Features:
The iconic and clean design of our C40 grinder has become synonymous with world-class grind performance. Its ease of use and the unwavering performance of our pioneering NITRO BLADE® burr set inside has made COMANDANTE® grinders the trusted tools of choice for coffee lovers all over the world, from coffee producers, via passionate home baristas, to World Brewing Champions. NITRO BLADE® is the result of years of dedicated R&D and the world’s first heptagonal conical burr developed specifically for speciality coffee. Its unique physical and chemical properties set it apart from other conical burrs in both performance and taste.
We seek maximum grind performance and grinder quality because we acknowledge the demanding and skilled work that goes into every cup of coffee, from farm to cup. We stay true to this goal by continually embracing material science and modern manufacturing processes to refine our grinders. We strive to do this whilst maintaining backwards and cross-compatibility, which not only preserves usability for our global user community but also helps to reduce our environmental impact by avoiding product obsolescence.
The technical design of the grinder is the result of many years of research and development in the laboratory at Comandante®. Special stainless steel with a very fine martensitic crystal structure is used for the ultimate Nitro Blade® grinder, which guarantees exceptional taste neutrality is extremely robust, and keeps its edge.
The grinder geometry has been optimized over the years and delivers good productivity, easy handling, and the best grinding quality.
The Comandante® C40 Mk4 has a finely graduated grinder adjustment, which enables some fine gradations within a type of preparation. The click mechanism in the grinder adjuster, which clicks into place, avoids uncontrolled adjustments during grinding and guarantees repeatable settings for all brewing methods. This performance and handling make Nitro Blade® the number-one choice for coffee enthusiasts worldwide, from home baristas to world champions.
The C40 MK4 comes with two bean jars. One amber lens and one clear polymer lens. Both containers are tasteless, food-safe, and can easily cleaned with hot water. They each have a capacity of 40 grams of coffee.
Comandante® products are aluminium-free and are made from food-safe materials such as stainless steel, wood, glass, or high-quality polymers.
High-performance polymers are used in some components of the C40 MK4 to make the grinder a little lighter, dimensionally stable, and very robust. They are BPA-free and have been extensively tested by recognized control bodies and classified as harmless in connection with food.
Comandante® loves wood. The crank knob of the C40 MK4 is made in the Black Forest and consists of solid oak wood - a solid piece of nature with a beautiful grain that fits perfectly in the hand and works ergonomically and efficiently.

The C40 is one of the best hand grinders on the market.
This is a big upgrade on my previous hand grinder. The C40 looks the business and is easy to use. It's a wonderful piece of craftsmanship and engineering. Highly recommend.
