The BEST 1Zpresso grinder? My Verdict 

Thanks for your thorough reviews! There is a lot of nuance in comparing different brands and models of gear, and I appreciate all the time you put in to this. I was specifically looking for a grinder that could do both pour over (my main daily coffee) and espresso (the occasional coffee for frothed drinks or and extra zip for long days or nights I'll be up. Yours is the only that made it really clear that I could have a good grinder that does both and without going way over my intended budget. JX it is (chosen over the Timemore C3 and Chestnut Slim Plus). Thanks!

Glad to see another video by you! Well down and comprehensive as always

I spent last night binging on your videos, trying to choose a 1Zpresso model. I have to say, your reviews are amazing. You really give a clear idea of the products. The usability, the flavour, where and how they sit compared to other products. You have a gift for determining the information that we need in order to make an informed decision. So many reviews are lacking in info and overflowing with ego and superfluous commentary. Yours I find to be very thoughful and thorough and balanced (just like a fine cup haha!). I adore watching Hoffman videos but when it comes to reviews...I'm going to say you've got the edge. I sure hope you keep up with this pursuit and that your endeavour can grow. You deserve it and we need people like you. Cheers! I was leaning towards the JX (to grind espresso for 2 months until I receive a Niche, and to be my forever pourover-dedicated grinder). But now I'm thinking the K-Max will provide a nicer workflow, but more importantly, a different flavour profile compared to the Niche and the JX. I'm not really certain of which flavour profile I prefer at this point so I thought this would be a good path of discovery to go down. Otherwise, if I knew I really prefer huge flat burrs, I might just be tempted into a Wilfa with SSP. But for now that seems a bit much and potentially not necessary.

Best reviewer of 1zpresso out there. You helped me decide between Q2, JX and JX Pro. Thanks 🙏 waiting on my Q2 hepta to arrive this month!

Love Love Love your videos because of you I bought my first hand grinder as (JX-Pro) and a year later bought the JX because I got tired of changeing between settings for poor over and french press all the way back down to espresso. But I have to say the JX-Pro is always producing some tasty espresso and before bought the JX it was making amazing cups of coffee. Again thank you for your videos they have given so many of us the information needed to go ahead and drop the money to buy a life long grinder. Thanks again Happy new year and God bless (:

I've had the espresso focussed (and now discontinued) JE-Plus with coated Italmill burrs for about 1.5 years now and it's been really great for my Cafelat Robot, I couldn't be happier. The magnetic blind shaker fits perfectly on top of the Robot portafilter and the adjustment steps are great for espresso. I also used it for pour-over, however, recently I added the JX for pour-over/Aeropress, so the JE-Plus is now my dedicated espresso grinder. If I had to find an espresso grinder in their current sortiment I'd probably opt for the J-Max because of the tiny 8 microns adjustment steps. My JE-Plus has 12.5 micron steps and a single click can make a noticeable difference, so for espresso I think it's worth to get a grinder that is primarily an espresso grinder. I just wish the J-Max had a blind shaker option, I really got used to that in my workflow. On the other hand, the K-Max with 22 microns is very appealing as an allround grinder, but it's probably slightly more pour-over/Aeropress focused. The more expensive K-Plus appears to be a K-Max plus blind shaker, but I think the blind shaker is mainly an advantage for espresso, I wouldn't bother too much about it if it's primarily for pour-over. On the other hand the blind shaker also fits perfectly on top of an Aeropress, so it can still be a plus for this use case. I love my new JX grinder, too, it's really super fast. The only drawback is that I've been spoiled by the JE-Plus' magnetic receiver. Also, for most beans 30g is the absolute max for the JX, I sometimes have to start grinding with the handle not fully attached for a few rounds and then push it in completely. It's not a problem, but the larger capacity of a JE-Plus which I think is identical to J-Max and K-Max would be better. Still, I couldn't justify to myself to spend quite a bit more money for a receiver and slightly more capacity. I was considering the Q2 as well, but I couldn't find the heptagonal one anywhere when I was looking a few weeks ago. Regardless of heptagonal or pentagonal versions, ultimately for me the capacity of the Q2 appeared too small. It looks perfect for a single dose, but probably couldn't handle 2 in one go, so I gave it a pass.

