TIMEMORE Chestnut C2S Manual Grinder – Full Metal Body, 38mm CNC Burr, 25g, Portable

Overview

The TIMEMORE Chestnut C2S manual grinder blends rugged metal construction with thoughtful engineering to deliver a consistent coffee grind for everyday use and travel. Upgraded to a full metal body, it moves beyond plastic components to provide a solid, premium feel that lasts through daily routines and weekend getaways.

At its heart lies a 38 mm CNC stainless steel conical burr set paired with a double-bearing central axis. This combination promotes smooth rotation and uniform particle size, helping you move from bean to ground with minimal effort and fuss. The burrs are hardened for durability and machined with precision to reduce overly coarse fragments while preserving aroma-bearing oils during grinding.
