Lovely grinder! Resembles mine (although mine's got straight sides, metal drawer, and a grind-adjustment knob, top-rear) -- it's a late-1960s/early-1970s Zassenhaus, and it's my "daily" grinder. A 2007 eBay purchase. Bodum "Shin Bistro" press-pot. Originally Posted by eddy79

You can have everything, and still not have enough.
I'd give it all up, for just a little more.

Mine is a Zassenhaus as well. Grind adjust is inside under the mill. Think it is a bit earlier around the 40s mark. The curved sides are for holding between the knees. Will grind fine enough for espresso but takes a fair while when grinding that fine. Originally Posted by JBHoren

The old Zass units were about the best you could get. The new ones are a different story. I've had them literally fall apart on me while using. Originally Posted by eddy79

One way to tell the quality of a found coffee mill is to look at the adjustment mechanism. If at the crank shaft in plain sight, not so good. The better ones had the fine adjust mechanism inside and can be adjusted after removing the grounds box. Turn the lever/ tab at the base of the shaft to adjust.
