If you’re looking for more control, more precision, and a grinder that feels like a serious step up, the Timemore C5 is exactly that.
It builds on everything Timemore does well, but pushes further into grind accuracy and consistency. Whether you’re chasing clean, expressive filter coffee or dialling in espresso, the C5 gives you a level of control that makes a real difference in the cup.
Why the C5 Stands Out
Higher Precision, More Control
At the core of the C5 is Timemore’s S2C-042-III burr set, paired with a finely tuned adjustment system that allows for 0.031mm per click with 48 steps per rotation.
What that means in practice is simple:
- More precise adjustments
- Easier dial-in
- More consistent results
You’re not guessing your grind anymore, you’re controlling it. Consistent, Balanced Extraction
The C5 is designed with a longer grinding path and a burr profile aimed at producing both clarity and balance. This helps reduce uneven extraction, giving you a cleaner, more predictable cup whether you’re brewing espresso or filter.
With a full metal construction using 420 stainless steel and aluminium alloy, the C5 feels solid and stable in hand. The addition of dual-axis bearings keeps the grinding motion smooth and controlled, even when working through denser beans.
The numbered adjustment dial makes it easy to find and return to your preferred grind setting. Once you’ve dialled in your recipe, you can come back to it without second guessing.

STOP MESSY GRINDING WITH RDT
Ross Droplet Technique 'RDT' refers to adding a small amount of water to your coffee beans prior to grinding. This additional moisture helps to reduce static build up in your coffee grinder and can drastically reduce the amount of mess while grinding coffee beans.
COFFEE GRINDERS - BARISTA BASICS

ELECTRIC VS HAND GRINDER?
Electric coffee grinders are quick and easy to use and make grinding espresso particularly easy. Hand grinders on the other hand are slower and demand more work.
But generally speaking a hand grinder that is the same price as an electric grinder will tend to perform better. This is because anything electronic and requires a motor will increase the cost of the final product. -
GRIND SIZE DISTRIBUTION
Grind size distribution refers to the range and consistency of particle sizes produced when your coffee is ground. A 'uniform grind size distribution' ensures that all particles are similar in size, leading to an even extraction and cleaner tasting coffee. Variations in grind size distribution can make your coffee taste muddy as some particle are extracting more than others.
-
CONICAL VS FLAT BURRS
Conical burrs offer efficient & low-heat grinding, making them ideal for home use and are commonly found in hand grinders. Flat burrs generally provide a more uniform grind size and are commonly used in electric coffee grinders, flat burrs are favoured by professionals for their precision and consistency particularly when grinding on finer grind sizes.

SPECIALIST OR GENERALIST
While some grinders can produce a range of different grind sizes it is important to know that they may not be the best quality of grind size. Depending on what types of coffee you're wanting to make, you may want to consider opting for a 'espresso grinder' or a 'filter grinder' rather than an 'all-rounder coffee grinder'
