I have had this grinder for a couple years now and love it and see no reason for further upgrading. I do 23 clicks for medium to dark roast(fresh) in my V60 and 15 for Aeropress. Still tweaking for Moka pot.
I just got my first V60 and I LOVE it, but the blade grinder just doesn't cut it. Just need a Good Burr Grinder like the Timemore C2 and I am all set on my Home Barista journey.
Hi i just wanted your advice , im a beginner and planning to buy my first ever hand grinder for my coffee journey , i dont have much to spend so im thorn whether to buy c2 or c3? i only use it for moka pot , pour over and french press , drink once or twice a day , does the c3 offers more quality taste or does it greatly improve the taste compared to c2? Thanks also if there are other grinder that you can recommend me Thank you
Hey thanks so much for watching! Hmm I’m not too sure about this one, all my experience has been with the C2. I think you should definitely send Timemore an email about this!
This will depend on your coffee and exactly how dark your coffee is roasted / the tastes you are wanting to acheive. Personally I prefer light roasted coffee when making v60 / other pour over's but for dark maybe start at around 20-30 click range and then dial in from there depending on your taste. We have a full blog post on brewing V60 here: thebasicbarista.com/blogs/topics/my-favourite-v60 Hope this helps! Happy Brewing☕️
Cheers mate, hmm not sure about any burr upgrades. I am pretty sure you can purchase a titanium coated burr set maybe? You should double check this as we don't stock these (Just the grinders)
Wow nice man! I guess that works well if you don’t find a difference. For me the difference was massive, Comandante had much more clarity and cleaner taste than the c2 and to be frank any other hand grinder I’ve tasted
@@TheBasicBarista The comentante is wonderful, fine grinding As for the Time More C2 rough, it suffices What is special about comentante is that it is a grinder that lasts more than 10 years. It was with a friend of mine
Are there any significant differences between the Timemore C1 and C2 and if the click settings are the same? Because I would like to test different recipes but there are clicks for example on Comandante or C2 but I haven't found C1. And does the upgrade from C1 to C2 or C3 make sense?
Thanks for in depth review, especially for beginners using the coffee grinder,great job
Thanks glad you enjoyed!
Just got my c2 max, thanks for an in-depth c2 review!
Thank you so much for showing how to put it back together. Really helped me just now
Glad I could help :)
Happy Brewing!
Love it, thank you for the video it helped me a lot!😊
So happy to hear that!
Happy Brewing :)

Hell yeah! It's a great grinder.

That was super helpful, thank you ☺
So happy I could help :)

You got it man!
C2 is a BIG upgrade from a blade grinder :)
Very soon we will be stocking some C3 grinders too, so hang around for that!

I've got older Chestnut C2 with a plastic knob that's breaking. Would new metal knob fit it? I'd assume that thread should be the same.

This some good info, but that music do be a bit too loud
Thanks for the feedback, will definitely lower the volume for future videos
How much clicks should I do for moka pot?
10-17 clicks!
We made a full Timemore C3 grind size chart that you may find useful:

@@TheBasicBarista thanksss i just read your coment. Nowadays, I usually do it with 12 clicks :)
How many clicks should be used for a v60 setup?? Using dark roast coffee
This will depend on your coffee and exactly how dark your coffee is roasted / the tastes you are wanting to acheive.

So cleaning with water is not allowed?
NOOOOO
Can you upgrade the burs on this, like for espresso? Could you review the timemore esp? Well done video though the music is a bit annoying
Cheers mate, hmm not sure about any burr upgrades.

You should double check this as we don't stock these (Just the grinders)
you got the aluminum plate / dial
ima order that
We don't have these as a replacement piece but we do have all the updated c3 grinders that have this upgrade included.
Cheers

try 25 Clicks and then dial in from there!
I used Time More C1 for several years, then I upgraded to Commandante. I didn't find a difference in the taste. I use it for filtering Kmex and V60.
Wow nice man!
I guess that works well if you don’t find a difference.
For me the difference was massive, Comandante had much more clarity and cleaner taste than the c2 and to be frank any other hand grinder I’ve tasted
