Comandante C40 Lab Series Coffee Grinder

The Comandante C40 Lab Series Coffee Grinder is a German-made hand grinder built on the idea that burr geometry shapes the cup as much as the roast or the brew method. It pairs the familiar C40 body with a choice of two burrs from Comandante's Bavarian Burr Lab, Tigershark® and Hammerhead®, each developed for a different kind of coffee and a different style of cup.

Tigershark® For Lighter Roasts

Tigershark was developed for light-roasted coffee, which is denser and less brittle than darker roasts and harder for a conventional burr to break down cleanly. Its dual-row Shark-Tip blade structure slices and fractures the bean rather than simply crushing it. The result is a clear, structured cup with defined acidity, particularly from the lighter roasts it was built around.

Hammerhead® For Dense, Juicy Coffee

Hammerhead began with a single lot of Yellow Pacamara and the question of whether a burr could be shaped to suit it. Its Hexagonal Block Blade geometry handles the size and density of large beans like Pacamara and years of refinement have made it just as capable with small heirloom coffees and everything in between. Comandante describe the cup as dense and juicy, with defined fruit clarity and structured sweetness.

Built On Nitro Rex® Steel

Both burrs are machined from Nitro Rex, Comandante's own stainless steel, with over 17% chromium and a coating-free surface that stays neutral in flavour and can be rinsed clean. The stepped adjustment gives repeatable settings from espresso through to immersion brewing. Two bean jars are included, glass for the bench at home and polymer for the bag, so a second dose is always ready to go.
