What customers say
The TIMEMORE Whirly 01S Portable Electric Grinder earns high praise for its exceptional portability and premium build quality. Users consistently highlight its compact aluminum alloy design, making it perfect for travel or saving space. The core appeal lies in its reliable grind consistency, which excels for pour-over and immersion brewing methods. Operation is simple, featuring one button and convenient USB-C charging.

Know before you buy
Yes, the grinder features a wide adjustment range from 0.1 for fine espresso to 2.7 for coarse French press, making it versatile enough for almost any brew method.
The battery is capable of grinding enough coffee for up to 20 espresso shots before needing a recharge, which takes approximately 3 hours.
The Whirly is designed to be compatible with 58mm portafilters, allowing you to grind directly into your basket for a cleaner workflow.
The parts are not dishwasher safe, so you should clean them manually. We recommend using a dry brush to remove residual grounds from the S2C-042-EI burrs and wiping the hopper with a soft, dry cloth.
The hopper holds up to 45 grams (1.59 oz) of coffee beans, which is sufficient for multiple pour-overs or a large batch of French press.
The swivel hopper is designed to minimize mess and reduce coffee retention, ensuring that more of the beans you put in end up in your brew rather than stuck inside the machine.
