CafeSing GRIZZ 63 Manual Coffee Grinder, 63mm Conical Burr

I have used an 83mm flat burr electric grinder and the quality of grind this produces is similar to that. Nice fluffy grounds that bring out all the flavour of your beans (if you like the conical profile I think this is easily the best option at least under about $800. I am slightly annoying that I bought a new coffee grinder and it came used (coffee grounds inside) and not set properly (it doesn't go to "0" properly) but it is simple enough to figure it out and adjust. The other drawback I would say is that it doesn't have the fine 0.8 micron adjustments of the J ultra so if you really need a precise grind (like for a lever machine) it will be a chore. It also is more effort than the J Ultra or the Potu/Cafesing Orca hand grinders. Not too much really but if you're making 10 shots a day on a light roasted bean this is going to double as your workout machine. It's all metal construction and looks solidly made, If you want an affordable grinder that will reproduce high end performance for one or two people I would recommend

This grinder is incredible. The 63mm conical burr produces a super consistent grind — whether I’m brewing espresso, pour-over, or French press, the results are spot on. You can really taste the difference in clarity and flavor. It’s also beautifully engineered. The build quality feels premium and solid, with smooth grinding and zero wobble. The handle motion is buttery, and despite being a manual grinder, it doesn’t feel like a workout thanks to the larger burr and ergonomic design. The GRIZZ 63 is definitely on the higher end, but it’s worth every penny if you’re serious about coffee. It’s easily one of the best manual grinders I’ve used — sturdy, efficient, and consistent.

I have been slowly upgrading my coffee equipment. While I use an electric grinder for drip coffee, I prefer the feel and precision afforded by a hand grinder for espresso drinks. I have another hand grinder that I really like. I was curious to see how this one might stack up. I'll start with what I like and wrap up with what could be improved. What I like: * You can really load this up with beans. I can easily get enough in to make a couple of espresso drinks, which is great since I usually like to make one for my wife and one for me. * There is a lot of room for adjustments. You can get really fine to rather coarse. I stop shy of the finer settings because of our pressurized portafilter, which can cause our machine to choke on finer settings. It really gives me control. * Consistency - the size of the grounds seem quite consistent at a given setting. I don't see a lot of fine dust created along with the ground size of my choice. * Speed - this grinder is fast. It's the fastest hand grinder that I have used yet. My prior grinder requires about 80-90 turns for a double-shot. This requires about half that. * It's a rigid, solid piece of equipment. The bearings for the handle and burrs work great to keep things centered and working smoothly. What could be improved: * The numbers on the grind setting are not as useful as I would hope. It won't go all the way to "0" before the burrs completely touch. When going coarser, you can actually spin the adjuster so far around that it passes the "0" and other numbers again. At best, it is something you can log and note, but the numbers are not "absolutes" of "0" is fine and "9" is coarse. * There are no instructions included on how to care for or clean the device. For something of this price (you are getting into the range of inexpensive "very good" grinders) I would expect better. The neutral: * With a faster grind comes more resistance and occasional "jams". These are overcome by backing off and trying again. My negatives of this device are just enough to hold it back a star. I really feel that at this price I would expect just a little more. That said, for the quality of grind and the speed at which I can achieve it, I feel it's a good device.

I wanted to try a conical burr grinder for espresso. A hand grinder seemed a good way to start at the shallow end and the CafeSing grinder fit the bill. Out of the box, the grinder is a bit bigger than my flat burr hand grinders. I wear a large glove and without the included rubber bands, the grinder would have been a bit difficult to hold while grinding. I normally break in my grinders with rice or old coffee. Since I had none of the latter, I tried rice. Don't try it... at least not with this grinder. I think the conical burr shape allows too much rice to come into contact with the cutting surfaces and the grinder jammed. I just had to bite the bullet and sacrifice some fresher beans. I've used hand grinders with magnetic catch cups but always knock them loose while grinding. The CafeSing's catch cup screws into the grinder. It takes a few seconds to attach/detach but it's much less time consuming than cleaning up a mess of coffee grounds. The grind handle is a perfect fit. Once you attach it, it won't come loose while grinding but it remains easy to remove when you're finished grinding. The shape of the knob hasn't created any pressure points that will callous my palm should I choose to open a coffee stand with the CafeSing as my only grinder. The specs list the CafeSing as having 63mm burr set. This is bigger than any of my other hand grinders and noticeably requires a bit more elbow grease to turn. I also think that conical burrs have a bigger grinding/contact surface than flat burrs so the extra effort needed to turn the crank makes sense. It seems like the coarsest grind setting is a little coarser than what's needed for drip. I don't think it's quite big enough for press but maybe there's a brew-time variable that I'm not getting just right. The finest setting is more than enough to choke my espresso machine so there seems to be a lot of room on the finer side for experimenting. With all things being equal: coffee in, espresso out, temp, and brew time, I can't tell the difference between my flat burr grinder and the CafeSing. However, as my flat burr grinder was a bit more expensive, perhaps that speaks well for the CafeSing. After about a month of daily use, I'm quite pleased with the CafeSing grinder. I've not had to disassemble to the grinder for servicing and hope this stays the case. Nothing has worked loose and the grinding remains as precise as the the day I opened the box. In cleaning, I have no problem brushing off the coffee grounds unlike some of my other grinders that have a super-static attraction to grounds.

