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.
