Austro-Hungarian Coffee Grinder Restoration - From Flea Market Find to Kitchen Treasure
ฝัง

- In this video, I restore a coffee grinder produced between 1867 and 1918.
I bought this time-forgotten and rusty antique grinder at a nearby flea market. When I saw this piece, I knew I had to rescue/restore it.
The Old Coffee Grinder was in disrepair when I received it. The old finish was almost gone, cracked, rusted, and missing elements.
The restoration process was challenging but rewarding.
If you want to learn more about antique coffee grinders or their restoration, I encourage you to watch this video.
More about the restoration process:
As mentioned above, I purchased this coffee grinder at a giant flea market for about $60.
The grinder restoration process took about a week (8-10 hours daily).
I decided to keep all the original parts and not intervene too much because this piece aimed to get an antique look while keeping the wear marks to confirm the authenticity. I was impressed to discover that I am not the first to have worked on this machine made during the Austro-Hungarian Empire (written on it - Oesterreich Ungarische Industrie).
The video shows how someone with an excellent craftsmanship gift repaired the cracks from the top part. I had only to cover it, and his technique made me want to try it one day.
After disassembly, I cleaned the large rusted parts with a laser. I scoured the rusted parts with a 2000-watt laser. It was satisfactory, and everything went quickly. If you want to learn more about this machine, www.sfxlyxc.com/?aff=2198
We cleaned the smaller parts with the sandblaster because it was more convenient and accessible.
I painted the significant parts with transparent red and hot burnished all the features that didn't need painting.
Then, I had to build a new drawer and stand. I used bamboo wood for both, which I coated with wood oil.
I hope I caught everything, but if you have any questions, feel free to comment, and I'll get back to you!
Cheers! Johnny.

Hi folks! Here is my newest restoration project. This is another beautiful Flea Market find, and I'm so happy about how it turned out. I hope you will like it too! Thank you for watching and for your support! Johnny
Suggestion: next time you have to hammer on a threaded part put the nut back on and you won't damage the threads
Was not expecting the color after the oven! Super nice color!
I'm glad you like it! 👍

Awesome color. Such a nice change from fire engine red I see so many restorers do

I also liked that you used bamboo for the tray and base, I've always liked how that looked.

Thank you!
Красивый бордовый цвет 👍
This is a beautiful restoration.
Thank you!
Very nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing work!
Thank you! 🙂
Mrs Olson Must have thrown this out in her potting shed when she discovered Folgers, and it sat there quietly rusting all these years 😅
[ Reference to a character in an old Folgers Coffee commercial of the 70's , 80's ]
Beautiful.
Thank you!
An amazing end result. I don't like coffee myself but I love old coffee grinders a lot.
Thank you! I also quit drinking coffee a while ago, but these items are so beautiful.
Beautiful restoration job you did on the Austro-Hungarian coffee grinder. It looks much better (almost like new) and it works like a charm too. Excellent work I must say.
Thank you so much!
Perfect job, expertly done👍
Thank you! 🙂
Nicely done. Love the deep red powder coat. 👍
Thank you! 🙂
I really liked this !! I love the color and the brass and gold !! It looks AMAZING !! I also like the natural wood it all goes together very well and it works wonderful !!
Thank you so much!!
That is stunning! Something I would use in my house! Our electric grinder doesn't work this good.
Love the colors. Nice work!
Glad you like them!
У Вас золотые руки. Вы молодец!
Super magnifique toujours un travail minutieux bravo merci
I grew up with this coffee grinder!!
Laser is my 💯 favorite rust remover. Next is electrolysis. 😊
Extra points for the cat. Have you tried dragging the magnet through the vibrating polisher while it’s running? Keep up the excellent videos thanks. 👊
I must say you did a really nice job on the restoration,I especially liked the color you picked and the trim color, That laser tool is awesome!! if I may make one criticism, I didnt like the inside of the drawer, fine coffee grinds can get into those spaces between the sides and bottom and will eventually cause the wood to rot,Perhaps make a tin liner? but all in all it's awesome and I subscribed to your chanel!
Thank you very much!
A lovely find and beautifully restored. The colour scheme is fantastic and it's good to see something like this restored to working order
Quedo hermoso. Me encantó el color que elegiste. Saludos desde Valdivia al sur de Chile 🇨🇱
Grand-tastic ! Aesthetics says smaller knob later on, but D-dang! nice
Thank you
Very good job
Thank you! 🙂
Me fascina ver su extraordinario trabajo, pero estoy totalmente impresionada con el láser.😲😲
Bravo bro :)
Merci
Beautiful restoration 👍👍 You did a great work 😄😄
Linda reforma
That burgundy is the right color for that coffee grinder! BTW what's the real time for removing the rust using that laser?
Cheers!
For this item, it took me about 20- 30 minutes
I would love a list of tools that use regularly with this type of work.
Какая красота! ❤❤❤❤
It looks great and you did a wonderful job restoring it as well!!!!
I enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
Класс 😊❤
Amazing restoration however the bamboo box you made truly damaged the look
I don’t think it was terrible…but a walnut box would look sooo much better!
When you do one, you can make it from any kind of material that you want.
У моей бабушки была похожая кофемолка. Куда то делась, к сожалению.
Мне хочется, чтобы вы не отреставрировали вещь, а изготовили её, своими руками. Это возможно? Я уверен, что для такого мастера это просто.
Stunning! I’d like to place an order for 1 pound of fresh ground coffee please? ♥️♥️♥️
🥰
Big deal. I could do that. ... Well, except for the laser, the sandblasting, the metal repair, the powder coating, the blueing, the woodwork, the filing, the remembering where all the parts go, and the lettering. The incredible amount of know-how, I almost forgot. Oh, and the cat flyby. 🥴
Seriously, Johnny, you do beautiful things when you start from nothing at all!!! 🎉🙏🙌
Thank you so much! 🙂
don't skip the laser cleaning so fast! it is fun to watch
Oki 🙂
Stunning, from start to end! Do you sell any of these pieces???
No, sorry, I try to keep them, and in one day, maybe I'll organise a charity auction.
Very nice job! What was the white coating you used for the interior of the coffee grinder?
Thank you and Cheers from Oregon!
That was enamel 🙂
Great restoration, question tho, can't u laser the rust away from smaller parts?
Thank you! I can, but I prefer the sandblaster. The smaller the parts, the hotter they get while using the laser.
👍👍❣
@rustyshadesrestoration
Possibly a stupid question but compared to sandblasting, has the surface the same Level of cleanness?
Sandblasting seems cleaner to me or is it just the different surface appearance?
Not a stupid question at all. The sandblasting can be cleaner because the residue doesn't stay on the surface; it is blasted away, while the laser doesn't work the same.

Thanks for answering 👍🏼
👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏🥃🥃🥃
Początek filmu mnie zastanowił gdzie nie używasz czegoś do penetracji korozji i ułatwienia odkręcanie, ale do momentu gdzie czyścisz laserem wydaje się wszystko ok ale... . Zastanawia mnie dlaczego nie naprawiłeś pękniętego mocowania koła zębatego i mocno zużytego wałka? Pominąłeś także wstawienie tulejki do korby.
Awesome job! :) Please give me the name and type of your laser. I want it! :)
Nice! It is a BLC-2000w. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
Sorry but the googly eyes made me laugh 😂
😄
😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Отреставрированная вещь прослужит очень долго. Но для человека всё хорошее обязательно кончается. Так уж подло устроена жизнь.
Slgo contra WD40?
Any day you get to use a powerful laser is a good day.
