Saint Anthony Industries Millwright Hand Grinder
Overview
Take quality grinding into your own hands with the Saint Anthony Industries Millwright Hand Grinder. A premium take on a portable grinder, the Millwright offers precision 48mm titanium-coated steel burrs, a solid aluminum body, and a relatively large handle that offers excellent leverage to power through beans at any grind setting. Grind adjustments are managed with a fine stepped knob set into the bottom burr, while burrs are stabilized during grinding with two shaft bearings to prevent wobble. Each Millwright grinder features a handmade wood handle and tooled leather storage sleeve.