I bought the K-max after watching this as my first grinder and it’s currently my only grinder. I make more in my V60 than anything, but wanted the ability to make above average espresso as well. So far it has not disappointed! By far the tastiest pour over I’ve ever had - but to be fair I went from pre-ground Starbucks to whole bean specialty coffees. It was like going from a Civic to a Ferrari

You cut throught the Gordian knot of 1Zpresso model confusion with a superb presentation, thanks!

Thank you very much for an impressively informative and detailed comparative review out of the jungle of 1Zpresso grinders. There is already a Q2 available with hexagonal burrs on the China market (same existing outer body). It’s hard to find at the moment. You’re right that 1Zpresso appears to have adopted the East Asian smartphone manufacturer philosophy of: 1) “There’s a model for everyone” 2) frequent new model or update releases 3) varying models and availabilities for different parts of the world Fortunately, their products are of excellent quality and performance.

Hey, thanks for your videos! I bought the JX after watching your channel. I appreciate your attention to detail! Can't wait for it to come in.

I appreciate how you recommended grinders based on taste preferences! 👍

Illuminating, well thought out, and well presented. Thank you sir, you really helped me out with some of my first world problems today. Cheers!

Thanks for making this! Your insights are appreciated!

Thank you for the video, Asser! I was starting to get confused by all the 1zpresso models.

Thank-you Aasser for this very detailed and informative video. I was planning to purchase the J Max exclusively for espresso, and keep my low cost Krups electric grinder for drip coffee. We begin our morning with drip coffee (65 grams of beans). Based on your video, and your demonstration of the speed at which this grinder can grind, and the ease of changing grind settings, I just purchased the K Max. This will now be the ONLY grinder in my kitchen. I'm sure I will notice a richer more flavourful cup of drip coffee with this high precision grinder. Consistency of the grind size is paramount, and it sounds like the K Max is now the gold standard of performance in this regard.. Thank-you again!!

Great review. You are straight-forward and well-articulated

Thank you for your comment about jx being suitable for manual lever espresso machines. I've been scouring the Internet for this info! Great review!

Always interesting to see your channel. I own both the JX and the JXPRO. I enjoy them both. The water droplet technique works fine for me reducing nearly all the static.

Another awesome grinder review, sir! I think 1zpresso is going to have a tough competition soon. Try looking up or reviewing the Kingrinder lineup, like the K2 and K6. Based on what I read, they're basically like a cheaper version of 1zpresso but with same or maybe even better performance.

Wow production quality in the videos improved, love it dude

I have some version of the K-Plus. It is expensive but honestly fantastic all around. The convenience of the magnetic catch cup and the outer adjustment ring are things I would never ever give up on another hand grinder. They probably do release way too many models which can be very confusing for the customer , but at least they innovate heavily with these sorts of features. It is this innovation and convenience which leads me to keep recommending them to people over other popular grinders such as the Commandante.

Great comparison video! As of April 2023, some of the 1zpresso are on sale on their website. I just placed an order for the J-Max to be my dedicated espresso grinder.

I love my K-max. I use it only for pour-over coffee and once it’s calibrated, it’s a pleasure. I enjoy the actual grinding and observing the differences among beans and the weight and feel and am totally happy I spent the absurd amount of money ! In the past 8 weeks it’s been in Massachusetts, Maine, st Thomas ( a tad weighty but my bathing suits were light so coffee and books) and I have enjoyed the heck out of it

I just got the K-plus, upgrading from a cheap electric burr(Sboly). So much more consistent, no big surprise there. What really impressed me (and sold me on it) was the grind time. I thought I'd get this grinder as a way to get great pour-overs with espresso capabilities every once in a while. My thought was I'd get a flat burr electric for espresso later on and therefore have dedicated grinders for both. Now that the K-plus is in my hands, I still think I'll follow that plan, but solely to have a flat burr. I really don't think that there is much to be gained in workflow speed from an electric, the K-plus is wicked fast, consistent and virtually no retention. Grind effort is pretty easy, even with light roast at 3.5 clicks. I'd need a pretty fast recovering espresso machine to outpace the grinder workflow. I have zero regrets, for anyone considering, buy one (any of the line from what I gather in this video and my experience with the one product).

Thank you for a great review! I will be considering the JMax or Jx-Pro

I moved up from the plastic Hario grinder to the Jx Pro and my life will never be the same. I am now experimenting with every type of brew method. I just bought a rebuilt Gaggia Classic Pro without really ever having had much espresso before. I have had about three 36 gram doubles a day for the past two weeks, and I'm getting a little jumpy.

