The TIMEMORE C5 Series builds on the popular Chestnut C3 platform with a larger burr set, improved grind adjustment, and increased capacity while maintaining the compact design that makes TIMEMORE hand grinders so convenient.

At the heart of the C5 is TIMEMORE’s new S2C-042-III 42 mm conical burr set, replacing the 38 mm burrs used in the C3 series. The larger seven-blade design creates a longer grinding path and is engineered to produce a more consistent particle distribution, helping bring greater clarity and definition to your coffee while making the grinding process faster and more efficient.

Designed as a true all-purpose manual grinder, the C5 is a great option for coffee drinkers who enjoy switching between different brewing methods. Its all-purpose burr geometry provides the flexibility needed for everything from finer brewing applications to pour-over, AeroPress, drip coffee, and French press.

TIMEMORE also offers different grind adjustment configurations within the C5 Series, including Standard and Espresso versions, allowing users to choose the level of adjustment precision that best fits their brewing style. Both systems feature more distinct tactile feedback and precise clicks, making it easier to dial in a recipe and return to your preferred settings.

Despite the larger 42 mm burr set, TIMEMORE has kept the C5 compact enough for everyday use, travel, and camping. The redesigned internal structure and slightly wider body provide enough space for the larger burrs while also allowing for a 25 g grounds catch cup, giving you more flexibility when brewing larger servings.

Available in finishes such as Etched Black and Matte White, the C5 combines practical improvements with a refined appearance, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking for one dependable manual grinder that can handle a wide range of coffees and brewing methods.
