Virginia Wallnut is muuuuuch better for me! Here's the question, is it ok if handle not fixed permanently, but has some small range of movement when on the grinder
I like Liquid amber better. ☺️
Thank you for the Giveaway and the chance to win a Comandante Liquid Amber 😉
I have a question regarding the cleaning liquids. How important is the wood care set/ burr care set? I’ve never seen anyone even mention them except for this video where the wood fluid is briefly mentioned :)
I fancy the liquid amber 🙂
I recently bought the black mk4 after hearing you folks talk about Comandante in so many videos over the years, 1 month in and it's been a whole new experience of coffee brewing. I loved the cleaning tips here, super helpful and practical advice!
Just from my brief interaction with Bernd, you can just tell that he has such a genuine character! Definitely a company to support
I so in love with my Comandante! It"s truly a game-changer for everyday uses.
Comandante shows that everything can be made in Europe and not just designed. The price is higher, but it's a grinder for life and not like a smartphone for two years. Virginia walnut is a classic, but liquid amber looks really great.
❤❤❤
I love the team’s videos. Both grinders are top quality, and I would be grateful any of the two. I would be prone for the liquid Amber though. Keep the great educational content coming!
I also thought it was pricy prior to buying. After reflecting, reading and watching videos for over 2 weeks. It was the clear best choice. And I’ve been enjoying it every day. Cheers!
Finally a video that discuss a detailed maintenance of the Comandante! Also the first vid that I saw which discuss the wood care balm that Comandante is selling. The Virginia Walnut is more appealing as it shows the grains of the wood which it came from.
Thank you for making this great video! I appreciate your effort for making all of these contents. This is the place where I learned a lot about coffee brewing and many subjects related to coffee and equipment. And let me say Virginia Walnut version is awesome!
Comandante is really a good choice for all travelers and outdoor people, who love great coffee on the way. I would definitely go with Virginia Walnut because of its natural look. 💙
I love your videos! On point, informative and it is just fun to watch you. Keep that going :)
The liquid amber seems most appealing to me. I have always been intrigued by this grinder. Build quality seems top notch. Thank you for the detailed video.
Love the Liquid Amber! The Comandante Factory Tour was fantastic! What a great company! Thanks for all the great content!
I own the MK3 Red Sonja, and it is still the main gear for filter brew. Have experienced problem of cracked lid (but still usable until now) and stuck jar, but the performance is still as great as since day one.
You can really feel the love you have for this product! The Liquid Amber one would be my preferred colorway.
wonderful video , thank you guys for sharing knowledge. Liquid Amber looks amazing 😍
I love my Mk3 so much,
C40 is my go to grinder when ever trying new beans and brewing outside.
Just love using it
Between the two, the liquid amber just looks more appealing to me, just love that shade of brown. Also, Thank you for sharing! Such a fascinating product.
All of these grinders are beautiful, you can really tell there's a high level of craftsmanship! I personally like the liquid amber a little more.
Thank you for this informative video, I learned a lot about maintenance and troubleshooting. I'd love the Virginia Walnut, it is so pretty 😍
Thanks for this intructive video again!
I have wanted one of these grinders ever since I discovered it. I love the look of the Virginia Walnut.
This was an awesome video, again! The Liquid Amber version looks absolutely gorgeous and I would really love to own one someday
The Liquid Amber color looks great! Love IT!
Thanks for your nice and informative video.
I love my Red Sonja for many years now. Great grinder! ;-)
Thanks for watching! Did you see our video from the Comandante factory? I bet you will like it 🤛
The virginia walnut looks so goodd. Definitely sits nicely with my brew set up 🤤
Great and quick deep dive into the history and tips of the comandante grinders. Didn't know there was a C20 version in the previous iterations. As for me, I prefer the liquid amber.
Super useful. Thank you🙏
Great video as always! Liquid Amber looks amazing!
Super helpful video , thank you !
I love my Mk3 in zebra wood. I use it everyday day few times for 2years. Great grinder
Liquid Amber looks amazing! I want it now!
Obviously they are both stunning. Dreamy indeed! Ultimate hand powered coffee buddy. The darker colored wood of the Virgnia Walnut is my personal preference. Keep up the good work !
Amazing quality products, by coffee enthusiasts who people thought over engineered a coffee grinder which turned out to be an industry standard. Thank you Comandante for bringing the C40. Virginia Walnut is a beautiful finish.
Great video and have learned a lot of tips and tricks on how to take care of the grinder. I prefer the Liquid Amber and it will be a great addition to my coffee brewing.
Love the viginia walnut. Comandante is just a must have if you enjoy making and drinking coffee at home! More than worth the price
Liquid Amber for sure! Super cool video! Keep up the awesome work!
The liquid amber looks lovely - definitely one of my goals to step up my coffee game in the future ☕️
Awesome models! I love that Virginia Walnut
Was considering a hand grinder recently and came across your video. Thanks for the background info and tips and tricks! A valuable resource indeed. I love the wood accents. I would pick the walnut version!
Yet another wonderful video - thanks!
Liquid Amber gets my vote, because we used to have a beautiful Liquidambar tree in our parking area. I still miss those colors every Fall.
I love the Virginia Walnut one… thanks for the video, it was really informative!
Great video. Thanks!
simply the best coffee grinder out there!))
I have an Aunt in California whose name is Virginia. I also lived in the state of Virginia for a number of years while I was in the Navy. Saying that I think I still prefer the Liquid Amber finish as that is a good description of have a cup of lovely coffee. Great video. I have a black C40 and wrap rubber bands tightly around it to keep firmly in my hand as I grind.
