In this video I restored an old Coffee Grinder, made by 'Clarks & Co.' in England
Age: I guess it´s age to 80-100 years
Restoring time: - around 3 weeks
Facts:
This beauty was made in England, and came with a 'Japanning' Finish. Since there were threads everywhere, i wasn´t able to restore the knob in its original way.
Techniques/materials:
For this restoration I chose two main techniques: hot bluing and 'Japanning'.
I chose hot bluing, because it´s the most natural way of bluing, without using strong chemicals. Why? Because the coffee beans get in contact with the grinder, so I wanted to have it in food grade quality.
'Japanning' is a technique, close to powdercoating, but ways older. You mix tar with turpentine and linseed oil, let it sit for a week, brush it on the bare metal and put it in the oven. After baking in 5 steps the result is pretty resistant and deep black.
I hope you have fun with the video! If you have any questions on the used tools, materials or the processes, write it in the comment section - i´ll try to answer as soon as possible!

at 2:23 the inclusion of the OOPS moment and showing the handle was threaded and not pressed on is cool, the end result is awesome, im impressed that you did include the oops moment as it makes these restorations more real as it shows that we all can make errors.
I am not only late to the party I am late to a party where I am mentioned and you use my japanning recipe.
I am ashamed of my tardiness and hope you can forgive me one day.
Let's call the flour, vinegar, salt mixture devil's dough, because the stench is sickening and the mess just as diabolical.
Your restoration is wonderful. Your given information is more and better than ever and your balance between perfection and preservation of history has museum quality.
Thank you my Christiano Bronaldo ❤.
🍺In my japanning recipe, I always use food-grade turpentine🍻
Mr Patina: *"So I started blastin'"*
I don't understand what that's supposed to mean, can u tell me?
@@abdellahbouincha3519 it's referencing a meme from the TV show "It's always sunny in Philadelphia"
@@alexhale6582 I think I won't understand anyways cuz idk that show

I think the white stuff is dried up, old yeasts. Since coffee powder is hygroscopic, it's an excellent substrate for common yeasts to grow on. Left alone, when they finally consumed all of the coffee powder they die and dry up, leaving that white patina (which is quite common on old kitchen tools, and also usually not dangerous for human health). Great job on the restoration, and the video editing as well.
Приятно наблюдать, за работой Мастера!!!😊
I love that high pressure parts washer, thats *click* noice
Very neat indeed, CONGRATULATIONS, impressive, I am 71 years old, I haven't seen one of those since my childhood.
I can´t get used to this beautiful perfection. Every single one is a masterpiece.
Thank you so much! iam glad you like it!
Handbook rescue has a couple of episodes dedicated to 'japanning' recipes including a spray can version.
You've done a great work !
I hope you made yourself a cup of coffee after that ☕️
Such a beautiful restoration. I love the contrast between the brass and the metal.
You did a great job. What a dedicated renovation project. The end result is amazing
I laughed when you unscrewed the handle after trying so hard to get it off. I love that you did not file the manufacturing marks off of it! It’s a part of the history of the piece, so thank you for preserving that!😊
Thanks! 🙂
Lovely to see Mister Patina back at work
Such a sweet job! I bet that coffee tasted just great too...
I like the high pressure washer. Don't recall seeing it before. New? The coffee grinder seems to be well engineered and built with good quality materials. Fantastic restoration! 👍👍👍
Yes it’s new 🙂 thanks!
Bravo! another finely done restoration. Careful attention to detail and well thought out choices. Love watching these! Great Job, Herr P!
Respect for Labor 👏👏👏
Brilliant restoration of a beautiful old coffee grinder
"does this mixture already got a name?" Clever! Nice looking finish!
Love your restoration! I can smell the coffee from the other side of the world! (Australia)😊
Given life to the lifeless with your expertise. A wonderful restoration!
Excellent result, as always. Thanks for the very informative captions. It’s very relaxing, watching your videos.
