Nice review, thanks! I’d like you to test a flat burr hand grinder and compare it with K-Ultra. Flat burr hand grinder can be one of those 2: CafeSing Orca or Pietro.
Jaaaack, have you heard of the Mischief M40? Is kind of a chinese C40, but costing only 50-70usd and comes with red click by default. I have one and it's great. Not sure if you need another grinder hahahah, but surely would be nice to see a comparison with the K6, and other grinders.
@@mycoffeeshow111 I understand completely! And ALL their products are ripoffs. To be honest I also agree, I only have one because here in Brazil, our tax system is, well, a bit weird. A C40 costs at least 640usd converting. (yea, weird right?).
Have you tried brewing in a regular v60. I have some timemore brewers b75 and crystal eye and found the regular cheap plastic v60 gives a nice bright coffee. Not sure if the glass or ceramic v60s will be the same but ill probably get one to try since I'm not a fan of plastic plus heat!.
@@mycoffeeshow111 I don't care about overpriced fads I just want good coffee. V60 is tried and true. It's the classic for a reason. If you haven't compare a v60 with your orea. You may prefer the v60!
Hmmm, I would say the opposite, K Ultra often seems to bring up more acidic juicy flavours while C60 is more balanced. At least that’s what I experienced
@@ExtractionFaction hand grinding for espresso can be tricky, especially if you want to dial in to the specific time of extraction. I am not giving up though. Maybe if I sell C60 I will get something new.
I have the K ultra and I like it. But I heard that Comandante much better for the turkish style thanks to some floating burrs technology that they use.
I think that is Comandante's claim, Nitro burrs that never dull. Stainless steel burrs on the other hand might only last for 100-200 kilograms of coffee..
Hello thanks again for your vidéos. I had the j max and i sold it. Could you give me an advice please for only Espresso with my gaggia. Do i take the new 1zpresso j ultra or the eureka mignon zéro please. I just want to drink good Espresso until the new eureka Oro single dose plus or the new eureka Techno but they will be available for summer but i think it s what i need they look so good.
Thx for watching. Why did you sell JMax anyway? J Ultra, although I haven’t had it, will be very similar in flavour profile to J Max. Maybe try something different. Kinu Phoenix if you want hand grinder or DF54 if you are after cheap electric grinder.
Thank you, i loves m'y jmax but i m a little bit maniacal and there was some scratches on my grinder ans i saw little improves on the ultra @@mycoffeeshow111
I’m not sure I’ve seen you this … …over the top. Totally fun. For me, given the taste differences you describe (minimal), the UX differences (K-MAX external adjustment FTW) and the price difference (maximal): The K-MAX would be my winner. And that’s the choice I essentially made almost 2 years ago. Between the J-MAX and Comandante C40. Cheaper, better UX with the external adjustment, smaller changes per click, included carrying case, magnetic catch cup, etc, all made the J-MAX the far better choice for me at that time. My only “buyer’s remorse” was minor: no one quotes recipes with “clicks-on-a-J-MAX”. But they still do with the Comandante. Though, I am seeing it less and less…
@@Sportfanaat I remember that C60 narrowly won that comparison. Are you planning to buy one? I sold my since. Great tool but a bit too expensive to keep.
@@mycoffeeshow111 The C60 is very nice, but way too expensive. I don’t know too buy, the C40 or the K-ultra. I like natrual and anaerobic coffee. I think the zp6 fits better with washed coffee.
@@Sportfanaat I have never tried ZP6 but I waa always very happy with C40 and K Ultra. K Ultra brings up more fruity flavours and it is more user friendly hence I still have it
@@mycoffeeshow111 haha I have one myself! :p I really like it for medium to dark roasts and milk drinks. Thinking of adding a Max2 or L01 for light roasts. So you prefer the Max2?
Awesome video like always. I’ve seen tons and tons of reviews on the other comandante’s and I see how often people say how beautiful they are. I’ve even seen someone comparing a comandante with Kinu Classic and they was saying how good looking the comandante is and that the Kinu was for the most part ugly looking compared to the comandante. I might be the only one who prefers the look of the Kinu Classic than any other grinder out there. Love the stainless steel look and of course the build quality is outstanding, so I get the best of both worlds. I love the comandante just not next to my Kinu Classic. The C60 is the best comandante so far, just hate the pink catch cup, I on now it does come with another one though. Thank you again on the video.
I bought the K ultra and I’m not disappointed yet.
One of the best multi purpose hand grinders I have tested.
Nice review, thanks! I’d like you to test a flat burr hand grinder and compare it with K-Ultra. Flat burr hand grinder can be one of those 2: CafeSing Orca or Pietro.
Flat burrs aren't necessarily better. I've been digging my cheap conical hand grinders more than flats lately for pour over anyway.
The problem with those grinders is that they require more effort to grind so by the end of the video I would be even more pissed off 😛

Hi, yes I heard about it. Apparently is very good. I am just not sure if I should promote a company that simply copy other products.

