St Anthony Millwright Hand Grinder
The Millwright Hand Grinder from Saint Anthony Industries USA is a premium manual coffee grinder designed by Saint Anthony Industries in the USA. Built with a strong focus on precision engineering, durability, and grind consistency, the Millwright combines a rugged industrial aesthetic with high-end grinding performance suitable for both espresso and filter coffee brewing.
At the core of the Millwright is a large 48mm titanium-coated Italian conical burr set, supported by dual precision shaft bearings that help minimize burr wobble and maintain alignment during grinding. This produces highly consistent particle distribution across a wide range of brew methods — from espresso and moka pot to pour over, drip coffee, and French press. The grinder body is machined from aluminum to tight aeronautical tolerances, giving it a solid and premium feel while remaining relatively lightweight for travel and daily use.

Key Features
Large 48mm Titanium-Coated Burrs
The Millwright uses oversized 48mm conical burrs that deliver faster grinding speed and better particle uniformity compared to many smaller hand grinders. The titanium coating improves wear resistance and longevity.
Dual Bearing Stabilization
Unlike cheaper grinders that may develop burr wobble, the Millwright uses dual precision shaft bearings to maintain burr alignment throughout grinding. This results in cleaner flavor clarity and more consistent extraction.
Wide Brewing Range
The grinder is capable of handling:
Espresso
Turkish coffee
Pour over
AeroPress
Drip coffee
French press
The stepped adjustment system allows relatively precise tuning across different brew styles.
Premium Build Quality
The aluminum body feels extremely solid in hand while still remaining portable. The wooden handle and leather carrying sleeve give it a handcrafted premium feel typical of Saint Anthony Industries products.