I have the k-max and love it so far . Coming from a 30 hand grinder with ceramic burrs along with an electric blade grinder . The quality is miles above the later.

I’ve had the JX for a little under 2 years and it was a great upgrade from my old Skerton. Your in-depth review actually encouraged me to get it! My only real complaint is the rubber sleeve loosened and slips while using. I noticed it within my 1st year owning it and contacted the company about it. They said cleaning the sleeve would help, but no luck. I’ve read other users also saying their JX & JX Pro rubber sleeves loosened as well. Also, the static issues are real. I have to brush the fines that gather on the dial and catch cup after each use.

Great video! I'm a 1Zpresso reseller. We still sell way more JX-pro's than JX or J-max, I guess it's just the right price/feature balance for a lot of people. I agree you don't always need the 12,5 micron resolution of the JX-pro with manual espresso, but having a top adjustment compared to the JX's bottom adjustment is still appealing to a lot of our customers apparently. The J-max isn't that more expensive than JX-pro if you take into account that half of the price difference is in the cylinder case that comes with it. (and you get the outer adjustment and magnetic catch cup too...) The K-series are identical, the only difference is the catch cup. K-pro has a screw-on cup, K-max has a magnetic cup, and K-plus has a wider magnetic cup with the 2 bottoms, flat or grounds shaker. For espresso, the grounds shaker fits perfectly on a 58mm basket, a Pro2 basket, etc so (to me) really worth having. The K-plus also has the nicer square case. The pentagonal Q2 has a burr that's similar to the Timemore C2 in design, but AFAIK it's not the same.

i love my jmax for both manual espresso and filter coffee. i know the general opinion is it's not optimal for filter but I enjoy what comes out of the cup and so does my family who I primarily brew for other than myself, so it's good enough for me. I dont need to win a barista competition or do a cupping with the ultimate clarity as long as I get something satisfying out of the brew and my brews have still been plenty fruity, plenty flavorful

I love my K pro. As a tip: DON'T place the head upside down often when storing. I did that so the bits of coffee remaining inside would not fall off to the counter, now I can see one or two scratches on the otherwise beautiful aluminium :(. Also another tip: If you look at the top piece on the bottom side (the lower parts of the burrs) you will notice some brown 'dent like' shaped thing on it. At first I PANICKED cause I thought it was rust and I ruined my grinder with RDT. Nope, it's just coffee oil, and it comes off easily with a Q tip.

Really thinking about getting the K-Max. I currently have a Hario Slim and a Cuisinart "burr" grinder (block burrs I think). I currently brew with a Ninja Hot and Cold machine, uses #4 cone filters. However, I may get an Aero Press or maybe a manual lever espresso press, at some point.

Thank you! The 1Zpresso website is a confusing wall of text and hard to compare the various models. They hide the direct comparison in an FAQ. This video makes is clear the differences between the models.

Thanks. I’ll be interested in comparing the different grind size settings on the Sette for dialing in the lever vs the GCP. Enjoy your videos.

The cellphone analogy is a good one, I don't need to upgrade from a Samsung S20 to S21 or Apple iPhone 12 to a iPhone 13 unless I'm the type that wants the latest and greatest. I'm happy with my Jx Pro and small changes and improved features isn't going to get me to rush out and replace it.

I've been debating between the K-max and J-Max with emphasis on espresso 60% of the time and the rest on pour over. that said this is really helpful and i may just go with the K-Max

I have the Q2 with heptagonal burrs. It’s awesome. I see it is slower to grind than the other models, but it’s fast enough for me, and I have no issue with it because the feel of grinding coffee with it is so nice and pleasing. Another nice part about is that the grip part unscrews so you can easily brush and blow fines out from the top chamber for a quick cleaning. You can only grind up to 20g at a time, but that’s not such a big deal for me. It really is a joy to use everyday.

Just picked up a K-Max. Holy cow that thing is impressive. Still learning buy I"m freaking amazed.