@@tupinikeebs 640?!!! Maybe I should start smuggling C40s over there -should be a good business.
@@mycoffeeshow111 please do hahahahaha

I get decent results with Orea and easy to find right settings. I should have new Orea V4 soon as well. V60 is soo last year 😛

The main problem of K ultra is the decreasing of acidity. As a result, some fruity beans perform better with Comandante.
Hmmm, I would say the opposite, K Ultra often seems to bring up more acidic juicy flavours while C60 is more balanced. At least that’s what I experienced
I would love to see the 1Zpresso K Ultra compared with the X Pro/ultra.. They have similar burr geometry with 40mm vs. 48mm burrs.
Great idea indeed.
I understand if you don't want to keep hand grinding! There are enough other vids about hand grinders around the tube anyway. Cheers!

Possibly. Never brewed turkish myself, maybe I should try.
喜歡1Z K-Ultra！
還在尋找等待新出一支1Z改款讓歸零動作能像泰摩栗子X-lite這麽簡單就更完美了。
You might be right here but I can’t say for sure 😛
The Comandante would be worth the price, only if it lasts forever.
It well might be. Seems very solid.
I think that is Comandante's claim, Nitro burrs that never dull. Stainless steel burrs on the other hand might only last for 100-200 kilograms of coffee..
@@ExtractionFaction tbh I can’t see myself hand grinding 200kg of coffee. Drinking that much yes, hand grinding not likely.

C60 cup has an obvious tiger tail so it has more body. Does it happen every time with c60 or just this cup in test?
This can only be said when I compare cups from different grinders which I don’t do that often.
Believe it or not, rdt actually improves extraction in tests
That is what JH says. I was even planning to record a video about it.
I’m not sure I’ve seen you this …

Hahaha. I tell you a secret. I started recording with taste test. By the end of which I was flying high on caffeine and then did the introduction 😁
5:49 is that the first or the second cup?

So do you need RDT with K Ultra like you do with C60?
Maybe at the very beginning but otherwise less static than with C60.
If you decide to sell your C60, please let me know😊
Long gone unfortunately but I regret it now, after playing with Mazzer Omega X
Is k ultra provide high body and sweetness?
@@AHMED-ie7rw short answer - it doesn’t. It is med -light body and more fruity sourness in the cup.
Ваш обзор помог мне сделать выбор! Спасибо! Приобрел k-ultra. А comandante c40 немного переоценена по моему мнению)
Not sure what it means but you might be right.
@mycoffeeshow111 he bought k-ultra because of you. Thank you. He thinks that the c40 is slightly overpriced.
@@АлександрКозлов-з6д thx for the info!
Ну и как не разочаровались с выбором? Тоже не могу принять решение.
MC5 has gone? 😢
I’m selling it. I still have it, if you are interested. Potential buyer I found seems to be wasting my time.
@@mycoffeeshow111 haha I have one myself! :p I really like it for medium to dark roasts and milk drinks. Thinking of adding a Max2 or L01 for light roasts. So you prefer the Max2?
@@richardshaw7449 after some initial hesitations, I have to say that Max is perfect for the coffee that I enjoy.
do c3 vs q air😎😎
That should be a good one.
Hi,I’m looking for dark espresso hand grinder,Should I go for k Ultra or J Ultra.Thanks
@@IvyUTwo hi, I think J grinder would be better for dark roast.

As for pink cup, well you also get a clear one plus you can buy other colours aa well.
@@mycoffeeshow111 the clear would be sweet.
The price of C60 is not acceptable… no matter how good is the burrs. This is totally overpriced for a hand grinder.
@@mtpastor4546 agree, very expensive. But still, each batch they produce disappears very fast so there are plenty of people willing to pay.
q air vs k6😎😎😎
K6 would eat it for breakfast
Can't justify the $350 price difference. K ultra it is.
I do agree here.
Overpriced! will stick with ultra,
@@mopikozz you should be happy with K Ultra for sure.
Vậy mà cũng so sánh, ấu trĩ
@@flashlinh not sure what it means but thank you for your comment!
Comandante way behind in innovation… just better materials and a bigger burr shows the lack of imagination
@@alarcilam maybe they are playing safe or maybe they do have a master plan that we just can’t see.
