FEATURES

Originally launched in 2015 alongside the C40 Mk3, the Nitro Blade® burr set quickly earned its reputation as the gold standard as it became the grinder of choice for major brew competition champions.

Reimagining conical burrs in the context of a manual grinder, the Nitro Blade is designed to provide superb grind quality, smooth torque, comfortable ergonomics, clean particle distribution—and ultimately, absolute taste clarity.

The coating-free edge and blade structure, coupled with the NITRO REX® steel’s extraordinary toughness and extremely high edge retention capabilities, ensures a lifetime of performance.

Optimized burr geometry delivers unparalleled precision in grind particle size distribution.

Features a 'Stone Washed' stainless steel body and lacquered black oak knob; a rugged finish that echoes the obsessive attention given to every aspect of the grinder's manufacturing and performance.

Full range of grind size adjustments, from turkish to cold brew.

Designed and built for ultimate performance and ergonomics, including the reworked internal engine frame featuring Comandante's high-performance QTP® techno-polymer.

USE & CARE

Regular cleaning will keep your grinder running smoothly and tasting fresh. Burrs and inner mechanism should not be wet, and can be cleaned with a brush or pressurized air can. Glass jars may be cleaned with soap and water, and the wooden veneer should be kept dry, but can be wiped with a damp cloth and cared for as you would any wood item.

Grind Settings

While the perfect grind setting of course varies from coffee to coffee, here are some helpful starting points for your new Comandante grinder:

- 5–10 Clicks for Turkish.
- 10–15 Clicks for Espresso.
- 15–20 Clicks for a Bialetti or stovetop moka pot.
- 22–32 Clicks for a pour over filter coffee (depending on dose and brewer).
- 25–30 Clicks for Cupping and French Press.
- 30–35 Clicks for Cold Brew.
Aeropress? Well, that depends on your recipe!
