The Timemore S3 ESP hand grinder is the next evolution of the high-end hand grinder in the Timemore segment, the Chestnut S3. The main difference to the previously available S3 is the grinder (SUS420-EI) installed in the S3 ESP, made from the same steel as the burrs of the Timemore Sculptor 064S and 078S. This sounds promising and, according to the manufacturer, allows for an even more optimal particle distribution, tailored for espresso preparation. In terms of other technical data and visual presentation, the S3 and S3 ESP are largely identical and impress across the board.
The new, espresso-optimized grinding mechanism is also continuously adjustable, thus setting no limits in the search for the optimal grind size. The integrated ball bearing system makes the hand grinder smooth to operate. At 700g, the S3 ESP is not a lightweight, but it feels solid in the hand. The craftsmanship is high-quality and promises durability.
