So you're ready to buy a hand grinder? Congrats! There are many good reasons to choose a hand grinder instead of an electric grinder for your morning pour over or espresso, including portability, versatility, and especially value. In this video, Ryan separates Prima's catalog of premium hand grinders into three categories: Filter, Espresso and Multi-purpose, then highlights the main features of each grinder within each category to help you narrow down your choices. For more detailed info on each model, we recommend visiting our product listings at the link below.

Why compare features and not taste? Good question! First of all, comparing this many hand grinders against eachother objectively would be very, very difficult. Second, the difference in taste between the least and most expensive grinders on this list is separated by a thin margin. Ultimatley, grinding by hand is laborious and isn't always fun. Maximize your enjoyment by choosing a grinder with the right feature set and you'll be happier in the long run vs. choosing the grinder that offers a tiny bit more uniformity of grind.

Great video! I'm a new coffee nerd and just got introduced to your channel! -- oh how i wish you guys included KINGrinder here! Have you heard of them?Apparently its the same manufacturer as izpresso... Would love to hear your thoughts on that and the Picopresso! Not seeing a video for the pico either! Appreciate your time!

My favorite is the Pietro with pro brew burrs. Although it's hard for most people to use it as a "hand" grinder. By far the best quality of any hand grinder on the market.

Hei. Small question . Where did you get the Timemore Slim plus foldable handle from. It looks awesome and handy. Thanks!

@user-yo8dw4eb4f Жыл бұрын

If the prices of KINU M47C and Feld 47 2023 are the same, what more do you recommend? For convenience, Feld 47 looks good, but the important thing is the taste, so please recommend it.

We are big fans of Kuni grinders. They are excellent grinders.

What would you recommend for turkish coffee, which is finer than espresso. Thanks

@primacoffeeequipment Жыл бұрын

The STC Turkish hand grinder (not featured here) grinds ultra-fine. The Comandante and Omega can do it sufficiently as well.

Fir expresso, you show a non foldable handle 1Z presso j-max, or is it the K-max ??? 😊

@primacoffeeequipment 9 ай бұрын

It is the J-Max, which we unfortunatley no longer carry.

so does Timemore C2 is better than C3?

@primacoffeeequipment Жыл бұрын

The C3 is actually an upgrade from the C2. They share the same size, but the C3 has new S2C steel burrs adopted from the Chestnut X in a smaller 38mm size. It also has a stepless grinding adjustment so you can use it for everything from espresso to french press.

Where are the orphan grinder made? I know the company is in the US but are they made in USA or elsewhere?

@primacoffeeequipment 5 ай бұрын

Hi there! They are manufactured in Taiwan.

Which one can be use to grind Turkish ground?

@coolkid111111100 6 ай бұрын

The Kinu m47 can go as fine as Turkish coffee

@clarktian6628 Жыл бұрын

So long as there's a chance to buy 1Z, don't consider Timemore. None of my Timemore last over 6 months and my 1Z kpro have served over a year and half, still at its best state.

I thought the jmax was from Taiwan, not mainland China, big difference

@primacoffeeequipment 10 ай бұрын

Yep, China and Taiwan are different. But in the video Ryan was referencing the fact that 1zpresso is manufactured in China though their HQ is in Taiwan.

1z is actually a Taiwanese brand, not Chinese.

@primacoffeeequipment 10 ай бұрын

1Zpresso is headquartered in Taiwan, but they have a factory in China. The grinders are Chinese-made.

You guys aren't a fan of the French Press then? You didn't mention it even once.

@primacoffeeequipment 8 ай бұрын

Sure we are! French Press requires approximately the same grind size as a 2-3 cup pour over (medium to medium-coarse), so any grinder recommended for filter coffee in this video will also work well with French Press.
