The Timemore C3S represents the evolution of the popular Timemore C2, a customer favorite cherished for its superb value and grind quality. Taking a significant leap forward, the C3S introduces upgraded burrs, a sturdy aluminum body reinforced with robust bracing, and an expanded grind range covering espresso to French press—all of this at a remarkable price point under $100. Whether you're in pursuit of an economical hand grinder to complement your pour-over or manual espresso setup, the C3S (brew-focused) and C3 ESP (espresso-focused) stand out as our top picks.

What distinguishes the C3S and C3 ESP from the C2 is their versatility. Equipped with Timemore's S2C 660 burr set, these grinders are crafted to handle the entire spectrum of grind sizes, from ultra-fine to coarser grinds suitable for any brewing method. However, a notable distinction arises between the C3S and C3 ESP in terms of their grind adjustments. The C3S provides around 35 usable steps of grind adjustment, where each click induces a more substantial change in grind size compared to the C3 ESP. On the other hand, the C3 ESP boasts approximately 100 usable grind settings, making it an ideal choice for making minute adjustments needed for espresso preparation. The C3S excels in facilitating quick and efficient grind size changes for pour-over or immersion methods.
