The large flywheel ensures that the grinder runs almost by itself after the first few rotations – even for espresso-fine grind. Its own weight keeps it firmly on the work surface. Holding it with both hands? Not necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCCC Tip\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e63-mm conical burrs with titanium nitride coating provide a tighter particle distribution than smaller conical burrs. This significantly reduces the likelihood of channeling – taste-wise, this means less astringency, clearer acidity structure. For light filter coffee, floral notes (linalool, geraniol) and fruity esters (ethyl butyrate) are cleanly accentuated. With darker espresso roasts, caramel and Maillard aromas like furaneol and 2-furfurylthiol emerge more clearly, without the cup becoming bitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurr Set: 63 mm conical burrs, titanium nitride coated (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrind Adjustment: Stepless, patented, resolution 0.001 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetention: Under 0.1 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Stainless steel with aluminum base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrive: Encapsulated ball bearings, helical bevel gears, large flywheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Funnel: PMMA, magnetically detachable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Eckstein Design GmbH, Leopoldstrasse 214, 80804 Munich, Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAward: Red Dot Design Award 2026, Product Design category\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Combined With\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/neccst-scale\"\u003eNECCST Scale\u003c\/a\u003e – Brewing coffee scale with 0.1 g and 3.2″ touchscreen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/neccst-dosing-shaker\"\u003eNECCST Dosing Shaker\u003c\/a\u003e – 58-mm espresso dosing cup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/neccst\"\u003eComplete NECCST range at CCC\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn short:\u003c\/strong\u003e The NECCST Series 1 is a premium hand coffee grinder from Munich with patented stepless grind adjustment (0.001 mm resolution), a 63-mm conical burr with titanium nitride coating, and zero retention under 0.1 g.
