Frequently Asked Questions
Is a hand crank grinder better than an electric grinder?
For flavor preservation and portability, manual burr grinders have advantages: they produce less heat and are quieter. High-end electric burr grinders can match or exceed consistency, but manual mills are excellent for ritual, travel, and small-batch brewing.
Can I use this grinder for spices?
Yes — the burrs can handle many whole spices and herbs, though cross-flavor contamination may occur. Clean the burrs thoroughly between uses.
How do I adjust grind size?
Most manual burr grinders adjust via a knob or collar near the burr assembly. Turn to finer or coarser settings as described in the product manual.
