Manual coffee grinders not only produce excellent coffee grounds they also develop muscles

Home > Coffee-Accessories > Coffee-Grinders > Manual-Coffee-Grinders



Manual coffee grinders or manual coffee mills may look old fashioned but they do the job...well!


Actually these manual coffee grinders are really old fashioned - in the way they look and in the way they work.

Back in the day, before all these electric coffee grinders were made, people used these manual coffee mills to produce excellent coffee grounds.

These grinders were built in a very sturdy way but took too much time and effort to make.

The effort you put in grinding the beans could actually help develop even a little muscle. No kidding! You will have to use your arm to crank a set of blades or burred plates. Sorry folks, as the name implies, this is manual.

Despite all the efforts and the hard work, I must tell you, and almost all coffee experts and coffee grinder reviews would agree to this that using this type of manual grinder for your coffee beans will help produce one of the best cup of coffee.

You don't have to worry about having a burnt taste in your coffee beans or too much static.

All you get is a nice batch of coffee grounds and how coarse you want it to be or how fine it is would depend on how long you crank the blades of your manual coffee mill.

To add to that, using a manual coffee mill is actually a very enjoyable experience. Nothing compares to the smell of coffee being grounded in this type of grinder.

At the end of the grinding, you'll be more excited use the fruits of your hard work.

Another thing is that you won't be hearing that loud noise whenever you use an electric coffee bean grinder.

What I love about manual coffee mills is that they can be used as a coffee decor. Whenever your friends come over to your place, it will definitely be a conversation piece. After talking about it, show them how to use it. You can even have them help you when preparing your after dinner coffee.

Is there anything negative about manual coffee grinders besides the effort you put in grinding?

Actually there is, just like any other product, there are those cheap manual grinders being sold. When looking for a brand, look for Zassenhaus coffee grinders.

In my opinion, they are the best in producing manual coffee mills. They listen to the consumers especially when they addressed the problem of manual coffee mills being hard to keep in one place while grinding the coffee beans.

They've designed coffee grinders in such a way that you can actually place them in between your legs or you can have them mounted on your kitchen counter for easier use.

Another negative I see is that, these easy to use manual coffee grinders are quite hard to find.

How much should you spend when getting a manual coffee grinder?

I suggest you go for manual coffee grinders or mills in the $50 to $80 range. These type of coffee bean grinders are usually quite expensive because of their design and the craftsmanship that it provides. Just don't go too cheap on this as it could easily break. And make sure that what you are buying has quite a long number of years for warranty.
