We hope you can visit again soon too! 🙌😊

The grinder was too expensive for me, but seeing this video makes me appreciate and want it. The money isn't going to fat cat ceo but to small crafts man and high quality materials. Fantastic! It's a work of art.

“Be humble, work very hard, listen to your clients, enjoy what you do and put all your energy into it.” This man has all his priorities in order, great life lesson, great video!

Saw the title of this video. Clicked on the video. Hit pause. Made some coffee with my beloved Comandante. Sat down. Hit play. Felt deeply satisfied.

Makes me appreciate my Comandante even more

"Made in Germany" at it´s perfection. I love those things!

I won't lie; I'm a cheapskate if I can be. Learning about coffee and the equipment to make it has really helped me begin to understand the value of the products and realise that the prices aren't insane for what you get at the end. Seeing all the pieces (and faces) put together helps it make sense and puts it in context. Thank you for making this video.

Proud owner of a C40, really awesome company , congratulations for the video.

I had two issues with my C40: the 1st one was my fault given the fact that the handle felt of my table and the plastic lid broke. The 2nd was the knob that was no longer held in place as the inner snap-in mechanism was broken. Both problems have been solved by the after sales department of BB coffee company and I received replacing parts free of charge within 2 days. I'm quite impressed by and am happy having bought a highend product of a company focused on customer satisfaction. My thanks go out again to Natalie.

This is the kind of products I'd like to do my small part in supporting. No squeezing the last possible margin, no outsourcing to countries with substandard labour and environmental law and poor working conditions. Videos like this are so important because they are compelling reminders that cost and quality should not be the only criteria that matter when making a purchase.

Just got mine yesterday. After using a number of other hand grinders, I can happily report that I’m blown away at the cup the c40 produces. So happy right now!

I'm using Comandante Grinder for almost 4 years and this video complement my thought and impression about this grinder. Love from Indonesia.

Absolutely amazing to see how much love they put into making these grinders. Proud to have one!

Just bought my C40 mk4, it's amazing, I live to see how it's made and knowing I support a amazing company

Эта кофемолка самая лучшая!!! Купил и не думаешь что есть еще и другие.

Grinding my coffee in a Commandante every morning is more satisfying then getting to drink the end result...even though the coffee comes out perfect everytime.

Just buy it, you won’t regret it. It’s a fantastic work of engineering. I am on the road traveling for work and this Grinder has changed my life. I would like to see comandante improve their distribution. They could probably sell many more units if they did. On the one hand I do like it that select coffee roasters and distributors sell it. But it’s kind of an Easter egg hunt. Turkish coffee guy in New Orleans does a good job with online orders but he’s about the only reliable online distributor in America. I bought a felt sleeve for the grinder from him and the red clix. I would have bought it initially but it was not available at the coffee shop that sold them and it was hard to find for sale online.

Im sold after considering multiple grinders. After seeing this video, I submitted a payment for the American Cherry today. Paid for 3-5 day shipping.

Much respect for this company

What did I learn from the video? That being passionate about what you do is what really matters. There is a saying: Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life. Bernd Braune has worked for several giant companies, but it seems his heart found the right place when he started his own business. He shows love for what he creates and we could feel it. All so whimsically well done and still handcrafted! An exquisite work. I loved! ❤️

Now i know why the price is high. Very nice quality product.

Love from Malaysia. Proud to have one. It is the MK3 burgundy, and hope to use it for a long time ahead.

One word for this... MASTERPIECE ...!!

I was debating between the comandante and the 1zpresso plus. This video might have sold me. So much love and care.

Fanatastic, I just bought a "LIQUID AMBER". When you watch here, how they are built, then you know, they are worth every penny. Great guys!

This video helped in my decision to buy a C40. Loved the passion and expertise of the team, the grinder is incredibly well designed, engineered and just works. My daughter already wants to inherit it from me 👍

I don't have an Comandante yet... But I've learned a lot and specialty things that are important for me: vision, how and where it's made, philosophy and much more. Will probably get one very soon. The European Coffee Trip!

Кофемолка действительно хороша. Пользуюсь МК4 уже больше двух лет. Но вот недавно купил С60. Я очень доволен.

