CEVING Mini Manual Coffee Grinder With 40 Adjustable Settings, Black

I was both pleased and surprised of the quality hand burr grinder. It perfectly grinds coffee to precise and preferred levels for espresso or coarse for drip. I prefer #6 for espresso and Americano. The grind container is actually glass not plastic! Turning the grinder is easy as the handle is correctly sized. It takes a couple minutes to grind a double espresso, but well worth the effort.

This coffee grinder is great for small servings. If you are making a 12 cup pot you might want a larger grinder or know you will have to fill this one a few times. I have read articles about making a great cup of coffee but while they will tell you to weigh the coffee down to the tenth of a gram and carefully measure the water down to the precise millilitre they don't tend to stress grind. Just fine medium or coarse depending on your brew method. This grinder has excellant control over how coarse a grind you will get. You can buy the same beans from your roaster and not really get the same bean. I like Ethiopian beans, but one order may have come from a different plantaion or the next may have been roasted under different weather conditions. The control over the grind lets you correct your coffee. Not smooth enough, go a little coarser. Not getting enough boldness, try finer. You will find that one roast of beans works best with a grind setting of 20, the next from the same geographic region and roaster may need a 17 setting. Not to mention a morning where you just need a something different and want to go for a large setting change. This little grinder works well for these kind of grind changes. Gives you great control over what taste you are going to end up with and seems durable after 3 monthes use. It was a purchase where I got the value I paid for.

If you’re into single‑cup pour‑over and secretly want to justify skipping arm day, this grinder is your new personal trainer. Sure, it only holds about 20g of beans, but trust me—once you start cranking, you’ll be grateful you’re not fueling a whole pot. This thing turns “making coffee” into light morning calisthenics. I’ve actually replaced part of my morning workout with bean‑grinding reps. With this, you can grind your way to caffeine and toned forearms at the same time? With 40 grind settings, anything below 20 becomes a full‑blown resistance exercise. But seriously, I do like this grinder and appreciate the simplicity and peace of manually grinding my own beans. It's a relaxing morning ritual at this point. Pro tip: once the beans settle into the burrs, changing the grind setting becomes a challenge, so dial it in before you start cranking unless you enjoy mid‑grind wrestling matches. The payoff? Beautifully consistent grounds and a peaceful, whisper‑quiet morning routine—no more electric‑grinder chaos. Just you, your grinder, and the satisfying knowledge that your coffee ritual now counts as strength training.

5 stars for price, 'dial in' feaute, and static free glass bottom. -2 for inconsistent grind size. [updated to 4 stars - update at bottom] Set the grinder setting around 30-40, remove the bottom glass, and actually handle the center burr with your fingers - see how it moves side to side? That's called 'play', or 'slop'. This is what causes inconsistency in the grinds. If you're creative enough to pop it apart and find a way to shim the center axle to prevent that slop, you may actually have a very fine grinder. Coming from a Javapresse (on loan to a friend), I was actually surprised that pour over took about 70-80 cranks instead of my normal 140-150 on the Javapresse. It wasn't brewing the same either. More coarse boulders hanging out on the top and sides of the melitta. This has an effect on my coffee - which I need to try to re-dial in with this new grinder. Someone mentioned grinding their beans twice. I'm considering doing that. This grinder feels twice as hard to crunch up my medium roast Dunkin (Javapresse was easier one time thru). I will try running thru at 30-40, then 15 (or whatever I eventually find provides the consistency for pour over I need). The whole reason to go to a burr grinder is to avoid the massive inconsistencies of the electric 'weed wacker' style (and to get that "oh-so-wonderful-goodness" that's missing from grocery store ground coffee). For the price conscientious, this is a good place to start, but it may leave you desiring something better. Sometimes it's better to buy once/cry once. This grinder isn't a complete failure - just might need some owner side intervention in tinkering OR running the beans thru more than once. Mind you - I'm using this strictly for Aeropress (sometimes used as a type of French press), and a Melitta pour over. If I find more insights - I'll attempt to update... Update - almost a month later This has been my primary grinder - usually making either pour over with a melitta or immersion brew with my aeropress - typically with the grinder set around 15-20 out of 40 This morning I made the choice to ratchet it up to a much smaller grind and went to a setting of 5 out of 40 - there seems to be much less play - and my ground coffee appears to have a much more consistent appearance first attempt at an aeropress 'espresso like' drink (20g coffee to 60-70g water) - seems decent - I may try this in my nanopresso at another time I'll report in a few more weeks how this setting works for pour over and a ratio of 15:240 (1:16) in the aeropress

