The Millwright Hand Grinder

The Ritual of Grinding, Perfected

There is a unique satisfaction in the hands-on ritual of preparing coffee, and no step is more fundamental than the grind. We endorse the Millwright from Saint Anthony Industries because it honors this process with a level of mechanical precision that transforms the simple act of grinding into a truly perfect foundation for brewing. It is a tool engineered from the ground up to eliminate the frustrating inconsistency of lesser grinders, ensuring that the user's direct labor produces a remarkably uniform grind, every single time.

An Uncompromising System for Uniformity

The heart of the Millwright is its exceptionally stable internal system. A set of dual precision shaft bearings holds the axle in perfect alignment within a single, solid piece of aluminum machined to aeronautic tolerances. This rigid, zero-flex environment allows the massive 48mm titanium-coated Italian burr-set to operate without any burr wobble. This stability is the key to producing incredibly consistent particle size and minimizing "fines" - the coffee dust that creates muddy, bitter flavors. The result is a cleaner, sweeter, and more transparent cup, regardless of your chosen brew method.

Crafted for a Lifetime of Brewing

The Millwright is a tool you feel a connection with from the first touch. Its substantial 550-gram weight feels purposeful, and the grinding action is remarkably smooth and efficient, a testament to the quality of the bearings and the leverage of the handle. With a 28-gram capacity, it is perfectly sized for a generous single serving. Every detail, from the comfortable wooden knob to the engraved leather sleeve for travel, speaks to its quality. This is not merely a grinder; it is a beautifully crafted instrument designed to provide a lifetime of perfectly ground coffee, wherever you choose to brew.