Finally got my Liquid Amber mk4, and love it. Whatched this video a year ago (and used another, not bad grinder at that time), but actually this grinder has all the reasons to love it and love the coffee that i can brew with it. And second thing is that this grinder is kind of reference, and it helped me to found some mistakes in my brewing and way to make it better even with another grinders. It's like way of samurai, haha, you can improve and improve your brewing whole life, but you have to have proper tools for that, otherwise you may go wrong for a long time, as me. Maybe not actually wrong, just different, but still it was an experience, and it makes more interesting next steps, and it's hard to not being grateful for this. So thank you guys for these videos and thanks to maestro for that great grinder!

When the ceo said "This is my babies" - that said it all how much love into it

I was really thinking hard about spending $250 USD on one of these, but after watching the video, I am going to pull the trigger (if I can find one). Bernd's passion and path of trying to make the best product is very refreshing. The amount of craftsmanship is so impressive and beautiful. Can't wait to be an owner and get my hands on one of these!

Thank you for this interview!! Hearing directly from the CEO and seeing his passion, drive and pride for the product makes me really reassured in my decision to buy one!! They are all out of stock here in Australia (American Cherry). Please send some more pronto so I can get my hands on one!!

It was really an eye opener & makes me realized why Comandante is priced the way it is. Definitely one hand grinder I'm looking forward to have.

This really puts into perspective why the C40 mk3 is a $250 grinder. Engineering and labor - pretty amazing.

Thanks for the video, now we know Comandante is worth the price not just to grind coffee. The scientist development and the process of the wood surface are full of professional and love in their product.

Bought a Comandante because of this video. It’s amazing!

I love my comandante. We are inseparable. I travel the globe about half the year on numerous trips. My comandante is always with me. Thank you for this video and thank you to the team at comandante.

This is so cool. I love German engineering, like HK. Very detail-oriented and uncompromising!

So proud having comandante c40...great craftmanship, can feel that passion..no wondering c40 is the most popular handgrinder..

Thank u gays i am from indonesia comandante is the best

Just like everyone else here, i love my comandante. Impeccable build quality, proprietary burr design with research backing it apparently. And it's all assembled with hand, with such precision. I can see how comandante could have this reputation. Truly gold standard among high end hand grinders.

Comandante is such an amazing company. I do hope that they eventually create a model with an eternal numbered grind adjustment dial. That will be a major upgrade and reason to purchase.

Thanks to my Red Sonja I have finally started to enjoy proper espresso at home... Danke schön Herr Braune! (and Team!)

Mine should be arriving tomorrow! They aren't easy to come by in the US, ended up purchasing from a vendor in New Jersey and I'm in California!

great! I bought mine today, I've only used it twice so far.

This is a truly amazing grinder! My wife gave me one three weeks ago. It changed my life at home!

I love my Comandante grinder and never regretted the investment - it is really efficient and well made. You feel the quality and I love that I can make great coffee even when I am travelling. You really get what you pay for!

After I watched this manufacturing process I am going to order one ❤️👌

Thanks for the factory tour! After watching it a few days ago I decided to order one. And I'm watching it again while I wait for it to arrive. Can't wait to try it out!

Very nice video! Now I already know where my manual grinder was born. Greetings from Bulgaria.

Lovely tour! These guys are immensely passionate, could see it clearly in your video!

Incredible timing, I got mine today! Really happy with the product, and also I'm really impressed at how polished and clean that factory is!

interressting to see how much manpower and knowledge is in these grinders. looking forward to get one.

I love my C40 and it feels really good to know a little more about the team behind this wonderful grinder

Thanks a lot European Coffee Trip, great job! I think most viewers will now be thinking about these amazing people and their philosphy everytime they see a Comandate grinder!

Amazing video, thank you Ales and the European Coffee Trip team. I’d like to upgrade my grinder (I’m currently using a Barratza encore and a lower end Hario hand grinder) and this video, combined with your comparison of hand grinders video, has convinced me that the Commandante is the way to go. It was amazing to see the level of care and precision that goes into producing each Commandante grinder. Thanks again.

I won one of these awesome grinders in a regional Aeropress competition. It trumps my Baratza Precisco!

just pre-ordered it couple days ago, can’t wait for mine to come

What a magnificent piece of work. German quality! Wishing to have one.

