Manual Coffee Grinder, Stainless Steel Conical Burr Hand Coffee Grinder Mill, Adjustable for Fine/Coarse Grind for home, travel, and Coffee lovers Best Gifts (Black with Glass Container)

This coffee grinder is a whole lot easier to use than I thought it would be. We have an electric grinder but this hand powered grinder is so much more fun. Took me a while to understand how to adjust the coarse and fine textures. Don't do what I did and let the whole thing fall apart! Works to hold the handle in one position and then turn the thumbscrew on the bottom. I had to experiment around a little as it does have a sort of "guide" which is meaningless if you've never had to figure out what the numbers mean and there is nowhere to adjust to any numbers anyway. I got this to go with a pour-over coffee arrangement, for the full coffee experience but that is in the future. Right now I find that filling the hopper with beans and then grinding the whole thing on a sort of medium texture gives exactly enough for one cup of coffee in the French press that tastes really good! As you can tell, I'm very pleased with this grinder.

The adjustable grind settings allow easy switching between fine and coarse grinds, making it perfect for espresso or French press coffee. The stainless-steel construction feels sturdy and durable, and the burr mechanism ensures a consistent grind every time. This is crucial for optimal flavor extraction. Cleaning is a breeze, and I appreciate that it’s easy to use, simply fill the hopper, adjust the grind setting, and start grinding! It’s also compact and lightweight, making it great for travel. Overall, this manual coffee grinder delivers quality performance and freshness, making it a must-have for any coffee lover. Highly recommended!

I really like this grinder, I actually have two of them. A grinder full of beans is the perfect amount of coffee for my large coffee cup. You can also adjust the grind of the beans from very fine to coarse.

I like this manual grinder for its speed and the visual feedback provided by the glass ground holder. Once you find the right dial setting, it grinds quickly and lets you see exactly how much coffee you've produced.However, figuring out the ideal dial setting takes some trial and error. Unlike my other grinder, which provided clear instructions on how many clicks to adjust for different coffee types, this one, per their product page, only offers vague settings of "coarse," "medium," and "fine." Determining the right grind for espresso required experimentation.My initial attempts resulted in grounds that were too fine and took far too long to produce - almost 8 minutes for a single shot! That was with the dial set about 4 clicks from the finest setting. I eventually found that around 10 clicks produced a decent double-shot espresso.Pros:* Fast grinding once you find the right adjustment (at least 8 clicks counter-clockwise from the finest setting for me)* Produces decent espresso with the right setting (around 10 clicks counter-clockwise for me)* Transparent glass holder allows you to monitor the amount of ground coffeeCons:* Lacks clear instructions on grind settings* The product page suggests the dial settings are imprecise, with only three broad ranges - coarse, medium, fine.* Some plastic parts are present inside the bean chamber, which might be a concern for durability.Overall, this manual grinder is a good option if you're willing to experiment to find the perfect settings. The speed and visual feedback are definite pluses, but the lack of clear instructions and the presence of plastic parts can be drawbacks.

Nice design, with precision bearings used on the crank shaft for smooth operation.The body is black plastic, and it grinds coffee smoothly with consistent grind size.I use this grinder for making pour over coffee, and it's nice to have a quiet grinding option in the morning instead of running the noisy electric coffee grinder.Having a clear coffee collector on the bottom is a nice feature, as you can visually see your progress while grinding. Grinding 15 grams of coffee for one cup takes about 57 rotations of the crank. The crank handle is comfortable in the hand.Also included in the package is a drawstring storage bag and a little cleaning brush.Overall, this is a very solid coffee grinder for a reasonable price, and deserving of 5 stars for combining excellent grinding functionality at a reasonable price.
