Thank you so much for showing how to put it back together. Really helped me just now

[@TheBasicBarista]

Glad I could help :)
Happy Brewing!

I have had this grinder for a couple years now and love it and see no reason for further upgrading. I do 23 clicks for medium to dark roast(fresh) in my V60 and 15 for Aeropress. Still tweaking for Moka pot.

[@TheBasicBarista]

Hell yeah! It's a great grinder.

[@iamfadyhany]

Love it, thank you for the video it helped me a lot!😊

[@TheBasicBarista]

So happy to hear that!
Happy Brewing :)

I just got my first V60 and I LOVE it, but the blade grinder just doesn't cut it. Just need a Good Burr Grinder like the Timemore C2 and I am all set on my Home Barista journey.

[@TheBasicBarista]

You got it man!
C2 is a BIG upgrade from a blade grinder :)
Very soon we will be stocking some C3 grinders too, so hang around for that!

[@haganame1240]

I've got older Chestnut C2 with a plastic knob that's breaking. Would new metal knob fit it? I'd assume that thread should be the same.

[@TheBasicBarista]

Hey thanks so much for watching!
Hmm I’m not too sure about this one, all my experience has been with the C2.
I think you should definitely send Timemore an email about this!

[@chasep05]

How many clicks should be used for a v60 setup?? Using dark roast coffee

[@TheBasicBarista]

This will depend on your coffee and exactly how dark your coffee is roasted / the tastes you are wanting to acheive.
Personally I prefer light roasted coffee when making v60 / other pour over's but for dark maybe start at around 20-30 click range and then dial in from there depending on your taste.
We have a full blog post on brewing V60 here:

Hope this helps! Happy Brewing☕️

[@Bigjuergo]

how many clicks for espresso?

[@JKTF476]

Can you upgrade the burs on this, like for espresso? Could you review the timemore esp? Well done video though the music is a bit annoying

[@TheBasicBarista]

Cheers mate, hmm not sure about any burr upgrades.
I am pretty sure you can purchase a titanium coated burr set maybe?
You should double check this as we don't stock these (Just the grinders)

[@ahmedasawyi2454]

I used Time More C1 for several years, then I upgraded to Commandante. I didn't find a difference in the taste. I use it for filtering Kmex and V60.

[@TheBasicBarista]

Wow nice man!
I guess that works well if you don’t find a difference.
For me the difference was massive, Comandante had much more clarity and cleaner taste than the c2 and to be frank any other hand grinder I’ve tasted

[@ahmedasawyi2454]

The comentante is wonderful, fine grinding As for the Time More C2 rough, it suffices What is special about comentante is that it is a grinder that lasts more than 10 years. It was with a friend of mine

[@TheBasicBarista]

@@ahmedasawyi2454 ah I understand, thanks for clearing this up!
Also thanks so much for watching my video 🤙☕️

[@Oroshamo]

This some good info, but that music do be a bit too loud

[@TheBasicBarista]

Thanks for the feedback, will definitely lower the volume for future videos

[@arjay2002ph]

you got the aluminum plate / dial
ima order that

[@TheBasicBarista]

We don't have these as a replacement piece but we do have all the updated c3 grinders that have this upgrade included.
Cheers

[@chasep05]

How many clicks should be used for a v60 setup

[@TheBasicBarista]

try 25 Clicks and then dial in from there!
