TIMEMORE Chestnut C2 Manual Coffee Grinder Capacity 25g with CNC Stainless Steel Tapered Burr - Internal Adjustable Setting, Double Bearing Positioning, French Press Coffee for Hand Grinder Gift

Gemini said I finally upgraded from a cheap electric blade grinder to the Chestnut C2S, and honestly, the difference in my morning coffee is night and day. The first thing you notice is the build quality. It feels really solid in your hand—the full metal body has a nice weight to it, and the textured grip makes it easy to hold onto while you’re grinding. It doesn't feel like a "budget" tool at all. As for the actual grinding, it’s surprisingly fast. I can get through about 20g of beans for a pour-over in roughly 40-45 seconds without much effort. The grind consistency is where this really shines; I'm getting much cleaner flavors now because the grounds are actually uniform. One thing to keep in mind: the 25g capacity is perfect for a single large cup of coffee. If you’re usually brewing for two people or making a big French press, you’ll definitely have to grind in two batches. Also, like most manual grinders, there's a bit of static, but a quick tap on the counter usually clears it up. If you’re looking to get into manual grinding without spending $200+, this is easily the best value for the money. Highly recommend.

Let me begin by stating that I am most definitely not a coffee expert or purist. I do enjoy great coffee and espresso when I can. I depend on others to make the truly good stuff for me, and I can readily tolerate mediocre coffee as well. I was impressed with the packaging and apparent quality of this grinder. It is packed with a cleaning brush and a sturdy fabric storage bag. The grinder seems to me to be well engineered and is heavily built. It is very easy to use and quickly grinds beans to the ideal coarsenes for my morning single cup k-cup brews. I have not used it for other grinds yet, but it has an impressive range of adjustability of coarseness. I assume it will produce other grinds as well as it does my typical one. The grinder is fairly easy to clean. I've not had this long, so I can't comment thoroughly on its longevity. The build quality seems to bode well for long-term functionality though. Pros: Well built, wide range of grinds, easy to use. Cons: Not much to note here, but its capacity might be insufficient for some. It holds enough beans to produce grounds for 1 to 1.5 cups of drip brew, so multiple refills would be needed to make a multi-cup pot of coffee.

If you're tired of noisy, clunky, motorized grinders that jolt you (and everyone else) awake in the morning, the TimeMore C5 Pro is your dream come true. This grinder is a masterpiece of simplicity and engineering. From the moment you hold it, you’ll feel the difference — solid all-steel construction, a satisfying weight that screams quality, not cheap plastic. It’s built like a tank, yet elegant in design. No cords, no motors, no fuss. Just smooth, effortless grinding that won’t wake a soul. The grind consistency is phenomenal — easily the most uniform I’ve ever seen in a manual grinder. Whether you're dialing in for espresso or coarser for French press, the adjustable settings give you total control. And because it’s manual, there’s no motor to burn out, no high-decibel whirring, and no ringing in your ears afterward. Just peace, quiet, and the rich aroma of freshly ground beans. It’s also incredibly portable — perfect for travel, camping, or just moving from kitchen to patio. Honestly, this grinder will probably outlive me, and I’m not mad about it. If you value craftsmanship, silence, and precision, and you’re done with loud, short-lived appliances, this is the grinder for you. Zero regrets. 100% satisfaction.

I recently picked up the OXO Outoor Rapid Brewer (like an Aeropress) for camping trips and have researched and shopped for a manual grinder for a long time but hadn't needed one till now. Since I was primarily looking for a grinder to use only while camping I didn't want to spend a ton, but still wanted some of the features, quality, durability and precision of a premium grinder. Based on comparison shopping, positive reviews, and value for features I decided to try the Timemore Chestnut C2 - and it was also on sale. Wow. I love this thing. The fit and finish is excellent and it's just so solidly built and beautifully designed. It is truly impressive. Grinding with the SS conical burr and well designed handle is so easy and smooth that I find it to be very satisfying and almost therapeutic. I easily found and set a grind size I'm happy with and have been using this grinder every morning since I bought it. The Chestnut C2 with the OXO Rapid Brewer makes a delicious concentrated cup of coffee which I quite enjoy as a latte. I'm looking forward to trying different grind settings on the Chestnut C2 for cold-brew and for pour-over coffee. I highly recommend the Timemore Chestnut C2 not only for the quality, features, value and performance, but also because of it's beautiful design and fit and finish. It's kind of weird but I look forward to using it every morning.

