Overview
The Hario MSG-2-T is a compact ceramic burr hand grinder with a transparent body that lets you see the grinding progress. The 38mm ceramic burrs handle medium to coarse grinding well, and the stepped adjustment provides basic but functional settings. The transparent design is both aesthetic and practical, allowing users to see when beans are fully ground. An affordable, charming hand grinder for casual home use and travel.
The Hario MSG-2-T features a 38mm conical ceramic burr set, crafted from ceramic. Grind retention is approximately 0.1g — virtually zero retention, making it excellent for single dosing.
At $49, the Hario MSG-2-T is aimed at budget-conscious coffee lovers just starting their espresso journey. Key workflow features include single-dose design (no hopper needed). As a hand grinder, it's completely silent, portable, and gives you a meditative morning ritual.
The Hario MSG-2-T is weighing 0.3 kg, manufactured in Japan. Its footprint measures 53 x 53 x 175 mm (W×D×H).
