the best cheap manual grinder
(according to James Hoffman!)
This lightweight, compact stainless steel, ceramic conical burr coffee grinder is perfect for travel or every day use at home. Enjoy perfect freshly ground coffee , exactly how you like it… anywhere!
What I particularly like about the compact Porlex Mini is that it fits snugly INSIDE AeroPresso so is perfect for travelling. Another plus point that James Hoffman mentions in his grinder review is that the crank handle can be slipped into the slot in the rubber gripping so the handle won’t get mislaid during your travels.
