Timemore C3 ESP manual espresso grinder

Timemore C3 ESP Hand Coffee Grinder is more than a tool; it’s a must-have for espresso enthusiasts who value control and precision. Whether you’re a home barista looking for cafe-quality espresso or a coffee expert honing your craft, the C3 ESP has the performance, greater grind control, and user-friendly design to elevate your espresso experience. With this exceptional grinder by your side, you can reveal the complex aromas buried within your espresso beans, transforming each shot into a work of coffee art.

The grinding coarseness setting has been greatly improved, and you will now be able to manage it much more accurately – unlike its predecessors, which only allowed 12 clicks each revolution, this champion enables 30 clicks. The adjustment mechanism is also composed of high-quality steel, so it will endure longer. This allows you to fine-tune your coffee, which is very useful when making espresso.

The all-new ESP model has also replaced the plastic plates and support frames with aluminum alloy, resulting in an all-metal build.

Upgraded S2C burr

The Timermoe C3 ESP features upgraded S2C (Spike-to-Cut) stainless steel burrs, specifically designed for espresso grinding. These innovative burrs deliver a more uniform and finesse-focused grind compared to the standard C3, ensuring optimal extraction and consistently delicious espresso shots

All-metal body and anti-slip design 

The body of the Timemore  C3 ESP is made of a single piece of aluminum alloy, which provides a sturdy and durable construction. The aluminum alloy material also ensures that the grinder is lightweight, making it easy to handle and transport.

The grinder’s body boasts a classic three-dimensional diamond pattern texture that looks attractive and sophisticated while also providing a non-slip grip. This texture gives an extra layer of durability to the grinder, protecting it from scratches and other types of damage. The bottom of the Timemore ESP grinder has been designed with anti-slip silicone pads to reduce friction with the tabletop and prevent the grinder from slipping during use. The silicone pads also help to absorb any shocks or vibrations that may occur during grinding, ensuring that the coffee grounds are consistent and uniform

How to adjust

• Remove the coffee pocket, turn the Timemore C3 ESP upside down and turn the knob clockwise all the way to the fine direction until it can no longer be rotated,  now it is counted as 0 (“zero click”)
• Then slowly release and rotate towards “coarse”. Each time you turn a step of the mortar, it will “click” lightly. Count the number of clicks to get your desired grind size.
