Comandante Wooden Knob Natural Oak ø 44 mm
Your palm embraces smooth, waxed natural oak, a gentle pressure on the crank, and the steady grinding begins. The bright, lively grain visually matches the wooden C40 and transforms a replacement part into a piece of personality on the counter.
What makes this knob special
The knob is made of solid, waxed natural oak. With an upper diameter of 44 mm, it rests comfortably between your fingers and gives the crank movement a smooth, even run. It can be attached without tools – simply pull off the old knob, put on the new one, done.
Haptics and aesthetics contribute to the enjoyment long before the first sip: a surface that feels good and a wood tone that matches your personal space make daily grinding a moment to look forward to. This is our observation, one of many.

Who the knob is for
For anyone who wants to upgrade their wooden Comandante C40 or replace a worn-out knob. The natural finish is especially suited to the original wooden C40. Wood is a natural product – grain and colour tone vary slightly with each piece, making each knob unique. No one needs it. Those who want it know why.
What goes with it
Further original parts and customisation options 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 section. 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?

What is the diameter of the knob?
The upper diameter is 44 mm – the standard size for Comandante wooden knobs.
How do I install it?
Tool-free: pull off the old knob and push on the new one. No screws, no tools needed.
What wood is it made from?
From solid, waxed natural oak. As wood is a natural product, each grain is slightly different.

From our coffee roastery: For hand grinding, a full-bodied bean that rewards the effort is worthwhile – Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight are our recommendations for the vast majority, dense, chocolatey, nutty. If you're looking for maximum body without acidity, go for Very Nutty; if you want to discover a fruity experience, choose Wild Peach. This is our recommendation, one of many.
