It's built around Timemore's S2C-042-EI burr set and adjusts in 0.025mm steps, so it'll handle everything from a properly dialled-in espresso to a coarse French press grind. All of that happens at the press of a button rather than a few hundred turns of a handle. Whether you're stepping up from a hand grinder, short on counter space or after a proper grind on holiday, at the office or in a tent, it's a seriously capable bit of kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart of the Whirly is its S2C-042-EI burr set, 5-axis CNC machined from SUS420 stainless steel and hardened to 58 HRC. Timemore has optimised these burrs for espresso, and they're equally at home grinding for moka pot, pour over and French press. In the cup, Timemore promises a balanced, rounded profile with lasting sweetness: syrupy, textured shots and filter brews with plenty of body. With 0.025mm between each step, you've got the fine control you need to chase small changes in shot time or extraction without overshooting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lidless swivel hopper twists up and clicks into place. It guides beans in and cuts down on popcorning (beans bouncing about above the burrs) and retention (grounds left behind in the grinder). The catch cup holds up to 45g of grounds, and if you'd rather skip the cup, it grinds straight into a 58mm portafilter. The 7.4Wh battery charges over USB-C in around three hours and is rated for up to 20 espresso doses or 35 pour over doses per charge. Built-in protection reverses the burrs to clear jams, monitors for overheating and stops automatically once grinding is done.

Timemore designed the S2C-042-EI burrs with espresso as the priority, and the 0.025mm adjustment steps give you enough resolution to dial in shot times properly. Timemore's suggested espresso range is 0.1 to 0.7 on the dial, and the grinder doses straight into a 58mm portafilter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I grind directly into my portafilter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, as long as it's a 58mm portafilter, which is the standard size on commercial-style and many prosumer espresso machines. If your machine uses a smaller basket, such as 54mm, grind into the included catch cup and transfer from there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many coffees will I get from one charge?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTimemore rates the 7.4Wh battery at up to 20 espresso doses of 20g, or 35 pour over doses of 15g, per charge. A full recharge over USB-C takes about three hours. Real-world figures will vary with grind size, roast level and bean density.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does the Whirly 01S take to grind a dose?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTimemore quotes around 90 seconds for an 18g espresso dose and around 30 seconds for a 15g pour over dose, based on testing with pre-production units. Finer settings ask more of the burrs, so espresso will always be the slowest job it does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat grind setting should I use for pour over?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTimemore suggests 1.7 to 2.1 for pour over, 2.3 to 2.7 for a French press such as the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/timemore-u-french-press-cafetiere\"\u003eTimemore U French Press\u003c\/a\u003e, 0.6 to 0.8 for moka pot and 0.1 to 0.7 for espresso. Treat these as starting points and adjust to taste: if your V60 tastes sour and thin, go finer; if it's bitter and drying, go coarser.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much coffee does the Whirly 01S hold?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe catch cup takes up to 45g of ground coffee, which is enough for a large pour over or two double shots. The lidless swivel hopper is built for single dosing, so you weigh out each dose and grind it fresh rather than storing beans in the grinder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use the Whirly 01S for lighter roasts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, though Timemore recommends medium to dark roasts for these burrs. The S2C-042-EI is tuned for balanced, round flavours with lasting sweetness, so it suits chocolatey espresso and sweeter filter coffees particularly well. You can still grind lighter roasts with it; just expect a cup that leans towards body and sweetness rather than maximum clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the Whirly 01S compare to a manual grinder?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Whirly 01S uses the same conical burr approach you'd find in a good hand grinder, but it replaces the cranking with a 60W motor. That makes a real difference for espresso, where hand grinding a fine dose is hard work. The trade-offs are a little extra weight at 760g and needing to keep the battery charged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat happens if the grinder jams?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Whirly 01S automatically stops and reverses the burrs to clear a jam. It also monitors itself for overheating and powers down once grinding is complete, so you don't need to stand over it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Whirly 01S suitable for travel?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's built for it. At 760g and 72mm x 190mm, with a lidless hopper and USB-C charging, it packs easily into a bag and charges from a standard USB-C cable.
