78. 1Zpresso X-Ultra manual coffee grinder

Mon Jun 15, 2026, 06:30 PM

5 hrs ago

Adjustable grind size for different roasts / brewing methods, almost silent (so I can grind beans for my gourmet-ish single-cup pourover coffee without waking my wife), and portable for traveling.

The heptagonal burr grinding mechanism gives you consistent granules for a tasty brew. Made in Taiwan, precision engineered, and very durable. Coffee nerds can spend more money on even more rarified gear, but for me this thing is perfect.