This is an excellent coffee grinder. I make a lot of coffee and make it several different ways that requires different coarseness grinds. For espresso, this works better if you're using a pressurized filter cup, which is much more forgiving of medium grind size. However, for espresso, using a non-pressurized filter cup, this does not grind fine enough, at least not for my machine. I use this primarily for pour over coffee which needs medium to coarse grind size. This also works great for Moka Pot coffee. It's very easy to use and also very easy to clean. It is exceptionallt well made and high quality. The adjustments are very precise and there's plenty of adjustment available. Everything about this grinder is precision and has a very nice hefty and solid feeling in hand. The handle and crank are excellent with no wobbly play when turning the handle. The storage cup on the bottom that collects the grounds is precision milled with fine threads for a perfect fit but I do notice grounds will collect on the inside crease of the cup, but that is minimal. Comes with silicone bands that are a nice feature because they add a really good grip. This is hands down, the best manual grinder I have ever owned.

This grinder has a heft that gives the impression of being very well made. When adjusting or working with the grinder or moving parts, it feels like a precision instrument; solid, strong, and built to last. I've been using it now for a couple of weeks, mostly with a drip coffee makes. The adjustable grind seems to go from percolator to find powder for espresso. The detent style adjustment and markings make it easy to select and be sure you are getting the desired granularity. The grinder does small batches (I'd say 4 cups), I do two batches when making an 8 cup pot. Like any hand grinder, a little effort (not too much) is needed. For me, one of the rewards is not having the loud noise made by most electric grinders screaming at me. I appreciate the relative quiet, especially first thing in the morning. To fill, the handle just pulls off and the beans are poured into the top. After grinding, the bottom unscrews and allows the ground coffee to be dumped into the basket or coffee holder in an espresso machine. Quite simple. The output seems very consistent.

This is a really great grinder. CafeSing always does a great job with their products. I am always taken aback by the price level, but each time, their product quality makes up for it. This is the largest of my manual grinders. It's gonna give you a workout, not gonna lie! The conical burr makes for a good grind. Nice fine espresso grind. But this thing does get a little tough to crank. My other ones do as well, but this one is gonna give you a workout. It's quite heavy too (not surprised - their stuff is always quality heavy... plus this is a bigger than normal grinder). Still, after all the blood, sweat, and tears, I think you'll thank CafeSing for the great cup o' joe. I hope you liked my review. I always try really hard to write reviews are are candid, honest, and helpful for your shopping decisions. No AI here... all the poor writing is mine and mine alone! :-P

Four star only because it is difficult for me to use. I have used a hand coffee grinder before and it had a wider base which made it more sturdy on the counter top which made it easier to turn the handle.

手動なので電動と違って微調節ができます。しばらく電動を使っていましたが、挽きすぎたり足りなかったりでなかなか思い通りになりませんでした。とはいえ、一回ずつ挽くのもちょっと面倒かなと思っていたのですが、こちらは大きめで3杯分ぐらいまとめて挽くことが出来ました。その分、ちょっと力もいりますが、ゴム手袋を着けていたりすると力が入りやすく楽になります。 様子を見ながら手動で挽いたコーヒーはやっぱり美味しくて、これからはこちらで挽くことに決めました。

If you're serious about your morning brew but don’t want to fuss with complicated electric grinders, the ElephantNum GRIZZ 63 is a refreshingly straightforward option. With its hefty 63mm conical burrs and solid stainless steel construction, it promises professional-grade grinding without the noise or bulk of a machine. After putting it through its paces with everything from espresso-fine to French press coarse settings, I’m convinced it’s one of the better manual grinders out there—though it’s not without a few quirks. The burrs are the standout feature—they chew through beans effortlessly, delivering uniform grounds with minimal effort. The adjustment system is precise, letting me dial in the perfect grind size without guesswork. I also appreciate the plastic body’s lightweight feel, though some might prefer an all-metal build for durability. The handle folds neatly for storage, making it great for travel, but the crank can feel a bit stiff with very dark roasts. Cleanup is simple, though static can make finer grounds cling to the chamber. For the price, the GRIZZ 63 strikes a great balance between performance and portability. It won’t replace a high-end electric grinder for speed, but if you value control and consistency (and don’t mind a little arm workout), it’s a winner. Pros: ✔ Large 63mm burrs for fast, even grinding ✔ Sturdy yet lightweight design ✔ Precise grind adjustment ✔ Compact and travel-friendly Cons: ✘ Crank requires effort for dense beans ✘ Some static with fine grounds ✘ Plastic body may not feel as premium as metal

This is the smoothest manual coffee grinder I have ever owned. The grinds are consistent and it takes little effort to grind enough for a quick shot. Great for in the morning when I don't want to wake everyone up. I use it the most when sampling new beans as it allows me to giend enought for a shot while testing the grind ration. The grind settings are usually close to my automatic grinder, so I can easily adjust that when I load in my beans. I recommend.

There is no doubt that this is an excellent grinder. Its conical burr packs a punch and easily grinds any coffee bean without much effort compared to much cheaper hand grinders I've owned. The whole thing is made of metal except for the rubber bands with the logo and company name, and the wood handle. It offers extreme precision depending on your griding needs, with a lot of different adjustments. The container is big enough to hold at least two or three cups worth of coffee too, so you can grind quite a lot at once. For its price though, I would have expected it to be pretty much perfect, but it has one or two things I would have made better. First, the arm can be a little wonky. It fits well on the grinder, but it doesn't always fit exactly right the first time you put it on. At that price, I would have expected a better mechanism. Also, the grinding adjustment ring doesn't make much sense. There are 72 clicks in one turn from 0 to 8 (so 8 clicks per number), but in reality you can start at 8 (so -1 in reality) on one side, make a full turn, and still go up to 4 (which would be like 12). So in total you get about 13 "levels" and 104 clicks. I'm not sure why it wasn't just calibrated to give you the same amount of clicks as the number shows, or why it's using a 0-8 scale if in reality it goes from 0 to 13. At this point, just don't user numbers. Again, these don't make it a bad product. If you just want to precisely grind your coffee, it's an excellent hand grinder. It's just that at that price point, I would have expected everything to be perfect.