Thanks! Iam glad you enjoyed!
Прекрасное преображение!
This restauration was brought to you by the word sweet.
Haha! Thats what I wrote!!! 🤣XooX
That comment was sweet!
@@lifewuzonceezr You did? Then I donate all upvotes to you. 😊
This was such a lovely restoration. And really well done. I always enjoy your humor but you had me actually laughing out loud with this one! Mr. P, your videography was outstanding. The closeups were wonderful and I loved the pressure washer. That was great. It felt like I was in your shop and you were pointing things out. Thanks for this!
Thank you so much Vickie!
@@misterpatina I forgot to mention how spot on the storytelling was too. The video flowed nicely and was so enjoyable.😁
There is a deep irony in the first time I've seen you restore something and preserving it's patina in some way, that it's a grinder that would need new burrs. But what a beautiful collectors piece. Please continue this restoration - maintaining the character of the piece!
Also I would have been fascinated to see how you would remake a part like a grinder burr
Very nice,beautiful grinder,never seen one built like this before.should last another 100 years.just keep doing what your doing and carry on.great video.kudos to you sir.👍👍👍😎😎😎
Thank you so much Tom! :-)
Yummy! 😂 This guy is hilarious and seriously good at this profession! 👏 ❤😊
Thanks! 🙂
Cool, dass du alten Sachen neuen Glanz gibst. Du und My Mechanics seid einfach on Point. Seid ihr befreundet?
Yes, sind Kollegen 🙂
@@misterpatina cool
Oh, I love these old things! I'm sure you'll do an amazing job restoring this one!
I absolutely enjoyed this restore. Final result as expected was perfect. Keep it up Sir.
Thank you so much! I will :-)
Applying an original type finish was icing on the cake. Very nice restoration, Sir.
So nice. Just one thing : you should not lubricate metal mechs with linseed oil because it will dry and make a sticking paste
Io ne ho uno, era di mio nonno (1869 - 1957), ma l'ho lasciato come era, con la sua patina di vecchiaia.
Lo tengo come soprammobile.
Wonderful work! Just what a restoration should be. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😊
Wolverhampton. I learned about that place watching Cruising the Cut.
Great job, Mr. Patina and very nice grinder.
Su trabajo Señor es excelente, pero es mas de envidiarse su taller, ya que se ve que tiene todas las herramientas habidas y por haber así como soluciones y químicos necesarios para dar esos hermosos acabados a cada una de las piezas que va reconstruyendo, felicidades. 😊👋👋👋👍👍👍.
Hi Mr P. Love your work 👍
Thanks!
That looks great! Nice restoration
Nice!
Thanks!
Amazing restoration. We will never have these vintage appliances unless someone like you restores them. Thankyou for the video share.😊
Hello mister Patina beautifully restored good job well done
Thanks Vince!
just when you think you've seen everything, they go and put threads where you never expected them. :D great restoration!
0:52 looks like what you'd find in the bottom of a firewood stack, all the tiny little wood pieces lol
😄😄
Thank you for detailing every step, it’s good to learn why you do certain tasks
Mr Patina I love your work and I did subscribe to your channel. I love watching you take these rusty items and turn them into beautiful restorations. Very amazing how you do this. Thank you for sharing your awesome talent with us.
One could say you were not threading lightly on this job😉. Love your work, man!
Haha! Thanks man!
I dont know why. But i love a proper flat head screw removal.
Very good!
I'm from Americana SP Brasil.
I don't drink coffee. cool video by the way.
why is everything related to coffee so royal and classy ?
Very nice "closeup" video work. Japanning was a nice touch.
Every single detail covered here it looks stunning !! So much time and effort and it really shows it looks Amazing !! 👍👍
Bravo, bravissimo. Complimenti 👏👏👏
I've watched more restoration videos than I can remember but this is the first product I've seen from my hometown Wolverhampton ❤
Greets from Frankfurt to WH ✌️
Finally, get to see someone who does not remove the factory character from the project. Well done!
