- The cafe-grade hand grinder. From V60-fine to French-press-coarse, perfectly repeatable.
- Long description
- The hand grinder we hand out at every workshop and use behind the bar for special brews. 39mm Nitro-blade hardened-steel burrs, 40g hopper, numbered detented grind settings — same setting tomorrow = same grind tomorrow. The grinder we'd recommend to anyone starting out who doesn't want to upgrade in 12 months. Quiet enough to use at 6am without waking the household. German-made; built to outlive your espresso machine.

Frequently asked questions
Why is it THB 12,500? That's a lot.
It's the price of a once-in-a-decade purchase. A C40 outlives most THB 30,000+ electric grinders for filter — the burrs hold their edge for 10+ years of household use. If you only buy one piece of coffee gear, buy a grinder. Everything else flows from grind quality.
Can I use it for espresso?
Yes — but it's slow (45-60 seconds for 18g) and the espresso end of the dial is at the very fine edge of where the burrs are designed to grind. For daily espresso, a dedicated electric grinder is better. For occasional espresso + daily filter, C40 is genuinely versatile.
What grind settings for what brewer?
Espresso: 8-11 clicks. V60: 20-22 clicks. Aeropress: 16-20. French press: 28-32. These are starting points — dial in by taste. The numbered detents mean you can return to a known-good setting after switching brewer.
Warranty + repair?
2-year manufacturer warranty. Comandante service all parts (burrs, axles, springs) for life — we coordinate parts orders directly with the German service centre if anything wears out.
Alternative if I can't afford this?
1Zpresso K-Pro at THB 6,500 — similar build quality, slightly slower grind. Or Hario Skerton Pro at THB 2,200 — entry-level, fine for V60 but inconsistent for espresso. Avoid blade grinders entirely.
