TIFU by no doing research on my grinder

I hope you are talking about the c3 esp pro. The c3s pro would still struggle to get the detailed grind size adjustment needed for espresso. https://eightouncecoffee.ca/blogs/news/a-guide-to-the-timemore-c3-hand-grinder-collection

Ajuda com Timemore C3 Esp

Boa noite, como vai? Cara eu vou falar com sinceridade pq foi o q fizeram cmg e o q realmente funcionou, o espresso é um processo muito complexo e muito fácil de errar, eu vou deduzir q sua maquina seja uma de entrada pelo seu moedor, caso não seja me corrija. O seu moedor não é para espresso! Eu di

Recommendations for an affordable [$100] burr grinder?

A cheaper alternative is a Timemore C3S at I think $50 in the US? This will do espresso but it takes about 150 turns to do so. There is an aftermarket adjustment ring that gives more settings. I had one for travel and used an adjustment between 6 and 7 clicks. 6 wouldn't pull, 7 flowed way too fast.

Hello Guys, I am about to buy my first coffee setup. I have always had instant coffee. Now I want to buy a good grinder (budget 5-6 k) and Coffee beans. So which grinder and type of coffee beans should I go for?

Handgrinding anyway is tedious for espresso, if espresso is the goal value for money purchase in 6k for espresso grinding is not possible. Closest will be a 10k kingk6 or 12k timemore whirlyMinus espresso capabilities- best handgrinder under 6k is 1zpresso q air. (c3s has nice metal build but the st

Bit the bullet

I had to decide between this and Timemore c3s. Made sense to go with this as I'm getting better grind adjustments, the same burr used in their Q standard version which costs 10k. And because I don't mind the lower capacity since 12 -15 grams is the max coffee I have at once. Also because it is compa

Timemore C3S vs C3 ESP for Espresso?

yes, for espresso, there is a considerable difference the C3S has a step size (for each click) of 83 microns, while on the C3ESP its 23 microns with the plate mod, the step size on C3S would change to 33 microns, as it has 30 clicks per turn, instead of the stock 12 clicks per turn on the C3S the di

I built DIALED — a coffee brewing app that translates any recipe to your specific grinder. Looking for feedback.

Hey, The app looks amazing and I like the concept. Very helpful for a beginner to get a base grind size to start with. For Timemore C3s (presuming C3 and C3s have same size), the 24 click size looks way too coarse for the Hoffman recipe. Is it supposed to be that coarse or is that a mistake?

Indicações

Achei ontem no Aliexpress a melhor opção custo benefício que existe no Timemore C3 ESP aproveitando que foi retirado o imposto da taxa das blusinhas abaixo de 50 dol! Usando o cupom NAMR3 fica abaixo dos U$D50 e paga menos imposto. Sai preço final mais ou menos R$375. E é um moedor com uma construçã

Oster 7200 vs delonghi dedica

De la cafetera no puedo opinar, pero si te digo que el timemore c3s pro lo tengo y no tiene ajustes tan finos para la espresso. Podes moler fino, si, pero no hacer ajustes precisos. Capaz el c3s ESP que es específico para espresso o sino es buscar algún 1zpresso o kingrinder por lo que leí
