First manual grinder

I recently upgraded from an electric Bodium grinder (budget model) to the timemore C3S pro. and I'm very pleased that I did. I got mine from a German website Ann's pairs significantly less than I've seen it advertised elsewhere.

Need some guidance

Probably start with cheaper coffee first, navio, bombay coffee. You will start knowing what to expect, then move towards BT, ektaa, grey soul. Definitely get a good grinder df54 would be advisable, or timemore c3s pro

I'm super lucky.

I just got the Timemore C3s pro(pro just means folding handle) hand grinder. So far so like. There was a flash sale a couple days ago for $75. The ESP(espresso) model is more adjustable but I ordered a grinder plate with more detents from aliexpress. The build quality is really nice. So far just did

Got my first moka pot , it looks so cute 🫠

I can vouch for the timemore c3s pro grinds very well, if you wanted more opinions for grind size can go for the pro esp version, if you want more budget go for c2!

Timemore C3s pro vs C3s ESP pro for moka pot

I think that the ESP is focused on espresso machines since it can grind finer than others, that is the only thing that differentiates it from the other Timemore, for the moka pot and other methods, anything other than the ESP is sufficient; I say this because I have done a lot of research in many pl

Timemore Nano 3 impression / review?

well, the Nano 3 is basically a smaller and "more premium" (wooden knob :) version of the Timemore C3s Pro grinder it has the same S2C660 burrs, so the taste profile would be the same as the C3s or even C3 (Pro and non-Pro, all C3/C3s series have the same burrs, and older Nano versions had the C2/C2

I want to get into the world of espresso and this seems like my only option.

I have a Timemore C3S Pro which is not incredible for espresso, but I've gotten some great results with it on a friend's machine. This offer comes with a pressure gauge, a tamper and some other extras if I'm not mistaken? One part is dented though, which makes me worried, but supposedly it doesn't i

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
