1zpresso Q air or Timemore C3
Save money with a timemore c2s if you're brewing fp only, or just get a Kingrinder K6 if you're planning to get an espresso setup in future.

Should I just not buy cheap grinders? (1000Rs)
The Timemore C2S is premium feel, all-metal build quality, it can't do espresso grind.

Definately not timemore c2s as it will not give you the precise control of grind size between one click, so you wont be able to dial in your coffee. Atleast get a decent espresso grinder maybe Timemore c3 esp for starters or the kingrinder k6 ( not available in india , need to order from outside ind

Coffee Grinder Query for experienced people
If you are looking for espresso the gear does matter a lot and grinder is even more important because a lot of the grinders can’t grind fine enough for espresso So getting a good grinder , timemore c2/c2s/c3 or 1zpressi q air would help your workflow and make good coffee as well

Recommendations for a good home espresso machine under 30K, mainly asking as a beginner in espresso but an amateur in overall coffee making and drinking. any suggestions are appreciated!
Has this been the lowest its ever been? The steam wand can be a bit of a deal breaker in a way... I have a timemore c2s but not sure if I can get espresso sized grinds

[MOD] The Daily Question Thread
Looking for recommendations on a hand grinder for grinding espresso and also use with my aeropress. Price isn’t a factor to an extent. I don’t mind ~$400 and would rather buy once. I currently use a Timemore C2s. Looking at the 1Zpresso K-Ultra but am open to suggestions as well. I don’t mind doing

best budget hand grinders! BUDGET: [$120]
the Timemore C5 ESP (recently introduced), under USD 65 on Ali Express not plastic + very premium build, suitable for pressurized espresso (C2/C2S/K0 are not)

Guys is this good and suggest me a good grinder under budget or should I buy ground coffee ?
Timemore c2s isnt made for espresso. The lowest you can do is the encore esp. Among hand grinders built for espresso, the kingrinder j ultra is recommended. Anyways i think you should introspect over the decision for espresso making. There are several other brewers worth 1/10th the cost that also pr
