Know before you buy
Yes, the Chestnut C2S features an adjustable grind setting that ranges from fine enough for espresso to coarse enough for French press. However, because it is a manual grinder, expect a significant amount of physical effort when grinding at the finest espresso settings.
The hopper has a maximum capacity of 25 grams of coffee beans. This is generally enough for a single large mug or a standard pour-over brew.
The grinder weighs 0.7 kilograms (1.54 pounds). While the full metal construction provides excellent durability and a premium feel, it is slightly heavier than plastic alternatives, though still compact enough for most travel bags.
The double bearing system stabilizes the central shaft, which prevents the burr from wobbling during operation. This ensures a more uniform grind size and reduces the amount of 'fines' or dust in your coffee, leading to a cleaner cup.
Yes, the anti-static design helps prevent ground coffee from clinging to the sides of the collection chamber due to static electricity. This makes it much easier to transfer your grounds into your brewer without making a mess on your counter.
