How to Use

METHOD Using the Timemore Chestnut C2 is straightforward. Add your coffee beans to the top, adjust the dial at the bottom to match your brew method—finer for espresso, coarser for French press—and start grinding. The handle turns smoothly once it finds its rhythm, and in a couple of minutes, you’ll have up to 25g of freshly ground coffee.

CARE To keep your grinder in good shape, brush out the burrs regularly and give the inside a dry wipe. Avoid rinsing or using soap, especially on the burrs. A little care goes a long way in keeping your grind even and your coffee tasting right.

FAQs

Have questions? We’ve got answers! Here are some of the questions people have had about Timemore Chestnut C2. If you have more, check out our FAQs page or feel free to contact us!

What makes the Timemore Chestnut C2 stand out from other manual grinders? -

The Chestnut C2 features 38 mm stainless steel conical burrs and a dual-ball‑bearing crank system, enabling stable, smooth grinding for exceptional consistency—especially in coarse and medium settings like pour-over, AeroPress, drip, and French press. Despite its affordable price point, it delivers grind quality that rivals many motorized models, earning praise for its value-forward performance.

How fast and easy is it to grind coffee with the C2? -

The grinder operates with minimal friction, thanks to its smooth crank arm and dual bearings—it can grind 20–30 g in under 30–50 seconds, depending on grind size. Its lightweight aluminum body (~435 g) with a textured surface offers a comfortable grip and makes it great for travel or small kitchens.

How do I adjust settings and maintain the grinder? -

The grinder provides about 36 stepped adjustments via a dial located under the burrs. However, there are no numeric markings, so it’s best to count clicks from a fully closed position (e.g., French press ≈ 18−26 clicks) and stick with your preferred setting. Cleaning is straightforward—use the included brush to remove remains weekly and avoid water near burrs to prevent rust. Full disassembly is possible if needed, but gently reassemble to preserve burr alignment.
