Comandante Wooden Knob Beech Wood Wine Red ø 44 mm
The palm wraps around smooth, warm beech wood, a light pressure on the crank, and the steady grinding begins. With each rotation, the warm wine red turns – a small accent that transforms a spare part into a piece of personality on the counter.
What makes this knob special
The knob is made of solid beech wood and comes in a warm wine red. With a top diameter of 44 mm, it rests comfortably between the fingers and gives the cranking motion a smooth, rounded feel. It can be attached without tools – simply pull off the old knob, put on the new one, and you're done.
Haptics and aesthetics impact enjoyment long before the first sip: a surface that feels good and a color that matches one's personal space make daily grinding a moment to look forward to. This is our observation, one of many.

Who the knob is for
For everyone who wants to customize their Comandante C40 with color or replace a worn-out knob. Wood is a natural product – grain and color tone vary slightly with each piece, making every knob unique. Nobody needs it. Those who want it know why.
What goes with it
Further original parts and personalization can be found in the Comandante Collection – central axis, cranks, and the Red Clix for finer grind resolution. The matching grinder can be found in the Hand Coffee Grinders. For brewing afterwards: Pour-Over Drippers. When weighing, your workflow decides – compact and affordable with a scale from the Normcore Collection, with app and flow rate display from the Acaia Collection.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the knob fit my Comandante?

The top diameter is 44 mm – the standard size for Comandante wooden knobs.
How do I assemble it?
Tool-free: pull off the old knob and push on the new one. No screws, no tools needed.
What kind of wood is it made from?
From solid beech wood, colored. Since wood is a natural product, every grain is slightly different.

You can order online at any time via coffeecoachingclub.ch, for questions you can reach us at office@coffeecoachingclub.ch or by phone during business hours. Delivery in 2–4 working days, throughout Switzerland and to Liechtenstein.
From our coffee roastery: For hand grinding, a full-bodied bean is worthwhile, rewarding the effort – Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight are our recommendation for the vast majority, dense, chocolatey, nutty. For those seeking maximum body without acidity, reach for Very Nutty; for those wanting to discover a fruity experience, Wild Peach. This is our recommendation, one of many.