I feel like rushing out and purchase a unit from the nearest distributor after watching this 😍

I didn't see anyone grind and make coffee. It looks like a great product.

WOOOOWWW I'm so proud of my new Comandante grinder now after watching this!

Wow, thank you bringing us this insight into Comandante. I wasn't in the market for a manual grinder, but I am now after seeing this. I hope they give you a discount for all the business you will surely bring them!! Love all of your videos - Cheers from Oregon!

James Hoffmann’s review guided me to search for this, beautiful product 👍

Makes me so proud to own one of these. So much passion!

the grinder is expensive, but after seeing this video, I can see the work and effort put into making this product. I don't feel too bad buying one now. Thanks for the video :)

and a long time was it around! congratulations!

Love my Comandante! Thanks for the behind the scenes tour.

I’ve learned that it’s easy to sell any kind of products and earn lot of money but above all, quality, trustworthy, reputation is not that anyone can achieve. When you wanna do something do it with your heart, your passion most important thing is your hard work. I can see it from your products with all the details you put it. Loved it! I use Comandante grinder every morning and nothing can be replaced:)

Excelente video , me encanto. Me compraré mi primer molino comandante color rojo. Felicidades.

I didn't know that making a reliable and consistant grinder is the real challenge for a grinder making company. It takes much work, experience and engineering. Thanks for great and educating videos.

Was Really nice to get to know Them !!!!!

Now I understand why I paid around 250€ for that beauty. Thank you.

Absolutely loved this video! It was an excellent snapshot of the business and production side and you weren’t left feeling that you’d missed out on anything! The technical side of Burr design, which Bernd touched upon, would have captivated me further but therein lie the secrets of success....so we were lucky to get a snifter of it all.....😎😜 I was impressed by the numbers of workers that the process employs! It’s heartening to see a business that relies on its Staff and I got the impression that they all seemed contented in their employment? As it goes, I wouldn’t mind working there myself! Next stop for you, KNOCK in Scotland.....😜

Much respect. Love that they produce in their home country. Gonna get one.

Great work @Comandante Grinder , quality is never a coincidence.

I have a MK4 and love it!

That was an awesome video. I have a Comandante and it took my coffee to the next level, I love it.

I don't own a Commandante since I bought a Timemore X Lite which I absolutely love. But the brand has an amazing story and they deserve their success

I’m about to upgrade to a commandante and I’m so excited!! Also so cool to see their heart and desire to strive for perfection! Thank you so much!

I know I love my Comandante grinder, now I have more of an idea why! Awesome tour.

So cool. Thank you so much for this video🙏

Incredible product, incredible video… let’s us enjoy the product even more… thanks

I really enjoy my comandante c40 each afternoon since 1 year ago. A pleasure grind with it. So much respect for that passion you show us. Excelent product!!!! Proud of have one of wenge :)

Old good German focus on quality. Proud owner of Commandate!

Thanks for the tour - I love my Wenge!

Yay I got mine a few days ago! My husband surprised and gifted me one knowing how much I wanted it!! Love it!! Just a tip: you should include the grinding sound in your videos. It’s so therapeutic!!

after watching this video i bet its worth the money

This is a great video, thanks! I've always been fascinated by their engineering. I look forward to when I can get one of these grinders. The Comandante t-shirt is also very cool.

Love the content you are producing! You are my favorite coffee channel I have found so far!

Great video, as usual, guys! It was very interesting to see both the passion of the people behind the product and the production process itself. And let's joy forget: seeing the people who hand-made a product you use daily is super cool!

Love this 360 degree view!

He makes great grinders and has excellent taste in watches with his Rolex Explorer. Great video!

I can’t wait to get mine.

Lovely. Never thought before that for "just to grind" the coffee needs this high technology involved. Thanks, Ales. :D

It's so awesome to see people crafting a truly quality product with such care and passion in an era where cheap garbage made with practically slave labor has taken over the world of products.

€100k in order to measure the particles, that is dedication to perfection. If I ever want to upgrade my inexpensive Porlex grinder I'll be going for a Comandante grinder.

This was fun to watch. I wil be gifting myself with one on my birthday 🙏🏼

Inspiring and encouraging. Get ready!!!
