Added a C40 Tigershark after a year with their ZP6, a great addition for funkier coffees.

“I got the C40 Tigershark after using the ZP6 for a year. It's been a great addition for funkier coffees”
positive

They bought a Comandante MK4 because it can grind fine enough for Turkish coffee.

“What sealed the deal for me to buy a Comandante mk4 was the fact that the grinder could actually pull off Turkish Coffee grinding.”
positive

About four years with their C40 MK4: a very good workhorse for all kinds of coffee, even ibrik.

“I owned the MK4 for about 4 years now, which I bought lightly used. It's a very good grinder and it's a work horse.”

Their C40 MK4 with Red Clix gives an acidic, bright espresso even with coffees that shouldn't taste that way; a bit disappointed.

“I have c40 mk4 with red clix, for espresso i find that it has accidic/bright taste profile even in coffee which shouldnt have it”

Owns a C40 with Tigershark burrs, a ZP6 and a K6; the C40 is their go-to for filter because they always know what they will get, with a few click settings covering all their coffees.

“C40 tigershark gets my vote as the best jack of all trades for filter coffee.”

After a ZP6, K-Ultra and Pietro, finds the C40 with Tigershark burrs a mix of them all and a great everyday grinder.

“I also vote for the C40 Tigershark. Had Zp6, K-ultra,Pietro....and somehow the Tigershark is just like a mix of these. Great everyday grinder.”
positive

Upgraded from a Timemore C2 to a C40 a week ago and calls it the best decision they've made; finds it more forgiving and rounder than the ZP6, especially with less-than-great beans.

“Just upgraded my C2 to a C40 last week, was the best decision I’ve ever made.”
positive

Owns the C40 MK4 and a ZP6 and would keep the C40 if they had to choose; the click system is easy once you get used to it.

“I’ve got the C40 and ZP6, and if I had to pick just one, I’d go with the C40.”