There’s another layer to coffee flavor, and a burr grinder is what brings it out. Doesn’t have to be this one, but this is a very high quality grinder. I think it only takes me about 90 seconds or so to grind it when fully filled with beans. It’s easy, and actually kind of nice to hand grind. The moment I opened the box I could see the quality of this device. And using it, the weight, and smooth operation confirms that this is a well made durable device. I’m glad I got the folding handle one, as it’s easier to store on the shelf and take with me if I do so. 10/10, highly recommend. It’s a lot of money for a grinder, but it’s well worth it in my opinion

This is a very well-made coffee grinder. I needed something that wouldn't take up much space on the countertop and this one fit the bill. A perk of the bigger grinders is that they often have built-in bean storage, but I'd rather keep my beans in a true airtight container, so what's the point of the storage? Overall, I'm happy with it, and the manual nature of this grinder makes it part of a grounding (pun intended) morning ritual. But here are the negatives: - The method of setting the grind size is less than ideal, as you have to count the number of clicks in the rotation and there's no way of marking where you're at. So if your household switches between grind sizes or a guest goes to use it, they'll have to dial it back to the starting point and set it all over again. - You can only fit about 2 scoops of beans in at one time, so if you're making more than, like 1 cup of coffee, it's going to be a lot of work. Positives: - no BPA or other plastic parts - easy travel size, fits nicely in small kitchen - aesthetically very pleasing, both visually and tactile sense - not many moving parts and none are electric, so I envision this lasting a very long time I originally bought the black version but it was hard to brush out all the grounds sticking to the sides when I couldn't see the grounds against the black. The white version solves that problem. The first couple times I used it, I kept removing the handle top to see if all the beans were ground but there's actually no need to do that because as soon as the handle rotates smoothly with no resistance, you're done.

Excellent build quality. All metal. I love this burr grinder. Every morning I use it to perfectly grind my coffee. It fits enough beans to fill 2 reusable k cups pods. Love it! I also love being intentional about my morning cup. It’s a nice ritual hearing the sound and smelling the ground beans.

I'm a machinist by trade, which means I make metal/plastic machinery components as my job full time. I'm used to picking apart manufactured items and seeing all the shortcuts that we're taken to make the part easy- not necessarily good. THIS COFFEE GRINDER defies all shortcuts. I am absolutely astounded at the quality of the parts, the tight fits, the easy breakdown for cleaning, the nice clean readable markings on where to set the burrs for various brew types - the grind is very consistent. The bottom 'grind catcher' is a double lead thread, which simply means in a half turn it will start to engage, not like a traditional thread and bolt that only has one place to catch and start. Everything about this screams quality and pride. It stays together very well while grinding (not like the handle flies off like other models I've had), it's easy to hold, and it is VERY easy to grind, doesn't feel like your getting 'rough spots' it just pushes straight thru. If I made this, I would do nothing but brag about it all day - it is a remarkable piece of quality workmanship

This is possibly the best hand grinder to get. The exterior surface is textured which offers a better grip when grinding. The build quality is not cheap and fully mettalic. The grinder comes with a pouch, cleaning brush,and the detachable top. I use the bottom collector scoop the coffee and it almost fills the top. Filling it to the max holds about 18g of beans. The grind have many sizes and they are clearly labeled for what type of coffee you want to prepare. The cost is great and the device is very robust. Grinding is very simple and you will feel the difference when you fully ground the coffee vs if there is more left to grind. Cleaning is also simple you can wash the collector. Use the brush to clear the bottom of the grinder and dump anything from the top. Highly recommend if you have the patuence to grind daily for the best coffee

ステンレスフィルター用に購入しました。 安い電動ミルでは調節出来ず、店で挽いて貰ってましたが、このミルで手軽に適度な挽き具合が得られて大満足です。

After 2 years of using, the grind is perfect, the quality is good, but don't wash it, just clean it with a brush

The quality of this product is top notch. This is my 3rd manual grinder. It is way more expensive but it’s all worth every penny. Smooth grinding and it is effortless than my old cheaper ones. Highly recommended.

I’ve been using the TIMEMORE Chestnut C2, and it’s an excellent manual coffee grinder. The build quality is solid, and the stainless steel burrs provide a consistent grind size. Adjusting the grind settings is easy, making it great for different brewing methods. It’s also compact and lightweight, perfect for travel. The only minor drawback is its small capacity, but overall, it’s a fantastic grinder for anyone serious about fresh coffee.
