Gear of the Week | Coffee grinder TIMEMORE Slim Plus

But if you value real aroma in the winter room or in the van, you don't need a 250-euro luxury grinder. Let me introduce you to the TIMEMORE Slim Plus: a hand grinder that scores highly in terms of speed and grinding quality and provides the perfect raw material for the black gold.

Our colleague Orakel has the details, but we also notice: Nordstau! For what feels like the first time this winter! At least east of the Arlberg, the base was and is poor to miserable for the end of March (!), but we are still happy about the late powder gifts.
