Chestnut C2S

You mentioned that they love coffee and have tried all kinds of things. The most value for money way to give them something they would not only be value for money but they would also cherish is long-lasting coffee gear. A timemore grinder. C2 or C2S would be great. There goes 4-5k A ceramic hario v6

Gamit ko Timemore C2s(C2 but all metal variation) sa Moka pots ko, goods naman siya, I use it around 11-16 clicks for Moka. 1-2/3 years na to sakin. Got it sa shopee for around 2k'ish sa Timemoreph(wala na silang Mall badge now)

Totally worth it at 2400, does 80-90% of what timemore c2s can do, but timemore will last you for ages or at least that is what I have heard. I think as a beginner one should stick to cheaper stuff and upgrade gradually as per the requirement hits your consciousness. You might as well get the timemo

To save you from the curses you are gonna hear. I don't doubt that this could be useful but it's a non branded grinder with no guarantee for quality. If you can, I would suggest going just 1-2k higher and getting the timemore c2 or c2s grinder. If you absolutely can't, then I guess you can try but b

I did the same for the same reason , but when I'm pulling only one shot for me to enjoy , I'm still using my timemore hand grinder . The experience and the flavour profile are much more enjoyable . Originally, i have the timemore c2s ( which is a general grinder), but today I've received my new c5 e

Well I started brewing around 4-5 month is ago and I would like to say that grinder is the most essential (ignore the water and its tds) the timemore c3s is the best starter grinder anything below c3s/c2s is not worth having and yes you will find the need to upgrade the grinder one you use that trus

I don't think anyone would suggest a grinder below the Timemore C2/C3(s) series. The differences between the generations are minimal, but if you want a longer lasting grinder, I'd suggest getting either a C2S/C3S for their all metal construction.

1st tip don't buy ceramic burr grinder at all, I got it as my 1st grinder needed to change in 2months or so.you can get something like Timemore C3s or C2s for starting, ig they are the most recommended grinders to get started with and also are very long lasting

Well good grinders start at about 4k, like the Timemore C2/C3 series. If you have the budget, I'd recommend getting either a C2S/C3S (they're also on sale now) as they are made out of only metal and would last longer than C2/C3. 6k would probably get you the 1zpresso Q Air which is generally better

Get a grinder. And only buy Whole beans. French Press and Moka Pot both require specific grind settings. For long term, buy a Timemore C2S. And never buy too many beans together. Beans lose potential after a month.
