Uncompromised Capacity: Timemore Chestnut C3S Pro Max

The Timemore Chestnut C3S Pro Max is the ultimate solution for coffee lovers who refuse to compromise on grind quality or batch size. Featuring a larger 30-35g capacity and a rugged all-metal build, this grinder is designed to power your morning ritual, whether you’re brewing for yourself or a group.

What makes the “S Pro Max” different?

The naming convention of Timemore is precise: “S” means all-metal internals (no plastic), “Pro” features the patented foldable handle, and “Max” indicates the extended body for higher bean capacity.

Key Features

• S2C 660 “Spike-to-Cut” Burrs: Derived from the flagship Chestnut X, these 38mm stainless steel burrs pre-cut the beans before grinding. This dual-stage action results in exceptional particle uniformity and increased sweetness in the cup.
• Expanded 30g+ Capacity: The elongated body comfortably holds 30-35g of coffee—ideal for larger V60 brews, Chemex, or a full French Press.
• Zero Plastic Construction: The C3S Pro Max replaces the plastic support frames of the standard C3 with a CNC-cut Aluminum Alloy unibody for perfect burr alignment and lifetime durability.
• Patented Folding Handle: The spring-assisted “Pro” handle folds down flush against the body. This reduces its footprint for travel and prevents the grinder from being knocked over on your counter.
• Tactile Diamond Texture: The signature knurled body provides a secure, non-slip grip, making the grinding process smooth and effortless even with denser, light-roasted beans.

Technical Specifications

Professional Performance, Portable Design

By utilizing a dual-bearing stabilization system, the C3S Pro Max eliminates “burr wobble,” ensuring your grind stays consistent from the first bean to the last. While it is capable of espresso grinding, it shines in the medium-coarse range (15-28 clicks), where it highlights the clarity and floral notes of specialty coffees.
