Comandante C40 Lab Series Hand Grinder – Tigershark

Lab Series

Burrs are usually treated like commodity items functional and standardized. They’re tucked away inside the grinder, rarely celebrated, seldom questioned. But what if the burr geometry held the key to unlocking hidden taste potential, something roast curves or brew methods can’t fully reveal?
For over a decade, Comandante founder Bernd Braune has been working on innovative concepts for conical burr sets. At our Bavarian Burr Lab, our engineers have been pushing the boundaries of machining technology and developing pioneering tooling to achieve them.
Lab Series gives you more freedom to experiment and explore flavor possibilities. Global brewing styles and taste preferences are subjective and, like coffee itself, wonderfully diverse. Embrace this diversity, confidently explore what tastes best to you, and enjoy not just the result, but also the journey getting there.

Why Choose the Tigershark?

The Tigershark burr geometry delivers a uniquely clean and balanced particle profile, helping unlock the full flavour potential of light, complex or high density coffees. Its stable mechanics and premium materials provide exceptional control and consistency, making it ideal for both daily brewing and high performance coffee preparation while travelling. Inspired by the precision and force of a tiger shark’s bite, this unique dual row blade system cuts cleanly through semi elastic, high density materials, from Nordic roasts to sturdy grains. It doesn’t just crush, it slices, fractures and refines with incredible efficiency.

Nitro Blade Burr Set

The Nitro Blade burr set is the ultimate in performance. The burrs cut through coffee beans to deliver a grind that is extremely precise and very uniform, whilst leaving the least amount of fines. Both ring and core are cut out of a solid block of high-alloyed, high-nitrogen stainless steel, making the Nitro Blade sharp and strong, with excellent edge retention and wear resistance. Nitro Blade burrs are also non-corrosive and deliver excellent cut performance.
