MITBAK Manual Coffee Grinder, Stainless Steel & Acrylic, Portable, Noise-Free, Freshly Ground Coffee, Perfect for Home or Travel

Brewing coffee takes time and patience. Time to get the filtered water to the right temp - time to let the ground beans steep and bloom - and time to get a good grind. This grinder is exactly what you are wanting from coarse to very fine. Yes - manually grinding your beans takes a bit longer giving you far more control of the quality of your brew as a result. It took a few turns to find my setting for my French Press to get the right extraction, but once it's set it's set. I have used other manual grinders that did not lock in place correctly, were wobbly and weak (the crank arm bent on first use), and didn't have a quality burr grinder cone. This grinder is well made, quite sturdy and effective. I would like to see a separate cover / lid to store the ground beans if I don't use them all - but it has the capacity I need for my daily brew and gets it done within a few minutes whilst my water is heating so I am getting the freshest brew possible and not exposing the ground coffee and ruining the overall experience.I think this has just replaced my current manual grinder for home use. The copper-colored accent gives this a nice appearance.

I did not experience the best version of the product. No matter what I did, or how much or little I put in the hopper, I had no luck with grinding any coffee.

The grinder is a beautiful addition to our coffee bar. It does exactly what is in the sellers description. the coffee does taste better ground fresh. This grinder is a gem I definitely recommend purchasing.

I bought this for the aesthetic. I love the rose gold and the glass and the overall look. However, when I went to use this, I spent a good 20 minutes grinding coffee beans only to have less than a teaspoon of ground coffee. I did change the settings from a finer grind to a more coarse one, and that seems to not take as long. But I've definitely had manual coffee grinders that work far better than this one.

Overall works well however the handle does start squeaking after about a week of heavy use, however the ground is consistent, can be dialed up or down actually to a very fine espresso grind if desired. It’s a little bit of work to grind enough for the week but overall a good product. The only downside is the bean basket at the top is about as small as it looks. I thought it would be a little bigger allowing me to grind for a longer time vs having to fill constantly. Other than that though, satisfied with the quality at the price point.
