Whether you're brewing at home, in the office, or on your next adventure, the Chestnut C5 offers smooth, consistent grinding and outstanding flavour in every cup.

Precision Grinding with Upgraded S2C Burr Technology

At the heart of the Timemore Chestnut C5 are the upgraded 42mm S2C-042-III stainless steel conical burrs, engineered to deliver faster grinding, greater consistency, and exceptional flavour clarity.

Timemore's innovative Spike-to-Cut (S2C) burr geometry pre-breaks coffee beans before grinding, reducing fines and creating a more uniform particle size for cleaner, sweeter extractions.

Benefits of the S2C Burr Set

• Faster and smoother grinding
• Excellent grind consistency
• Cleaner extractions with reduced fines
• Improved sweetness and flavour clarity
• Uniform particle distribution across manual brewing methods

Perfect for:

• Pour-over coffee
• AeroPress
• Filter coffee
• French press
• Moka pot
• Cold brew

Designed for Manual Brewing

The Timemore Chestnut C5 features a precise stepped adjustment system that makes it easy to switch between different manual brewing methods.

Its 31-micron click adjustment provides excellent control across a wide range of brew styles, allowing you to quickly find the ideal grind size for your favourite coffee.

Grind Adjustment Features

• 31-micron stepped adjustment
• Easy to adjust between brewing methods
• Consistent grind settings
• Smooth and repeatable operation
• Ideal for manual brewing and everyday coffee preparation

From delicate pour-over brews to rich moka pot coffee, the C5 delivers reliable and repeatable grind quality every time.

C5 vs C5 ESP – What's the Difference?

Both the Timemore Chestnut C5 and Chestnut C5 ESP use the same premium 42mm S2C-042-III stainless steel conical burrs, producing outstanding grind quality, speed, and consistency.

The key difference is the grind adjustment mechanism.

The Chestnut C5 features 31-micron adjustment steps, making it the ideal choice for filter coffee, pour-over, AeroPress, French press, and moka pot brewing.

The Chestnut C5 ESP uses 15-micron adjustment steps, providing twice the adjustment precision for espresso. These finer increments make it much easier to dial in espresso shots while still performing exceptionally well for manual brewing.

Why Choose the Chestnut C5?

• Optimised for filter coffee and manual brewing
• Same premium S2C burrs as the C5 ESP
• Fast, smooth, and consistent grinding
• Excellent value for coffee lovers who don't regularly brew espresso
• Compact, lightweight, and easy to travel with