Thank you for this awesome review! Do you have a picture comparing the outer/inner burr sets of the older k plus to the k max?

you just made my day i feel most youtubers have been unfair by judging grinders for having to large steps im a happy owner of a 1zpresso q2, and i take it everywhere, i brew whole chemex'es for family with it, a lot of pourover on my origami, aeropress go on my hikes, and sour-candy shots, turkish ibrik coffee, and even great espresso, and hitting the closest step on the grinder, and then adding ors subcracting 0,2 grams or so, and you'll hit the goal. when i bouth the q2 i were so afraid i would waste my money, and had to upgrade to be happy, but i couldn't be happyer, id love to own one of the flagships, but they are too bulky for my kind of backpacking and at home my electric grinder do almost as god a job as the q2 :D

Bought the J-max after coming across your review while researching for my first grinder. This is my first foray away from Nespresso and the like, and I’m enjoying the learning experience. I’ve a D’Longhi Dedica which, again, takes a bit of getting used to. I’m still hit-and-miss with the fineness of the grind and weight I put in the basket… not to mention I haven’t a clue on what beans I should really be using. If you’re bothered, I’d love to hear of any pointers you could give me? Thanks

I use my k-max I picked up last month for every brew I make... I prefer it over the Encore and love the ritual. I also think it makes better coffee.

Hey great video! thanks! May I know what was your grind setting for JX (non-pro) when you did this video? 12g at 13-15 seconds. With light medium roast, I did 15g (63 clicks) at 23 seconds and 20g at 30 seconds, and I was turning the handle at your speed. Wondering why it seems slower instead of 1g per second.

Time for an update to this! Looking forward to hear your opinion of the new X-pro! I think i'm gonna take the plunge and get it, as it sits between the JX and JXpro but is smaller ! But does it fit inside an aeropress....

Appreciate your thoughts & I just got the JX. I'm wondering if anyone else is have grind issues though. I use about 60 clicks for pour over (as I understand you do roughly) but, the grind is much too fine. ...Especially compared to the more course grind you use for osmotic V60. Thanks for any thoughts.

I've tried them all and to me the JX-pro is still king, all-rounder grinder. Amazing flavor and smooth operation. There's NOTHING I would want from its bigger brothers in terms of performance, flavor or quality. In fact, I love the JX-pro adjustment knob which is hidden under the handle lid. This is cool because you just can't touch it accidentally and change your setting while grinding. Also the wider body and upper opening makes it easier to fill the beans without making a mess. JX-pro is superbly adjustable (only second to the espresso-oriented Jmax, and not by much) and makes absolutely delicious and sweet filter and pour over coffee. Less parts, easy to clean and calibrate. You may think that it's no longer easy to recommend given that price wise the newer Jmax or the Kpro aren't quite far. And I agree, most people would just pick the freshly released models for a similar price BUT if you look closer, the JX-pro is still the best option as all rounder, technically speaking and it's also cheaper

I just ordered the K-max, to replace my Graef CM800 grinder that got me into this whole coffee mess. I will be using it for everything from french press to hopefully espresso, once I get a machine. I just hope it will make it easier to get a good cup, I've been struggling sometimes with the Graef. What settings do you recommend to start out with for V60? I'm using the Tetsu Kasuya 4:6 method, it seems a lot more simple to me, compared to James Hoffmans method. Love your videos, keep them comming :D

We Want More Videos from the mysterous Coffee master!!

I know you are really into 1Zpresso grinders, but I'd be very curious to hear your thoughts on the Timemore G1 plus, and the newest Normcore, especially for pour over and aeropress.

I'd love for you, or someone to do some comparisons of the best hand grinders vs the best home electric grinders like the niche zero.

I’m torn between a J-Max and K-Plus. I’ll be using mostly for espresso, and a very occasional moccamaster drip or French press. The K-plus has the blind basket that looks quite useful and less messy for espresso workflow, and easier to switch between brew methods, but the J-Max is supposed to be better for espresso. Any recommendation?

for mr Chronicler and others with input: I do mainly dark roasts and I'm looking for a portable grinder for pour overs and the choice is between either the Q2 pentagonal (119 eur) or the JX (159 euro) is it worth the extra money and weight for the JX or is the Q2 pentagonal the best option in your opinion? cheers for potential input and great vids! =)

Hi, great video! What is the best setting for v60 using heptagonal q2? Currenly waiting my heptagonal q2 arrive. Upgrading my $10 grinder😂

Dude izpresso changed the game with the external adjustment. I went from a jx pro to the k plus, and just the overall user experience is so much better. I used to be discouraged changing brew methods just because i didn’t want to count 3 or 4 damn rotations on the awkward and small adjustment ring on the jx pro lol

I received my J Max today and the adjustment ring and thumb nut (two bits from the top of the shaft) were loose in the case. It also seems like the burrs are stuck. Any Ideas? I saw this happen to someone else in an Amazon review. Bleh. Edit: I decided to try gently tap the shaft with a screw driver and the burrs released. Did a quick test and ground for what should be close to my moka pot settings on my Q2 and got a very similar grind consistency. I imagine this is just that 1 in 1000 case where the assembly isn't quite 100% perfect.

