Since 2021, KINGrinder has proven that you don't need a massive budget for exceptional grind consistency. The Taiwan-based brand offers manual coffee grinders that rival the particle uniformity of high-end brands at a significantly lower cost. By prioritising high-quality stainless steel burr sets and a stable grinding experience over unnecessary frills, KINGrinder has achieved cult status among brewers worldwide. It is no secret that we are big advocates of manual grinding here at Cape Coffee Beans, so we are incredibly excited to bring these game-changing, budget-friendly coffee tools to South Africa as the official KINGrinder distributor.

The K6 is KINGrinder's flagship, all-round performer. It is capable of producing fine grinds for espresso, while delivering vibrant clarity for filter or pour-over brews. Inside its robust aluminium alloy body is a set of 48mm heptagonal stainless steel burrs, which are easily adjusted using the numbered external collar. With 16-micron gaps between clicks and 60 clicks per revolution, the K6 offers an ultra-fine level of control with a total of 240 grind settings. This allows you to make micro-adjustments to fix a fast espresso shot, or subtly tweak your V60 grind profile to nail your target extraction.

The KINGrinder K6 easily disassembles for tool-free cleaning and features an integrated, non-slip silicone grip. The burrs are mounted to a dual-bearing drive shaft to provide a stable grinding experience, whether you are tackling dense, lightly roasted beans or medium-to-dark roasts (though do bear in mind that grinding for espresso by hand can be a humbling experience, no matter the grinder). The K6 handles a generous amount of coffee with a secure, screw-in catch cup that comfortably holds 30g, reducing the need for multiple grinding sessions. The K6 offers coffee enthusiasts lasting performance for both home and travel brewing.
