Thanks Josh, take your time. I appreciate a long detailed video session, no need to rush.
Noted 🙌
No matter how good the build and material quality of the C60 the ridiculously high purchase price is a problem.
It's around £500 in the UK!
How is it even possible to justify this over the top price for a simple hand grinder?
Somehow it seems the company is taking advantage of coffee "nerdism" snobbery to rip people off.
I'd love to see a breakdown of the manufacturing costs vs profit margin.
Comandante really need to reduce the price, sell more to a larger market while still maintaining a decent profit although smaller per item.
Great content!
Josh , the audience will always be divided on this. I go for long format as I have the attention span to cope with it, especially for an investment like this. Look at Lance for example - his content is always long ,and we enjoy every minute. Same applies to you.
Thank you for another great video. From France
Thanks so much ! 🫶
Excellent videos, thank you! I love the C60 however I just put that big knob on my C40 recently… if I hadn’t I’d grab the C60 as I only hand grind. I also have the Apex which is a masterpiece. Like crisp content.
Good choice! thanks for watching
Love your shirt Joshy !
Thanks ☺️
Thank you, Joshua!
I was almost sure there would be part 2 of the Baracuda review, though I wish you'd tell us about the second part coming up. Anyway, big thanks for your effort! Now I'll be wondering if there will be part 3 comparing Comandante with other brands, like Kinu, Niche, 1zpresso... 😅
Also, I didn't mind having breakfast with 30-minute videos, but I understand the idea behind separating them into several parts. More content, views, likes... Just wink at some point, two times for two parts, or three for three, etc. 🤣 Or maybe just specify this in the video description. Just a thought..
Nice - thanks for the input and honesty 🫶 views on content is one measure for successful content- and yes, I’m not chasing that at all - although it’s ‘nice’. However, getting the word out there that this content exists and having the algorithm share it is important and views and such are a catalyst to trigger this.
Happy to keep it to one vid. Suppose I was just in self-doubts 😅
Can you tell me the best budget friendly coffee grinder I can buy??? Prefer electric grinder
baratza encore
Fellow Opus price equivalent to Encore and it will give you more grind range.
Fellow Opus is hard to go by 🙌 check that out, or something similar in that price range
I'm genuinely frustrated by the C60. it's a nice moderate upgrade over the C40 in flavor, but a HUUUUUUGE jump in price, as well as so many features that they should have taken inspiration from from other mfgers innovrations and didn't. they still use the floating burr that's not on a fixed axel like the 1zpresso lineup, their burrs on the C60 are barely changed (which isn't horrible), they still struggle to come close to great espresso, and my god, that PRICE.
I don't mean to suck 1zpresso's wang here, but they're producing grinders that can make better espresso (J-Ultra/JE-Plus), better all around filter grinders (ZP6, K-max/K-Ultra) and 1zpresso's quality of life upgrades (external dial adjustement, fixed burr on the axel, magnetic catch cups, etc) that drastically outpace the C40/C60. Commandante had a real chance to incorporate a lot of the modernizations to the hand grinding world that other companies are employing, but they simply dropped the ball and made a slightly tweaked burr set for their old chassis and just made it slightly bigger while charging 50% more. I WANT to love the C60, but they really made it hard to justify why I should spend that price while others are doing better for cheaper (although I love the stainless steel construction and cheap catch cups of the C40... they do make them meticulously well)
so what is the best espresso hand grinder then?
You don't want to hand grind espresso unless you plan on being single your whole life.
😂😂😂
touche @@bluemystic7501 😆👏🏾. but i hand grind my beans because i love being [more] a part of the process and because i love to "earn my brew" in the morning. machine grinding makes us lazier and simply separates us from our coffee more [in my mind]. so i'd still really love to know what hand grinder is best for espresso @AlternativeBrewing?
@@bluemystic7501 i grind espresso by habd because i'm poor
comandante c60 can't replaced the c40 😂
I personally think 2 shorter form videos would be preferable. Ideally dropped close together (either at the same time or maybe a day apart).
Disregard my other comment 😂
