Turin H40 V2 Hand Coffee Grinder

The Turin H40 V2 combines hand grinding and espresso preparation in one compact tool. A 40mm stainless-steel conical burr handles the grinding, while the magnetic catch cup can also be used as a 58mm dosing cup or fitted with the included blind-shaker plunger. It suits a quiet home coffee routine, a second coffee or a travel setup where you want fresh grounds without charging another device.

Adjustment outside the grinder

The external adjustment keeps grind changes accessible without taking apart the catch-cup assembly. Record a useful espresso or filter setting as a starting point, then refine it for the beans, dose and brewer. A hand grinder still needs careful dialing in: espresso usually demands a finer setting and more cranking effort than coarser brewed coffee.

A catch cup that helps with puck preparation

Magnets hold the cup beneath the grinder during use. Remove it to transfer grounds, or fit the blind-shaker plunger for the intended shaking workflow. The removable base helps release the grounds into a compatible basket. The 58mm cup is intended for that nominal basket format; smaller baskets may need a separate transfer funnel, and accessory tolerances vary.

Grip, bearings and hand effort

An aluminum body and textured sleeve provide a firm grip. The crank uses a walnut knob, with four bearings across the handle and axle assembly. This supports the mechanism, but it does not eliminate the effort required to grind dense light-roasted beans finely. If you prepare several espressos in succession or have limited grip strength, an electric grinder may be more comfortable.

A realistic travel choice

The grinder body is approximately 62 × 62 × 185mm, excluding the crank, and weighs around 875g. It is portable, but more substantial than an ultralight travel grinder. The roughly 30g capacity depends on bean density; larger filter doses may require two fills. A major benefit is that the grinder itself needs no electrical supply or battery.

Keeping the mechanism clean

Remove loose coffee from the cup and brush the burr area as directed in the guide. Keep the bearings and grinding mechanism dry, and take care not to lose the small components during disassembly. Follow the calibration procedure when establishing the zero reference; do not force the crank with burrs pressed together.

Frequently asked questions

Does it need charging?

No. All grinding power comes from the hand crank.

Can it grind espresso?

Yes. Expect more effort and time at espresso settings than for a coarser filter dose. Use a consistent dose and adjust according to flow and taste.

Is the blind-shaker part included?

Yes. The current package includes the plunger and removable-base dosing cup.

What do the open-box and preorder options mean?

Choose the exact condition and availability label in the selector. An open-box unit is a different purchase condition from a new in-stock unit; a preorder has a later fulfillment window.