A reworked question for Coffee Chronicler.....Do you think there are any electric grinders (for home use) that can grind for pour-over as effectively as the Comandante C40? (assuming med-dark roasts)?

Thanks for review what grind settings are you using for moka pot ?

What would you recommend for day to day Aeropress usage?

Great video! I find your content super helpful :) I'm just getting into expanding my equipment. At the moment, I have an Aeropress and a borrowed grinder from a friend, but plan to add both filter coffee and a Sage Bambino Plus. Is the K-Max suited to find a good setting for the Bambino (which I plan to make 60-70% of my future coffee with), or would it be hard to dial in, since the steps between settings are not small enough?

I went and got a 1zpresso J-MAX and felt like it was a little lacking at first but after getting used to it. I like it a lot. only gripe is that I can't grind 30 grams all at once because the cup is too small to handle all 30 grams. I instead do 2 shots of 15 grams and the grinding is so incredibly fast that it makes the gripe almost negligible.

What to get j max, jx pro or k max for, mokapot/v60? I Love sweet, fruity coffee with aromas.

Hi there! Very much appreciate your videos I'm curious which of the grinders would be best for a cafelat robot? I think i remember in one of your previous videos that the K-Plus wasn't that good, but am not sure if the updated burr in the K-max/K-plus would be ok? I'm coming from a $20 blade grinder and moka pot and it's time for an upgrade 😅 I don't have a robot yet, but will be looking to get one soon. From the videos, it seems like that the JX is best for brewed coffee...so part of me is thinking of getting a basic JX for that..and perhaps a seperate J-max/K-Plus (or even a specialita) for the espresso shots..particularly if it's a lighter roast as I prefer those. I just don't know how good any of the hand grinders here would be good enough for the robot...or if I get a hand grinder good for the robot, it won't be as good for brewed coffee...thoughts?

I might get a Flair Pro2, would JX enough for the brew? thanks 🙏🙏

Kudos for the great content! What area your thoughts on the K-Plus. Would it better than ZP6 for brewing?

Can you please explain what setting you recommend for pour over on the JX new version. I have heard two full rotations-this +5 clicks but all of this just seemed too fine to me. Do you recommend under two full rotations?

Will the Q2 (5-core) grind well for the picopresso, if so both are tiny so will be a great combination.

I got the K-Plus, but I didn't know they had an old and new burr design. is there a way to see which one it uses?

I have been using K-max for espresso and pour over. These days I have an idea to separate the grinding for expresso and pour over. I heard about the Q2 is very similar than Comandante C40. I'm hesitating about these two grinders. Have you any suggestion for me? Thanks!

*Addendum:* Maybe I didn't state it clearly enough in the video, so I want to repeat it here: The minor K Max outer burr redesign has been a game-changer. It's now (in my humble opinion) the best multipurpose grinder that you can get for under $500.

Thanks for review just got my K-Max recently. Finally I found someone call this brand easy-presso like me not one-z-presso YEAH 😁(just my understand since I know this brand from e-pro model in 2018 and I think this company from china and in chinese pronouced 1 as i-i so I read it ii-z-presso since then)

Great comparison. Which year did the JX change from their initial release version? Thanks!

Thank you for this video. Been intrigued by hand grinders for some time. I got a Wilfa Svart already. I’m wondering if a hand grinder would be an improvement for Hario V60, Chemex and AeroPress?

I like to drink espresso with caramel and chocolate flavor, what should i buy k plus, k ultra or k max to make espresso with caramel and chocolate flavor ? Thanks brother

Hi, great content on your channel! I would like to know if the K MAX and J MAX handle is magnetic or just the cup? Thanks.

