The rechargeable grinder that goes anywhere — and grinds perfectly every time.

A good grinder is the single most important piece of coffee equipment you own. More important than the kettle. More important than the brewer. Fresh-ground coffee makes more difference to the cup than anything else — and a consistent grind is what separates good coffee from great. The LastaForest rechargeable grinder delivers both, in a package that fits in a travel bag.

This isn't a cheap hand grinder. It's a battery-powered electric burr grinder with adjustable grind settings, stainless steel construction, and enough charge to grind 15+ cups on a single battery. And right now it's 60% off.

What makes this grinder different

Most portable grinders are one of two things: a cheap hand grinder that takes 3 minutes and wrecks your wrist, or a large electric grinder that requires a power outlet. This is neither. It's battery-powered, compact enough to fit in a bag, and grinds consistently enough for espresso-level precision.

• Rechargeable lithium battery — 15+ cups per charge via USB-C
• Adjustable burr grind — works for espresso, pour over and drip
• Stainless steel construction — built to last, easy to clean
• No cord required — grind anywhere, home, office or travel
• Compact — fits in a backpack, travel kit or kitchen drawer
• Consistent particle size — the foundation of a great cup
• Quiet motor — grind without waking the house

"I travel every other week for work. I've been making compromised coffee in hotel rooms for years. This grinder changed that. I bring my own beans and grind fresh every morning."

Who this is for

This grinder is ideal for three types of people. First: the home barista who wants a compact grinder that doesn't take up half the bench. Second: the traveller who refuses to drink mediocre hotel coffee. Third: the office worker who wants to grind fresh at their desk without carrying a bag of gear.

If you're currently pre-grinding beans or buying ground coffee, this is the single upgrade that will have the most impact on your cup. The difference between pre-ground and freshly ground is not subtle — it's dramatic. Oils, aroma, and flavour begin degrading within minutes of grinding. Fresh is better, every time.

Grind settings — what actually works

The grinder has multiple grind settings from fine (espresso) to coarse (French press). For pour over, you want a medium grind — roughly the consistency of coarse sand. The adjustment mechanism is smooth and stays in place, which matters more than people realise. Cheap grinders drift back to a coarser setting mid-grind. This one doesn't.

The 60% discount — is it real?

Yes. LastaForest is running a significant discount on this model right now. We've tracked the price over time — the $660 RRP is the standard retail price and $265 is a genuine reduction. We don't know how long it lasts, but at this price point it's one of the best value grinders available in Australia.
