Important Note About Your Manual Coffee Grinder
Dear Customer,
Thank you for choosing our manual coffee grinder. We want to ensure you have the best experience with your product, so please take a moment to read the following information:
The handle and the crank arm are designed as separate pieces. They are intentionally made with a movable, non-fixed connection to allow for smooth operation and adjustment. Therefore, a slight feeling of looseness or play between them is completely normal and part of the design.
Noise During Use
You may notice a sharp or squeaking sound during use. This is caused by metal-on-metal friction at the handle joint.
🔧 Simple Solution:
Apply a small amount of lubricant or cooking oil to the connection point where the handle meets the crank arm. Rotate the handle a few times to distribute the oil evenly. This should eliminate the noise.
We appreciate your understanding and are committed to your satisfaction. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact our support team.
Happy grinding!

Shipping was fast and there are no issues with the product. The body is made almost entirely of metal and feels heavy, with no wobbling; it’s of very good quality. Even the sound of the zipper when opening the powder container is cool.
To confirm if the received product is genuine, scan the QR code on the outer box to access the authenticity verification site, where you can enter the serial code. You can find the serial code by clicking on the part below the QR code. If the serial code entered here is authenticated, it will be displayed in Chinese. What’s great is that the date and time of checking are all recorded to prevent counterfeiting by reusing serial codes. I will attach an image, but please note that it was originally in Chinese and has been translated into Japanese and English using Google Translate for reference.
Finally, I will introduce a method to set the dial to zero. At first, I suspected it was a defect because the dial stopped at around 0.5 before reaching zero. However, if you turn the handle slightly in the opposite direction where the dial stopped and then twist the dial, it reaches zero with a light force. This method was taught to me by a user of 5chan, a Japanese anonymous bulletin board.

Very high quality item all metal and fairly weighty. Beautifully finished and presented with clear instructions in english and chinese.
The grinder produces a very even result with very little effort required. Cannot imagine how this model can be improved upon. It will grind to a very fine powder if required for real turkish coffee.

Very good product. It is necessary to try different grinding levels to find the ideal point for a perfect espresso, and that is precisely what makes it great: it offers many options to adjust the grind according to your taste.
It should be noted that the grinding time varies depending on the configuration you choose; for example, from level 6 downwards, the process may take a little longer, but it is completely understandable due to the fineness of the grind.
In terms of quality-price ratio, it seems to me one of the best that can be obtained currently.

The best purchase of this year is a high-quality product that feels premium in finish. It holds 30 grams of coffee, the grind is excellent, and the adjustability is very precise—just what I needed to make coffee preparations in V60 or French press.
As a coffee lover, it has been the best.

The product arrived in its original, complete condition, with excellent workmanship, and everything works smoothly. The coffee grounds were very finely and evenly distributed, making it great for pour-over brewing.

The product arrived on time. The packaging is decent. It works properly. I’ve been using it for two weeks now with no complaints. The grind size can be adjusted perfectly; one of the advantages of this coffee grinder is that the grind size can be adjusted from the inside rather than the outside. You don’t have to worry about disrupting the grind while grinding. I recommend it to everyone.

Excellent quality, it is heavy and feels very strong. Grinding is consistent and is capable of grinding very fine. Now using 1.0.0 setting for non-pressurized basket and delivers excellent coffee! !
