The Timemore G1S has the same high-quality aluminum and black walnut used on other Timemore models but in greater quantity and distributed with a different style.
The body and interior of the grinds-catch are made of aluminum alloy; the axle, dual bearings, and crank arm are made of stainless steel; and the pommel and exterior of the grinds-catch are made of black walnut.
The burrs are premium, too, taking the E&B burrs of the Slim and NANO Plus models and coating them in a layer of titanium nitride that will make them last longer and feed more efficiently.
The G1S has a stepped grind adjustment system. The grind size is set by turning a dial on the bottom of the center burr. The dial, which is on a wheel attached to the axle, pushes the center burr closer to the outer burr when turned clockwise (creating a finer grind), and pulls the burr away from the outer burr when turned counterclockwise (creating a coarser grind).
The G1 Plus offers a full grind range, with espresso starting around 7 clicks from zero and pour over starting at around 15.
