Comandante Crank Lid for C40 & C60 Baracuda
A gentle click as the lid snaps into place on top of the crank – and the grinder looks complete again, ready for the next grind.
The crank lid closes off the top of the crank, giving it its typical, clean appearance. A small part that can easily get lost or simply deserves a new look – in clear transparent or subtle dark.
What makes the crank lid special
It fits every Comandante C40 crank in MK3 and MK4, as well as the C60 Baracuda – regardless of your grinder's color model. This way, you not only replace a lost part, but also add a fine visual accent with Transparent or Dark.
The fact that a hand grinder can be so easily personalized is part of its charm. Nobody needs a second lid – one wants it because it makes their own device feel a bit more like their own. Our opinion is one of many.

Does the lid fit every Comandante crank?
Yes. It fits all C40 MK3 and MK4 cranks, as well as the C60 Baracuda – regardless of your grinder's color.
What is the difference between clear and dark?
Only the appearance. Transparent appears open and technical, Dark looks calmer. Function and fit are identical.

From our coffee roastery: A beautifully assembled grinder makes you want to grind. For a dense, round cup profile, most people opt for Cozy Chocolate or Nutty Delight. If you like it nutty and without acidity, choose Very Nutty; for a fruity note, there's Wild Peach. This is our recommendation, one of many.
