Description
The Timemore S3 Grinder, Built for Precision
Inconsistent grind size is the quiet reason espresso turns sour and pour-over turns muddy. The Timemore S3 grinder fixes this with external digital adjustment and patented steel burrs precise enough for a professional bar, engineered to perform just as well on an Indian kitchen counter.
A Full-Metal Unibody, Zero Flex
The S3’s body is machined as a single metal unit — no plastic housing, no wobble under load. That rigidity keeps the burr axis fixed while grinding, which is the real driver of particle consistency, not burr geometry alone.
Built Around Consistency
- 0.015mm per click for true stepless-feel adjustment
- External scale reads to 0.1-grid increments — no click counting
- S2C890 steel burrs upgraded from the original S2C for cleaner, sweeter cups
- Bearing tolerance tightened from 7μm to 5μm for up to 100% higher grind consistency
Every Detail, Engineered
All-Metal Unibody
Machined for durability and stability, with a dense, premium feel in hand on every grind.
External Digital Adjustment
0.015mm per click, read directly off an external scale in 0.1-grid increments — dial in espresso, moka pot, pour-over, or French press without guesswork.
S2C890 Patented Steel Burrs
An upgrade over the original S2C, delivering more uniform particle size and cleaner, sweeter extraction.
High-Precision Bearings
Tolerance reduced from 7μm to 5μm, increasing grind consistency and overall mechanical stability.
Foldable Handle
A patented spring-assisted handle folds flush against the body, preventing tip-overs and saving space in transit or storage.

Timemore S3 Grinder — Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Timemore S3 grinder handle espresso-fine grinds?
Yes. The external adjustment goes fine enough for espresso, and the S2C890 steel burrs are built to maintain uniformity at that range.
Does it work for pour-over and French press too?
Yes, the same external scale covers the full range from espresso-fine to French-press-coarse — no burr swap needed.
How precise is the adjustment, really?
Each click moves the burr by 0.015mm, and the external scale reads in 0.1-grid increments, so you can log and repeat a setting exactly.
Is the S3 fragile for daily use?
No. The all-metal unibody construction and upgraded 5μm-tolerance bearings are built for repeated daily grinding without losing consistency.
Is it easy to carry or store?
Yes. The spring-assisted handle folds flush against the body, so the grinder sits flat and won’t tip over in a bag or on a shelf.
Precision, Portable
The Timemore S3 grinder is for the brewer who wants café-grade grind consistency without a countertop electric grinder — home baristas dialling in espresso, pour-over enthusiasts chasing clarity, and café teams who need a reliable manual backup.
