About Coffee Hit Ltd:

I started Coffee Hit in 2008, when I was always buying cool coffee gear from USA and Australia as it was not availble in the UK. I wanted great coffee for my customers and at home!
I wanted to help cafes and people make great coffee at home. I wanted to show people it didnt need to be expensive and great coffee can be fun and simple.

But if your like me you like to geek out a bit and we also have some really cool coffee brewing gear for my fellow coffee geeks.

We have the solutions for you to make great coffee at home or in the cafe.

Enjoy!
Paul, Owner

“When I decided to get a manual coffee grinder, I started with a budget of around £100 – As I kept doing more and more research, the same 3-4 grinders kept getting mentioned as being at the top of the class. Whilst I’ve been told that, out of the very top grinders, they will all perform similarly (especially for pour over) – It comes down to the quality of the materials, ease of use etc. Thankfully, CoffeeHit sells two of the grinders I was looking at. When spending this amount of money I want a reputable place that I can trust! The Comandante has always stood out to me as a great looking grinder – The wood veneer body and solid oak handle top always struck me as high quality. And once it arrived, I was really impressed by every aspect of the packaging and contents of the box – Comandante do claim that each grinder has been calibrated and individually packed by hand. And they’re not lying! The grinder has been a joy to use – Finding true zero has been a very easy process, you can even do this and change the grind size whilst beans have been loaded into the chamber. It takes me around 35 seconds for 30 grams on a fine grind size (20) which is quicker than the kettle takes to boil. The glass jar has had no problems with static & the ground beans sticking. I also purchased a Pallo brush to clean the chamber and burr grinder which works great. Disassembling and re assembling everything for cleaning is very straight forward. Regarding the consistency of the grind – It has been very uniform, regardless of grind size – This is all very anecdotal though as I don’t have any experience with other grinders. I'm only on my 3rd bag of coffee, but I see this maintaining its quality for a long time to come.”

“I love the Comandante C40. This was my 2nd which I bought in case I break the first. The grinder produces very even grind size and is easier to turn than my Porlex grinder. It looks great too. The only downside is the price but it is beautifully made.”

“I’m really impressed with the Comandante grinder. I worked in the Melbourne specialty coffee industry for years & can safely say this is the most tweakable, consistent hand grinder I’ve ever used. If you want better brews at home or on tour this a product worth looking into. Thanks to 'Coffee Hit' for a well packaged swift delive”

“It is an excellent choice amongst available coffee grinders. Absolutely spot on in terms of consistency of grinding, very well made and it looks stunning! Simple but classy... and well worth the money. I actually prefer old style manual grinders to electric ones and if you share a similar opinion, look no further!”
