Hario Ceramic Coffee Mill "Mini-Slim"

Very easy and comfortable to use.one can alter the grind size very efficiently. Will order one more soon.

Oct 2 - Just rec'd the Hario grinder 1 hr back. Looks very good materials and built quality. Oct 13 - Must have used the grinder atleast 10 times now. No complaints. Its working perfectly as it's supposed to. It's smooth in operation. Grind quality of the coffee is also good n consistent. You can adjust the grind fineness of coffee. I have been able to arrive at my ideal setting of the coffee grind fineness by the 3rd time I used it. It's easy. Recommended to buy in its price range.

This is a great grinder for a trip, unscrews and packs up very conveniently. I have used it for several trips, coupled with a filter and it was bliss ! But do remember, for a decent amount of strong coffee, you need to grind for what seems like 15minutes (!) and what is probably only about 2-3minutes. I also use it when the main grinder is in use for another set of beans, and I need a small quantity for another brewing technique. This probably works best with a French press, for coarser grinds (as it takes less effort and less time). For a fine grind, a longer time is needed. Overall a great buy for coffee lovers!

Excellent product. Very unreliable delivery. Mine was delayed for weeks. However the seller did everything possible to get it to me. Just never could be completely sure I would get the delivery because if Indian customs. Beware of delayed deliveries.

One of the best grinder for getting consistent grind size of any range. Grinds medium to fine size in 2-3 min. Grinding require a bit of manual work for 2-3 min per cup of medium to fine grind which is okey. Best for making fresh coffee for one or two person. One con is that it does not have definite making for grind size but that is its pro also since you can set it to grind from superfine (espresso grind) to very coarse (french press). You just have to find the right setting you want and keep it set there. One best investment for those who do not want to let the subtle aroma of coffee go away with the heat generated during grinding with electric grinder and want a consistent grind size for a consistent brew strength.

works well. There is hard work involved but its ok. One thing they should improve is the bottom of the collector. The collector is 2 layered and there is a gap between outer and inner layer at the bottom this open layer causes drying problem - while cleaning water goes inside

It is Small and Expensive! I have been using it for over a month and it feels perfect my use. Ideal for one or two cups of coffee. Made of polypropylene kind of material but feels well built and works perfectly. The taste of freshly ground coffee and the aroma that fills the house makes it worth every rupee. I put 1 cup of water to boil and start grinding for my french press(coarse-which looks like the default setting on the piece I received) and by the time the water starts to boil I finish with the grinding and ...4 minutes later perfect coffee - overall about 6 to 7 minutes at the most. A morning ritual that I look forward to. Caution: Especially for lighter roasts, if it feels like it is stuck on a bean while grinding, would recommend shaking the mill a bit or rotating the handle back and forth instead of forcing it..

This is truly a value buy. It lasts long and grinds perfectly - I have a wacaco minipresso, an aeropress and a home espresso machine. Easy to use fuss free device. But the burr is breakable - so please store it properly.

Used to owned a javapresse burr grinder bought from amazon US, but it gave problems where the ceramic burr detached from the metal body over time, and unable to grind. Got a replacement and same issue happen after some time. But using Hario this Japanese brand, based on the design it won't happen for this grinder. Been with me for 1 year now and so far so good.

Muy buen producto me ha cambiado la vida con la preparación de mi café

Ich habe diese Handmühle mittlerweile seit etwas über zwei Jahren fast täglich in Zusammenhang mit einer Siebträgermaschine im Einsatz. Funktion: Die Mahlfunktion ist grundsätzlich ganz hervorragend, d.h. der Kaffee wird ausreichend fein und gleichmäßig gemahlen. Der Mahlgrad lässt sich so fein einstellen, dass meine Siebträgermaschine (Typ Quick Mill 0820) das Wasser nicht mehr durch den Kaffee pressen kann. Verschiedene Kaffeesorten bereiten der Mühle keine Probleme; normalerweise ist die benötigte Kraftanstrengung zum Mahlen nicht hoch. Bei hartem, wenig öligen Kaffee geht es jedoch etwas schwerer. Allerdings ist die Mühle nicht besonders griffig, man muss sie also ziemlich fest in die Hand nehmen. Das Festhalten der Mühle kosten im allgemeinen mehr Kraft als das Drehen des Hebels. Mit frisch eingecremten Händen ist eine Benutzung der Mühle kaum möglich. Die Kraftübertragung von der Kurbel auf die Mühle erfolgt mit so etwas ähnlichem wie einem ausreichend groß dimensionierten Inbus-Kopf. Handhabung: Die Kurbel und der darunterliegende Plastikdeckel müssen zum Einfüllen der Kaffeebohnen abgenommen werden. Anschließend ist die Öffnung ausreichend groß, um die Mühle mit einem großen Kaffeelöffel zu befüllen. Die Mühle fasst dabei ausreichend viel Kaffee für deutlich mehr als einen doppelten Espresso. Das Befüllen ist also meiner Meinung nach gut gelöst. Zur Entnahme des gemahlenen Kaffees muss das transparente Plastik-Unterteil abgeschraubt werden. Da ich den Inhalt dann in meinen Siebträger fülle, muss ich das schwarze Oberteil irgendwo ablegen. Dabei fällt immer etwas Kaffeepulver heraus. Die Mühle ist fast vollständig zerlegbar, weswegen eine gründliche Reinigung unproblematisch ist. Der Aufdruck auf dem transparenten Plastik (1 Tasse, 2 Tassen) verblasst mit der Zeit. Die Transparenz leidet im Lauf der Zeit etwas, da das durchsichtige Plastik etwas blind wird (Kratzer?), der Kaffeepulver-Pegel bleibt aber erkennbar.

Che dire, è economica e fa benissimo il suo lavoro. La precisione di assemblaggio è notevole, anche senza "modifiche" (c'è gente che fa qualche giro di scotch sulla macina esterna, e sull'asse di metallo, per ridurre i giochi) si riesce a macinare a 2-3 click dallo zero senza che le macine grattino tra loro, ottenendo del caffè davvero fino. L'involucro è in plastica ma di buona qualità, si incastra tutto bene, tappo compreso. Le macine sono in ceramica e tutto si può smontare completamente per pulirlo. Per macinare 15g di caffè da moka (5 click indietro da quando le macine si toccano) ci si mettono 3 minuti circa, per filtro tipo V60 (8 click) meno, 1 minuto e qualcosa. Per French press ancora meno. Non è veloce quanto i macinini a macine di acciaio ma per quello che costa è davvero un gioiellino. Non tiene più di 30g di caffè, per quello c'è la Skerton. Anche se la Skerton non ha una molla che tiene "in tiro" la macina conica e dicono che sia vagamente meno costante quando si macina grosso. Ma non l'ho mai provata. Ottimo acquisto, il caffè appena macinato è qualcosa di fantastico.

Easy to use - enjoy your delicious coffee
