Comandante C40 Coffee Grinder - Black Oak

Comandante C40 Coffee Grinder Overview

Renowned German manufacturer Comandante has once again set the standard for hand coffee grinders with the C40. This model is the MK4, which improves upon the design and functionality of its predecessors with an improved jar and redesigned frame. Standout features like a sleek black body and black oak knob, as well as stainless steel components wow visually, while patented Nitro Blade® conical burrs with a fine martensitic matrix and precise stepped adjustments return. The end result is unmatched style, precision and grind consistency that the C40 has become known for.

Features and Performance

This handy grinder is capable of holding roughly 40g of coffee to produce enough ground coffee for four to six cups, hence the name C40. The body is a sleek black and the knob is made of black oak, while the internal frame is made of BPA-free plastic so you don’t have to worry about ingesting any harmful chemicals. The frame has also been redesigned to keep beans from getting stuck.

The precise grind adjustment is extremely consistent, to the point that you can achieve an ideal grind fineness or coarseness for Turkish coffee, French press, cold brew, espresso, and just about everything in-between. The build construction and design gives the grinder a weighted and sturdy feel in your hands, and also makes it so the burrs don’t have the wobbly feel that many hand grinders can have, especially after repeated use.

Why You Should Get It

When it comes to high-end hand grinders, you’d be hard pressed to find a product that strikes the right balance between style and substance that the C40 achieves.

Standout features like the Nitro Blade® burrs for a silky smooth grind, and newly designed frame to eliminate beans and particles getting stuck have been designed with superior engineering and craftsmanship in mind. The result is exceptional grind performance and particle distribution, as well as unmatched durability and consistency when it comes to important factors like grind size.
