WACACO Exagrind Coffee Grinder Manual, 38mm Stainless Steel Conical Burr

Exelente molino and fácil de usar

Works as intended and is very portable for travel. Good range on grind size

I must say, I am becoming quite the Wacaco fan. I have gradually come to own several of their products and they always impress me. The Exagrind is no exception. I needed a travel grinder to bring with me on business trips that would grind fine enough to pull espresso with the Picopresso. My prior grinder was great for large grinds but couldn't get a clean espresso grind. The Exagrind does exactly what I need and it does it well. The build quality is top notch. I believe Wacaco changed production methods at some point because the grinder I received in late 2024 has a metal top (not clear acrylic) with a magnet built into the handle to keep it mounted to the grinder body when in storage. The whole grinder (aside from the rubber wrap around the upper body) is made of metal. I see no plastic parts and I have no worry of anything wearing out prematurely. I think this grinder will last me for quite some time and I am glad to own it. I highly recommend to anybody looking for a solid option for a manual hand grinder.

Really comfortable to use, however certain small design choices totally puzzle me, and at this price point I find these issues enough to be unhappy about. 1. The sleeve constantly slides up so you have to wrestle it back down between uses. 2. Adjusting the grind is a bit odd. The first time I thought I'd adjusted it all the way down before counting (yes, you have to count clicks rather than there being numbers to look at), and it turns out I hadn't because the top hadn't been attached to prevent spinning. 3. The handle/cover of the top is innovative, allowing it to be easy to use while grinding which I love, but given that it's a traveling grinder...why would you not give it something to clip into, or at least have enough friction so as to not just fall off if you tilt it at all? Basically, if you are traveling, assume that the lid will fall off and you might as well travel with it totally disassembled. All in all, minor details would've really made this a perfect grinder, but because of lack of practical testing (I have to assume), it isn't priced correctly.

If you enjoy the art of coffee - then this is for you. I’ve used this grinder in my travels across several continents and a handful of countries. I love the sleek design, ease of use, and the consistency of coffee grinds. Worth it.

Very high quality and easy to use and clean.

Remember I gave the Wacaco Exagrind Case a great review, That's because I have this little baby, and her bottom needs protecting. This Grinder is a perfect combination for the Picopresso and all of Wacaco Coffee making vessels. The grid size is easily adjusted from fine to coarse, for espresso to Pour Over and best of all, it fits right inside your Aero Press (without the handle, though). Never the less, an excellent bur grinder. You won't be disappointed.

This thing is awesome. Grinding espresso beans is quick and easy. It takes a trial and error to find your grind size but it can grind beans down to a very fine powder if you set it too fine. The material is sturdy and once you find your setting it’s great.

Excelente producto! Durante años moli mi café con un molino básico de aspas. Me servía medianamente bien para mi Nanopresso, mismo que nunca he dejado de utilizar hasta el día de hoy . Hace 3 años compré la Picopresso y nunca pude tener la molienda exacta con el molino de aspas. Compre café molido de varias marcas y eran los mismos resultados. Iba a las cafeterías de especialidad, dónde normalmente compraba mi granos de café y pedía que me lo molieran y nunca pudieron calibrar la molienda para mi Picopresso, así que opte por guardarlo en el closet, pensando que lo que lo que estaba defectuoso era mi Picopresso. Se acerca mi cumpleaños y quise regalarme el molino para complementarlo con mi Nanopresso. Viendo que exponencialmente mejoro el desempeño de la Nanopresso, saque la Picopresso de closet y para mí sorpresa a la tercera prueba he podido sacar un espresso que no le pide nada a uno preparado en las cafeterías de especialidad que normalmente asisto. En mi caso para la Nanopresso fueron 17 clics y para la Picopresso 15 clics. Espero les sirva mi experiencia con este molino

Perfetto per la mia Wacaco Picopresso il caffè viene macinato perfettamente per un caffè “quasi” come al bar, quasi perché leggermente freddo ma credo sia colpa della tazzina fredda e la velocità di erogazione comunque lo consiglio fortemente

I bought some products from Wacaco for my outdoor activities, such as camping, cycling, fishing, etc. They are small in size and easy to carry.

Excellent grinder.. on par with my Rancillio electric grinder that cost 3 times the price. I was considering a handheld grinder with a 48mm conical burr but the 38mm burr in the exagrind is still excellent and has the advantage of a folding handle design that's great for portability (which none of the 48mm grinders seem to have) - with 16g of beans and the grinder set to 15 clicks (for espresso), I can grind the beans in about 30 seconds without much effort. Grinding for aeropress at 25 clicks is super easy. Feels incredibly robust and well made (I think it will outlast me). Its weighty! adds to the robustness (but may be not the portability). The grind is incredibly consistent (from the 20 odd grinds I have done so far). Anyway, I love it and would recommend with ease.