Beautiful overview, excited for the new travel version. And I like the Liquid Amber version.
Great video as usually - keep the good work coming our way! I would go for Liquid Amber, looks absolutely fantastic!!!
Great video as always! Virginia Walnut looks the best but that Alpine Lagoon tho... Comandante is nailing it in the looks department!
Excellent grinders! I love that Virginia walnut, it looks stunning!
Hehe it's Virginia...
I like the Liquid Amber more!
Very interesting video, thanks for all the tips!
My favourite grinder!!!!comandante is the best grinder in the world😆
I love the liquid amber. It gives a sense of sleek natural wood appearance.
Really love the look of the C40 Mk4 Virginia Walnut, will be great to own such a great & legendary piece of coffee equipment.
love the overview and the tips, and i like liquid amber!
Great informative video. I screw on stuff the wrong way all the time, so the freezer-tip is quite brilliant (I'm going to use that for everything from now on)! The virginia walnut-version looks pretty amazing. Love to own one of those.
Great video - the Liquid Amber definitely taking my vote, what a beauty!
Great content as always! A Comandante liquid amber would be a great addition to my daily brewing routine.
Great Video!
Great video for anyone looking to invest in a new grinder! Love the MK40 in Liquid Amber!
Excellent and very informative video. I love that Liquid Amber color! I'll be sure to check out your video on the Comandante factory tour as well!
I personally prefer the Virginia walnut version. Thanks for keeping us posted on the latest coffee gear!
Liquid Amber is NO 1.
Great video as always, thanks!
Wow thank great info, very intresting.
One day I may be able to afford one.
I always wanted one of these. The simple looking wooden ones will suit my kit.
Thank you for sharing! I always love your channel. I was born and raised in Virginia so I've got to go with the Virginia walnut!
For me it's the virginia walnut, love the shade. Also, keep up te good work. Hope to visit one day!
One thing of note is, when cleaning, remember the position of the burr you detach relative to the crank and when assembling return it in the same position. Not sure if the factory "ideally" calibrates just for one position (there are six possible positions you can attach the burr to the axle), but I've noticed that in one position of those six burrs are not touching even at the setting of 1! On others, they touched at positions 3, 2... So it looks like there's one perfectly centered position and the others are a bit off.
cant wait to get one
I miss a woody touch in my daily life! That’s why I’d really love to finally have the Virginia Walnut 🙏
I have tried my friend's commandante and I can clearly taste the difference of the grinds it produces compared to other grinders. The brews definitely tasted more sweet and fruity/juicy after comparing the same coffee bean, grind and brew with my cheaper grinder. Also, I think I like the shade of Victoria Walnut better.
Can I also suggest if you can do some pour over recipe recommendations for some beans or on how to bring out certain taste notes better. Thanks
Liquid Amber looks amazing!
Thanks for this great video! I am a huge fan of the Comandante since I used it for the first time. Can't wait to have an opportunity to test a new MK4 version of the grinder! Liquid Amber looks amazing for me! :)
Love the Liquid Amber! Gorgeous grinder.
Brilliantly done 🎉
Considering it’s a coffee grinder this video was informative and entertaining
Well done
The liquid amber looks really nice!
The Liquid Amber looks amazing!
Always looking out for the commandante to up the pour over game! The Liquid Amber Variante looks especially gorgeous
Great video! Thanks for the chance. Virginia walnut is the one for me!
I love the color of the liquid amber, I hope to get 1 so I can bring the grinder anywhere I go so I can drink coffee everywhere. It has a life time warranty for the burr set and share brewing recipe with other users too, it’s easy to clean an assemble too
The liquid amber looks very nice!
Thank you for this very informative video once again. I really like the liquid amber one. Anyway, I really enjoy the American Cherry Comandante I have ayt home. Thank you!
Nice and interesting Video. The Black one with the Skateboard nob looks soo nice. 😍
I would take booth, but Liquid Amber is my Favourite 😉
Virginia Walnut for me. Thanks for a wonderful video!
The Comandante C40 MK4 with Virginia Walnut pattern would be an incredible addition to my coffee routines!
Thanks for the video! Virginia walnut looks amazing!)
Nice video, I am looking into purchasing one for the office 😃
great video!
Virginia walnut looks awesome!
Nice Video und even nicer Grinders.
I really like both grinders but if I had to chose it would be the Virginia Walnut.
I like the liquid amber mode more. The lighter shade of wood seems nice. There isn’t too much of a difference that I can tell from the video so they both seem like awesome grinders!
Awesome video very informative! I love all the accessories. I like the Virginia walnut since I used to live in Virginia. thank you for the chance to win!!
I love the look of liquid amber!
That liquid amber colour is gorgeous
Always had a fascination with the high-end hand grinders like Comandante and Kinu. All my specialty coffee friends swear by either of the 2, but sadly as a broke grad student the price tag is a bit much for me. For the raffle though, the Virginia Walnut just has that special oomph to its look imo
1Zpresso line is more or less a good contender
I love the liquid amber as the colour looks polish and match with my overall aesthetic. 🥵❤️
Both are very close, but with that lighting, the Virginia Walnut looks truly stunning!
Liquid Amber looks neat....Good luck to all!
Congrats on the new colleague! Great video too
Thanks, so happy to have Lukasz in the team.
I Love the Look of the liquid Amb er Version. I Always wantet a comandante Grinder by myself, but I've never had one :( Maybee now is the perfect Time to get one, because of Sharing recipes with the Coffee Community. Thats one of the parts about the Grinder i Like the Most :)
The liquid amber looks amazing
