The newest addition to our C40 Mk4 Nitro Blade coffee grinder lineup — 'sunset' — continues our homage to the colours of nature.
When you’re surrounded by the beautiful outdoors, the end of the day can be tinged with sadness as the light and colours fade.
But if the conditions and weather allow, then Mother Nature rewards us with one of the best light shows there is: the beautiful hues of sunset.
We wanted to put the joy and sparkle of the evening sky onto our beloved C40 Mk4 Nitro Blade coffee grinder so that we could share it with the world.
Our C40 Mk4 'Sunset' coffee grinder uses our super robust powder coating, is aluminium free, and 100% food safe. World class grind performance. Engineered to last generations. Made in Germany.
The iconic Comandante C40 is a robust, high performance grinder with an advanced and pioneering burr set: Nitro Blade. And the new Mk4 generation just got even better!
Thanks to some smart material science, reworked internals and the addition of a basically unbreakable polymer-glass Bean Jar, the Comandante C40 Mk4 offers improved workflow, weight, and durability.
The burr material and design is the proud result of years of dedicated research and development at Comandante’s onsite coffee lab. Nitro Blade is unique, using a high-alloyed, high-nitrogen stainless steel with a fine martensitic micro-crystal matrix.
Burr Geometry has been optimised to achieve excellent Bean Thruput with a reduced Crank Torque and at the same time deliver a refined Particle Size Distribution for best brewing results.
Weighing in at just over 600g, the C40’s compact size and robust nature means that whether you’re at home or off on an adventure, the world’s best manual grinder is your loyal companion.
The MK4: What’s new
The MK4 is the latest updated version of Comandante’s C40 nitro-blade hand grinder. In fact, the MK4 has been designed with complete backwards compatibility, so all parts are interchangeable with the MK3 model. All these changes make for improved workflow, weight, practicality and durability.
Fans of the MK3 will find a comforting familiarity in the design and performance while enjoying some amazing new features:
- New ‘indestructible’ polymer bean jar is lighter and more durable than the glass one (also included). The polymer jars are consistently weighted and so better to use in brewing competitions. They also boast heat insulation properties so can be used as a cup if you’re brewing coffee on the go!
- Freshly designed axel frame means there is now no chance of beans getting stuck in the engine frame
- Smaller box with improved protection and brand new manual; now completely made from sustainable materials.
Burr
The burr material and design is the proud result of years of dedicated research and development at Comandante®’s onsite coffee lab. Nitro Blade® is unique, using a high-alloyed, high-nitrogen stainless steel with a fine martensitic micro-crystal matrix.
Burr Geometry has been optimised to achieve excellent Bean Thruput with a reduced Crank Torque and at the same time deliver a refined Particle Size Distribution for best brewing results.
Grind adjustment
Comandante click system gives you full control for any brewing method and locks your preferred grind setting into place, helping you get the very best out of your roasted coffee and repeat the results again and again. This world class grind performance has made Nitro Blade the weapon of choice for true coffee enthusiasts around the globe, from home baristas to World Brewers Cup champions.
Design
Stainless steel is the right choice to build a robust and food safe coffee grinder. That is why not only the burr is made of stainless steel, but also the body, axle, crank and micro ball bearings. Comandante products are aluminium free.
Where polymers can be used to improve performance, Comandante uses BPA-free high-performance polymers that meet the strictest food-safety standards. These materials are engineered to endure years of heavy use.
Every C40 MK4 comes with one brown glass Bean Jar and one clear polymer-glass Bean Jar. Both are super easy to clean and hold around 40g of roasted coffee beans.