Thank u for this video - it's great & very helpful! I have K Plus, K Pro & now J Max. Partially for my dislike of the magnetic catch cups (i've knocked them off a few times!), I prefer the K Pro. Also i like the sleekness of it. Could u please tell us specifically why u don't prefer the K Pro?

Hi , which model more suitable for both coffe filter v60 and espresso ?

In your article, you mentioned that the Q2 pentagonal also makes a good espresso. What grind setting did you use since the 1zpresso site does not indicate in their grind guide for the Q2?

in Japan they have some sick 1zpresso JPPRO & Z Pro they're like a step up from the flagship Max series (Amazon jp has'em)

Great one Asser!

After watching your very informative video I had to make a choice between the JX and the Q2 grinders. The combination I would like (and many others I suspect) is to have the Heptagonal burrs from the Q2 together with the capacity of the JX. Now that the JX has been discontinued are you likely to review the new J that replaces it.

Hello dear friend! Thank you for such informative information in your videos!! Thanks to you, I chose 1zpresso jx and I am very pleased with her, she makes an excellent fine grinding for Turkish coffee and any grinding, and most importantly everything is very fast, but they say about her that she is very bad at espresso. I now want to buy Saeco Picopresso for espresso and I 'm wondering if I should choose another coffee grinder for this ( jx-pro, j-max, x-pro) what would you recommend?

Hi, I own a Wilfa Uniform, I’m using it for pour overs, aeropress and also moka pot and I am very satisfied with the grinder. Now I would like to also add an espresso machnine to my coffee bar. I am thinking of Flair 58. My question is would the K-Max be a good grinder to pair it with Flair 58? I will still keep the Wilfa for other brewing methods, however I will also use the hand grinder for other methods when travelling. This is why I would prefer the K-Max over J-Max, I am just not sure if the 22,5 microns is to big of a step to dial in the espresso on the Flair 58? Would you recommend J or K-Max for my situation?

Hy , I have K Plus as my first manual grinder and I make daily V60 and Aeropress. Is fantastic! What is yours oppinion about Kinu Simplicity if is worth the purchasse for expresso ?

Which is better keno classic coffee grinder or zpresso k-plus

Hey which one you recommend for Turkish coffee (powder fine)?

I go the Timemore C2 Max grinder on a great Amazon deal. How does it stackup to those? Is it similar due to the similar burrs?

Hi! Tell me, please, which of the presented coffee grinders is suitable for jezve?

Is there any difference between second version of K-Plus than K-Max? Because in my opinion there is no any significant differences.

Thanks for review. What would you say best upgrade from Helor 101 (with filter burrs) just for filter / Aeropress use?

For making pour over in a v60 if choosing between the c40 mk4 and the kmax what would you choose?

Between K-max and Kinu Phoenix which one do you prefer? For manual espresso like Cafflano or Flair and pour over method.

I have already watched this video several times. I think I am going to get the JMax finally.

Did you ever review the cheap 64mm grinder in the background of your df64 blog? Wondered what you thought of it.

which coffee grinder is the most versatile for you, if you use it from a pour over to an espresso?

On the K-Max, What grind settings are typically using for light roasted coffees for v60 and for espresso?

Hi, great video. Would you compare any of the models with the same clicks as the comandante?

I have relatively small hands and ordered a J Max, I think I'll be fine I did check the size and I can grip quite well. Will let you know when it arrives. I started with the Q2, I think it's a really fantastic grinder. I grind for my moka pot in 25 seconds. I hold at a 45 degree angle so my bean feed rate is likely lower but I'm quite strong so I guess that makes up for it? I probably should count the rotations instead of the time. I think maybe I underestimated and even overlooked the K-Max but I intend to use the J Max almost exclusively for Espresso (but we'll see) at least until I can justify an electric grinder. One thing you might want to cover in a future video is that 1ZPresso does say you can use an electronic screwdriver/drill?

I bought JX-Pro several years ago, now I am a little itching for J-Max. I primarily used it for Espresso only.

I’m planning on getting my first lever machine in 2023. What hand grinder would you recommend for dialing in on a lever. I have a Baratza Sette 270 for my Gaggia Classic Pro machine Thanks

can these grinders be stored /carried with the handle off ? I want a new grinder to put in my motorcycle camping kit… currently carry a Zassenhaus Box grinder. Thinking of the K-Max or Chestnut X with folding handle
