The C5 is made for those who seek reproducibility, cup after cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTimemore has been working on precise grinding mechanisms since 2012. The patented S2C (Spike to Cut) technology first scores the bean and then cuts it, instead of crushing it – this results in less breakage, fewer fines, and a narrower particle distribution. Coffee Coaching Club distributes Timemore in Switzerland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the C5 offers technically\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt its heart are the 42mm S2C-042-III stainless steel burrs – 19 percent larger than the 38mm burrs of the previous C3 generation. The larger diameter creates an approximately 16 percent longer grinding path and, according to Timemore, an approximately 5 percent narrower particle distribution. In practice, this means clearer, sweeter cups with less unwanted bitterness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe adjustment offers 48 numbered steps with a click pitch of 0.031 millimeters (C5 Pro); the ESP-Pro version works with 0.015 millimeters per step. The numbered steps make it easy to return to a working recipe. The all-metal aluminum body (⌀ 53 mm) with a textured surface is comfortable to grip, while dual-axis bearings on the central shaft ensure smooth, low-vibration operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ctable class=\"ccc-compare-table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eBurrs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e42 mm S2C-042-III, conical, stainless steel (patented)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eAdjustment steps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e48 (numbered, with click feedback)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eClick pitch C5 Pro\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e0.031 mm per step\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eClick pitch C5 ESP Pro\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e0.015 mm per step\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eapprox. 30 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eHousing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eAll-metal unibody, aluminum, ⌀ 53 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eBearings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eDual-Axis High Precision Bearings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eapprox. 640 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e159 × 53 × 163.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable for\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003eEspresso, Pour-Over, French Press, Moka, Cold Brew\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy larger burrs taste different\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe jump from 38 to 42 millimeters may sound small, but it directly affects the cup. Larger burrs, at the same rotational speed, produce a more homogeneous particle distribution with fewer fines below 100 micrometers. This is taste-relevant because fines extract disproportionately quickly: In the first few seconds, bitter phenolic compounds are already dissolved, before the desirable sugars and aromas are fully extracted from the larger particles. Fewer fines mean less bitterness as background noise, more clarity, and a natural sweetness – particularly noticeable in light roasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who grinds by hand and wants a consistent, reproducible grind for espresso and filter coffee.
