Review: maybe I didn't need this, but it works - I came to buy a cheap grinder and ended up going down a rabbit hole of grinder types and it was very overwhelming. Apparently the cheap electric grinders I've been using are crap. I decided to go manual as I didn't feel like paying $80+ for a grinder at the moment and the ol' internet recommended this one. So I'm still not sure if I'm grinding right because this thing is a little tricky to use, but my cheap metal filter pour over cup of coffee has definitely gone from being a semi sludgy mess to something much better. I bought this to grind for cold brew which I haven't done yet, but I'm hoping for good results. If not I'm going to feel like a dummy grinding for 8 minutes to get enough grounds for one batch. Yes, the instructions are in Japanese, but a quick google search will tell you what you need to know. This is probably not the best for making a large pot of coffee in a hurry unless you pre grind some (which maybe defeats the purpose of having freshly ground coffee) but for one or two cups it really doesn't take very long. Another positive thing is that this will screw onto a regular mason jar so for larger batches I won't need to grind, empty the container, and then grind more.
Review: you need to know what you're doing - it's a solid product and it does a good job, but definitely not recommended for a novice or someone who doesn't know their way around mechanical devices as it is a bit more nuanced than your typical hand grinder

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between the old model and the new one?**
A: There are inconsistencies in the part numbering from manufacturer. I purchased a skerton in 2014 for $27 in 2014 and still am very happy with product. 
I recently purchased a second (new model MSCS-2B) for $56 which is the darker color. It takes twice as many turns to grind and there is no improvement in the espresso grind. 
I am trying to figure out what the extra cost is for. 
I looked in purchase history and the first skerton I purchased for $27 has same part number as new one for $56.

**Q: Where can I purchase a replacement glass container?**
A: I don't think Hario sells just the glass container.

**Q: Is there different grind settings?**
A: The coarseness of the grind can be adjusted manually. There are no preset grind settings.

**Q: Did anyone receive instructions in english? the ones i received were entirely in japanese.**
A: Mine were in English.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Quirky Workhorse
*by S***Y on December 26, 2022*

I got this because it came up again and again when I Googled "best manual coffee grinders." It replaced a cheap cylindrical metal grinder made in China, which broke after a month, so that's all I have to compare it to. The best thing about it is the wide hopper. It grinds more coffee at a time, and therefore it grinds fast -- 4 tablespoons of beans in 1-2 minutes, versus 4-5 minutes with my old grinder. It's easy to take apart and put together. It's fairly easy to clean, again because of the wide hopper, but you will need a bottle brush to get every nook and cranny. It may take practice to find the grind adjustment that suits your preference, but once you do, it's easy to set it again after you wash it. The drawback of the wide hopper is that the waist of the grinder is too big for the average female hand. It's easy to lose your grip on it. After dropping it once, I started holding it braced against my body, to keep a better grip on it, and over a kitchen counter, as well, so it wouldn't have far to fall. It has other drawbacks. Grinding coffee gives it a static charge. That didn't matter with my old metal grinder, but it makes the coffee stick to the glass receptacle of the Hario. I have to hit the receptacle against the counter or with a knife handle to get all the coffee out. The rubber skirt of the receptacle, intended to cushion the glass against breaking, tends to just fall off. And it has one major design flaw: Grinding loosens the nut that holds the handle on. I discovered this when the nut just flew off mid-grind. Now, after every 20-30 seconds of grinding, I stop to retighten the nut. Bottom line, I don't understand why it keeps getting on "10 best" lists. It has its flaws. However, once you get used to it, it's a sturdy, hard-working grinder that makes delicious coffee. Pro tip: My cell phone translation app translated the Japanese instructions, no problem.
