    Default My Zassenhaus Coffee Grinder

    Recently picked up a battered old Zassenhaus that I got shipped from Germany, I wrote a little blurb with photos here:

    Nice! I really enjoy fresh ground beans. I currently use my small 110V grinder and the inverter in my Jeep.

    The noise tends to wake the others in my group.

    I don't understand the fuss, who doesn't want fresh ground coffee at 0500 hours?

    Ah, yes. My Kitchenaid screaming like a Banshee at 0500. An omen of my impending demise as children cried and hungover women attacked.

    Great score !
    Like how the adjustments are marked in German, English and French
    Not sure I know what a drowning badger sounds like, but it can't be too bad, can it ?

    Cheers,

    Me neither! I have heard one fighting with a cat in the middle of the night outside my tent though. not nice!

    The grinder just squeaks a little, but in the silence of the 0500 morning it cannot be to good for those still trying to sleep
