<h2>Raising The Bar (Again)</h2>
<p>For five long years, the Comandante C40 MKIII has been the gold standard for hand coffee grinding,
being used by home enthusiasts and professionals alike for everything from Turkish coffee to cold brew.
However, Comandante has made it clear that there was still room for improvement in the fourth iteration
of this ever-popular grinder. While keeping all of the features that made the Comandante C40 worthy of
use in the World Brewer's Cup, the MKIV has undergone thoughtful revisions that will undoubtedly meet,
or even surpass, the recognition of its predecessor.</p>

<h2>All-Around Improvements</h2>
<p>Above everything else, Comandante has been praised for the phenomenal particle uniformity that the
C40 grinders produce. In keeping with the same stainless steel body, axle, crank arm, dual ball
bearings, and its Nitro Blade conical burrs, you can expect the same high-quality performance from the
MKIV. However, with a newly designed engine frame that eliminates the issue of beans or bean particles
getting stuck inside the upper internals, a smoother work-flow is now inherent to the C40. Add to this
a clear, polymer catch-cup that won't shatter if accidentally dropped, you can breathe a little easier
while grinding that first cup of the day.</p>

</div>
<div class="medium-6 columns product-paragraph">
<h2>Nothing Lost, Everything Gained</h2>
<p>While the MKIV's internals all work in tandem to keep the same uniformity in your ground coffee that
the MKIII delivered, none of aesthetics of the grinder have been sacrificed in doing so. Four
differently colored wood veneers grace the stainless steel body, including American cherry, cobalt,
burgundy, and black. An amber glass catch cup is still included for those who prefer a darker look to
their C40, and all parts from the MKIII are backwards compatible for the MKIV in case you prefer the
clear glass jar, the lighter-colored pommel on the crank arm, or even if you want to move your Red Clix
adapter from one grinder to the other, the MKIV is perfectly capable of using these parts.</p>

<h4>Comparison Of Premium Hand Grinders</h4></a><br>
<p>The ascension of the grinder to its status as the most crucial piece of brewing gear is well
deserved. More than anything else the grinder has the potential to make, or severely limit the flavor
quality of brewed coffee.</p>
