Why Your Grind Consistency Keeps Betraying Your Brew
Uneven fines turn a good bean into a mediocre cup, no matter how carefully you dial in your V60 or espresso shot. The Timemore C2S grinder was built to close that gap, delivering café-grade uniformity from a hand grinder small enough to sit on a kitchen shelf or slip into a travel bag.
Built Around Precision Engineering
Every C2S grinder starts as a solid metal unibody, CNC machined rather than assembled from stamped parts. That single-piece construction keeps the burr chamber aligned turn after turn, which is where most budget hand grinders start to drift.
What Sets It Apart
- Full metal unibody machined for structural rigidity and long-term durability
- 38mm stainless steel conical burrs with double-bearing support for even extraction
- 36-level click adjustment spans espresso through French press
- 5-axis CNC burr machining minimises fines for cleaner cups
What The Timemore C2S Grinder Actually Delivers
38mm Conical Burr Set
CNC-machined stainless steel burrs, hardened to 55–58 HRC, hold their edge through years of daily grinding.
36-Click Adjustment
A single adjustment nut moves through 36 defined steps, covering espresso, pour-over, AeroPress and French press.
Double-Bearing Handle
Built-in bearings let the handle continue spinning after each turn, cutting the physical effort of manual grinding.
Travel-Ready Footprint
A 52mm body diameter and 700g weight make the C2S grinder easy to pack for trips, offices or outdoor brewing.
20–25g Bean Capacity
Sized for single servings — a cup or two at a time — without excess dead space in the hopper.
