Manual Coffee Grinder Zassenhaus Montevideo, wooden body with steel, 18×10×10 cm, 50 g capacity

Zassenhaus Montevideo is a compact manual coffee grinder combining a wooden exterior with steel components. Measuring 18×10×10 cm and holding up to 50 g of coffee beans, this hand grinder is built for controlled, tactile grinding with a crank and basket-style handle. The adjustable burrs allow a range of grind sizes from coarse to fine, making it suitable for preparing filter coffee, French press or moka pot extractions while offering a stable, low-noise operation typical of manual mills.

Advantages

The wooden body paired with steel parts provides a balance of aesthetics and durability while keeping the unit lightweight and portable. Manual operation with a basket-style crank delivers precise grind control and consistent particle size when adjusted properly. Its compact footprint and modest bean capacity make it convenient for single-serve use or for taking on trips. The adjustable grind setting supports multiple brewing methods without the need for electricity.

Suitable for

• Single-serve coffee preparation at home
• Travel and camping where compact manual equipment is preferred
• Grind adjustment for filter, French press or moka pot brewing
• Users who prefer a manual, low-noise grinder

How to use

Fill the bean chamber with up to 50 g of whole coffee beans, secure the lid and hold the grinder steady. Rotate the crank with the basket-style handle at a steady pace to grind beans; adjust the burr setting before grinding to select the desired coarseness for your brewing method. After grinding, open the collection area to retrieve ground coffee and re-check the burr adjustment if particle size needs refinement. Clean external surfaces with a dry cloth and follow periodic disassembly instructions from the manufacturer for burr maintenance.

Usage recommendations

For consistent results, set the grinder to a slightly coarser setting than needed and perform a small test grind, then fine-tune. Use the grinder on a stable surface and avoid overfilling above the 50 g capacity to maintain smooth operation. Regularly remove residual grounds from the burr area to preserve consistent particle size and prolong service life.