Molto ben restaurato! Bravoooo!
Yea Kai!
Another triumph!
My wife enjoyed this as well since she loves coffee. 😂
Thanks! My workshop was smelling so good at the end 🤣
New to your channel and i love it. Great job.
I have an old coffee grinder that i still use.... its history in our hands.
Another great restoration, I'll have to remember the japanesing technique it turned out great. Thanks for making great content once again!
Thank you so much, iam glad you like my work!
@@misterpatina absolutely, you are an inspiration for me to get better myself! Thank you!
Amazing restoration! Would also loved to have seen the spring and screws that were restored off camera. Great work.
I was wondering why you didn't try to see if it unscrewed before trying the bearing puller LOL Love seeing Japanning going back one items that started out with it. Plus I think if done right it looks better than paint
It looks great and you did an excellent job restoring it as well!!!
I enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
Looks amazing!
Thanks!
So beautiful a restoration!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you so much!
Surprisingly relaxing to watch …
Perhaps because the chaotic world feels like it needs restoring
True!
"Breaded brass sauce" as a name for the mixture. All that would be left to do would be to fry it.
Great job, as always. Thanks for the video.
Haha, thanks for that!
🤣 Google just called it Homemade Brass Cleaner
@@lifewuzonceezr Google isn’t creative 😄
Amazing work. Stumbled upon the stolen video on reddit and just had to sub. ❤
Thank you so much! And welcome to my channel 🙂
Прикольно!))
Как всегда на отлично. Хорошая работа.
What a nice coffee grinder ! Great job!
Great restoration. Lots of attention to detail. I love the parts washer! Thank you for the japaning. I think the stuff in the drawer was enamel. The grinder I used to have had white enamel inside.
Coffee ooooh. Now that’s a great Grind. Great work.
Oh if you want to lacquer the brass in the future I think
Brass music instrument lacquer would be safe to use.
A belated Merry Christmas and Almost Happy New Year.
Very nice work as always M.P...
Thanks Gary!
Whoa. That's really great.
Thanks!
I have always wanted one of these to crack corn for my chickens and ducks
LOOKS AS GOOD AS NEW GOOD JOB
Bro, you are doing really awesome.
Your skills are outstanding and you keep improving.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful!
Thanks!
Sweet! It smells so good, the coffee, I mean.
You are the best!!! Keep it up!!! Greetings from Serbia!!! 🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸 You must to get that impact screwdriver!!!
Thank you so much my friend, greetings from Germany! Haha, i will! :-D
Great job! Now remember to bolt it firmly to the workbench!
I have never seen so many screws on a coffee grinder
Beautiful restoration 😊
I always twist an item first while opening it , works most of the times
Nice to see some more unusual restoration techniques (such as the porridge on the brass and the Japaning) and also a sympathetic restoration that leaves much of the original character - though the sound of the hot bluing makes me want to go and fry some chips!
The threaded handle was unique, can japaning be made with color, all over a very interesting job.
looks great
A thing of beauty
Sweet as you say.
Amazing.
Gorgeous!!!!
Thanks!
Spectacular Restoration !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been gone for a few months so you can imagine how happy I was to see 5 videos that I haven't watched yet...Is that a new lathe?
Haha, welcome back! Nope, still the old one 🙂
Yep. popped open a cold beer, bag of chips and binge watched all 5......Retirement is grand.....@@misterpatina
Getting to this episode late. What an great restoration! The lacquer job was beautifully done, sir. As always, looking forward to the next project! Be safe. Oh, and the parts washer is freaking awesome. Glad you got the new edition.
Splendid job restoring the coffee grinder. It looks much better and it works like a charm too. Excellent work.
Nice work 🖖🏾
Thanks buddy!
Nice one!. Nuff said.🙂
Thanks Rob!
