim, then time to time was buying for friends. Everyone loves theirs. Slightly deferent models in purchase history, but all of them get strong, solid construction, smooth torsion, provide quick and consistent grind. Easy to use, easy to adjust and clean. Few "clicks" and you change the taste of your coffee beans dramatically.At home, I use Mazzer Philos, but Timemore is always with me then going outdoor, cabins, run-away weekends, business travels, conferences - even abroad. It was with me in Mexico, Edinburgh, Dublin, Lisbon.It might look pricy, but it is one-time purchase, and Timemore grinders definitely worth the price. If you are coffee enthusiast, especially "pour over" person - mast have.

Very classy item. High quality metal components. Smooth operation. Grinds a cup for pour over in less than a minute. Easily pack for travel or use at home for the simplicity and quiet.

After my Porlex grinder's ceramic burrs started to dull (and the handle attachment began to strip completely) I knew it was time for a new coffee grinder. This time I opted for a slight upgrade to what I'd heard was a more consistent and reliable grinder. I can confidently say that this grinder offers an excellent value for the results it provides. Sure there are higher quality grinders available for those seeking to make smaller gains in flavor and consistency but I think this grinder offers that sweet spot of quality, value, and performance. Why?- The grinds are very consistent and it grinds perfectly for pour overs, Aeropress brews, drip, and French press coffee methods. If you are looking for an espresso grinder, opt for Timemore's ESP series for more fine tuned (and finer) grinding offerings. Or at that level you may want to consider a higher end grinder.- This grinder is easy to use and grinds pretty fast in my experience, certainly faster than my old Porlex did. The finer your grind preference the longer and harder you'll have to grind but I've never found it to be a "slow grinder."- Every piece of this grinder is built with quality. It all assembles together perfectly and is durably built of high end materials. It feels good to hold and use.- This grinder is easy to disassemble and clean too. I appreciate that they include a brush to do so.- It looks really nice!Long story short I foresee this being my go to coffee grinder for a long time. I'm really happy with the results I'm getting from it and my coffee cups taste great. I'd recommend it.

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.

I'm an average coffee drinker. I simply wanted something with good build quality, not too expensive and that wouldn't take too long to grind my coffee beans unlike the cheap plastic grinder I had.This one is great, it takes less than a minute to grind my beans for the french press and the process of using its own container as measure cup makes it easy to use, the bottom container fits perfectly into its top opening so I only have to put them together and flip it so I don't drop coffee beans by accident.This is a great tool. Worth the money.