This does exactly what it is intended to do, is easy to use, and good for both right and left-handed people. I am no professional on coffee grinding, but I do know this has been really useful and fun for my experiments! I love my mini coffee grinder! It is super simple to set up, store, and transport. It is small enough to take with you in something like a purse or backpack, and is sturdy enough to not break from bumping into things. It comes with a handy little brush to help clean it out! My favorite thing is that this is suitable for both left and right-handed people. When one arm gets tired, I switch to my other arm and turn in the opposite direction. This has reduced the time it takes for me to grind things because it would take 2-4 minutes with one arm (and breaks) and now takes 1-2 minutes. It is a bit noisy, so I try to step out of the room if others are there with me. I appreciate that the manual came with what grind size is recommended for certain methods (ex. pour over vs espresso). I have used mine for both pour overs and espresso and have gotten absolutely delicious results! It is definitely a plus to be able to change the grind size by just one notch. I enjoy that I can get both fine and coarse grounds to achieve my desired flavor profile. When grinding for my espresso, I do half on a lower setting and half on a higher one (1-2 notches) so that I get the crema and flavor that I enjoy. Despite having 40 settings, I've found that mixing 2 grinds gives me my preferred results for the coffee I use. I have also used this for non-coffee things, such as cinnamon, although I'm not sure how much wear that has put on this. I "refresh" my coarse pre-ground coffee by running it through on a finer setting and it helps bring out the flavor more. This has been helpful since people buy me coffee as a gift, but I don't get good crema from pre-ground coffee. My only complaint is that I never know how to store the handle. I can leave the glass part screwed on at the bottom when putting this away, but the handle is just a little awkward since it doesn't fully lay flat when you take it off.

durable well made product.decent van/RV bean grinder when on the road. wouldn't recommend for any situation where an electric grinder could be used. I like this grinder for the most part but they are a couple issues. 1) the hand grinder takes a lot longer than I would like. (I used my cordless drill to turn it now to make it quicker) if youre like me in the morning you want to be quick before work id say spring and get an electric one. on the go it does its job. 2)would be better is the bean finer/corse-ness could go finer in my opinion

This is great. I've used a couple like this in the past and this one is my favorite. Great for traveling. I often travel with a coffee rig as I am typically in areas where that trash with the green mermaid is the only option. This is easy to use, works well, easy to pack.

Love it! If you love fresh ground coffee it’s a must have! We use a Stainless steel k-Cup in our name brand coffee maker. This grinds the exact amount for a K-Cup refill. I think if you were grinding coffee for a full pot it would definitely not be worth the time and effort however for a single cup or a drip coffee maker it works really well! The grind size adjustment is on the main shaft of the grinder so I find it is easy to accidentally change the size of your grinds. Definitely have to be careful not to hold to high up while grinding coffee. It’s easy to use and hold. Looks nice and has held up well. The little coffee catch is glass so it doesn’t stain and is easy to clean. The kids love grinding my coffee for me. They find it fun as well. We took it camping and it was great for coffee around the fire too! Just don’t forget to put the little glass container on before you bring….. it makes a mess.

キャンプ用に購入し、10回程使いました。 ハンドルの回転や粒度調節の操作感はとても小気味よく、しっかりと豆を挽くことができました。 豆をいっぱいまで入れると挽き終わるまでかなり回転させる必要があります。手間を楽しめる方にはおすすめできます。 清掃用ブラシがついていますので、使用後はしっかり粉を払い落とすことができます。

As a coffee enthusiast who enjoys the ritual of grinding beans fresh each morning, I’ve tried several manual grinders over the years — including the Prolex — but this one truly stands out. The build quality is excellent, and the precision of the grind settings is remarkable. With 40 adjustable settings, it offers an impressive level of control over grind size, whether you're brewing espresso, pour-over, or French press. What sets this grinder apart is the consistency. Unlike my previous grinder, which relied on adjusting the burr screw and often resulted in uneven grinds, this model delivers a uniform grind every time. The adjustment mechanism is intuitive and allows for fine-tuning with ease, making it ideal for those who like to experiment with different brewing methods. The grinder is compact and portable, perfect for travel or small kitchens. The hand crank operates smoothly, and the ceramic burrs do a great job preserving the flavor of the beans. It’s surprisingly efficient — grinding a dose for espresso or a full cup takes minimal effort. If you’re serious about your coffee and want a reliable, high-precision manual grinder, this is an excellent choice. It exceeded my expectations and has quickly become an essential part of my morning routine.

I completely love this manual grinder! The glass container it's genius to avoid the static. The metallic body feels super resistant. The adjustable wheel works perfectly. I also love that it comes with an acrylic lid, so I normally leave the coffee ground in the night and the next morning it's perfectly fresh. It's also light enough to carry on a trip.

Easy to operate and efficient
