Orphan Espresso Fixie Hand Grinder
$295.00
The central design challenge for creating the Fixie Manual Coffee Grinder was the reduction of weight while maintaining the same precision Orphan Espresso is known for. Including the 140 gram steel conical grinding burr set, the Fixie weighs in at only 330 grams total. It measures 196 mm (6.5 inches) tall, when the grounds jar is in place.
The concept Orphan Espresso followed is that when we travel we take only one coffee brewer with us - whether an Aeropress, a dripper, a small French Press or a Moka Pot, therefore we need only one grind setting - the one that matches the brewer. And, like a Fixed Gear Bike, the result is a Fixed Grind Coffee Grinder. All of the weight, and mechanical complications of a universally adjustable coffee grinder are left behind...
The Fixie represents an absolute simplification of the manual coffee grinder without sacrificing function, strength or durability. The single fill grounds cup capacity (30 grams) of the Fixie enables a 500 ml maximum brew - enough for 2 cups of coffee.
