Timemore C5 ESP PRO Hand Grinder

Product Details:

• Finest Espresso Setting: The "Numbered Espresso Dial v2" is a numbered adjustment ring with detents. Each click changes the grind size by 0.015 mm, totaling 50 clicks per rotation – for finely adjustable and reproducible espresso settings.
• 42mm S2C Burr Set: Conical S2C-042-III burr set made of hardened stainless steel. The extended grinding path ensures uniform grounds, high extraction, and a clear cup, especially for lighter roasts.
• Espresso-focused, yet versatile: Designed for espresso and Moka pot, with recommended setting ranges also for pour-over and French press. Ideal if espresso is your priority, but you occasionally brew pour-over.
• Stable Axle Guide: Precision bearings with tight tolerances keep the axle in position and minimize burr wobble. This supports consistent particle distribution and thus reproducible results.
• Full Metal Housing with Good Grip: Unibody construction made of aluminum alloy, metal crank, and textured surface. The grinder fits securely in the hand and is designed for regular use.
• Stable Stand: The silicone base stabilizes the grinder and dampens noise.
• Capacity: up to 25g beans, ideal for single and double shots.
• Easy, Dry Cleaning: Thanks to the drop-out design, the burr set can be removed downwards and cleaned with a brush without completely disassembling the grinder.
• Scope of Delivery: 1x Timemore Chestnut C5 ESP Pro Hand Grinder

Why do we sell the Timemore C5 ESP Pro?

We tested Timemore grinders as a financially attractive, technically strong alternative to high-end hand grinders. The C5 ESP Pro convinced us mainly in two points:

1. Fine, reproducible settings for espresso: 0.015 mm per click makes it significantly easier to find a previously established grind size and to make small adjustments.
2. Good manufacturing quality for the price: Full metal body, precise bearings, and the new 42mm burr set deliver a grinding result that can easily compete with many mid-range electric grinders in everyday use.

For anyone looking for a manual espresso grinder with a lot of control and who doesn't want to go straight for the highest price segment, the Timemore Chestnut C5 ESP Pro is a very interesting option from our perspective.
