The Timemore × Millab M01 is a 44mm manual coffee grinder built around a five-stage Pineapple Burr, a tapered conical design that spreads grinding work across an approximately 60mm cutting path, roughly 50% longer than a conventional 44mm conical burr. The M01 covers espresso through French Press in a single dial rotation and is available in Quicksilver and Matte Black colorways.
The Pineapple Burr at the center of the M01 takes a fundamentally different approach to particle reduction. Rather than breaking beans down in one concentrated cutting stage, the five-stage tapered profile distributes that work across multiple zones, reducing abrupt fractures and the fines they produce. The effective cutting path measures approximately 60mm, comparable to what many 64mm flat burr grinders achieve, while the burr itself remains a compact 44mm conical. In practical terms, this translates to a more uniform particle distribution across brew methods, which means more predictable extraction and a cleaner cup whether you are pulling espresso or brewing a coarse French Press.
Particle consistency depends on the burrs staying where they are set. The M01 is built to a specified burr gap tolerance of 0.0725mm, supported by custom P7 bearings developed specifically for this platform. Those bearings are designed to minimize burr movement during grinding, so the gap you dial in at the start of a session is the gap the burrs maintain through the last gram of the dose. The 44mm Pineapple Burr is 5-axis CNC machined from hardened SUS420 stainless steel to 58 HRC, a hardness level that resists wear and holds its geometry over time.
The M01's external adjustment dial is assembled from five machined metal components. Each click locks positively into place, resisting accidental movement during grinding or transport. Up to 100 micro-adjustments are available across a single full rotation, giving fine-grained control from tight espresso settings through coarse brewing without needing to count half-clicks or estimate positions. Because the dial holds its setting reliably, returning to a dialed-in recipe after switching brew methods is a matter of rotating back to a known number rather than re-dialing from scratch.

The M01 suits home brewers and enthusiasts who want a single hand grinder capable of dialing across espresso, pour over, and French Press, and who value precise, repeatable adjustment over speed. The click-lock dial and tight burr tolerances make it a strong fit for anyone who switches between brew methods regularly and needs to return to a known setting reliably.
The M01 is a manual grinder and is not suited to high-volume or commercial grinding where an electric grinder's throughput is needed. Bean capacity is not confirmed in available product data, so buyers grinding large doses should verify this before purchasing. The grinder's internal components must not be exposed to water; it is not designed for wet cleaning.
The Timemore × Millab M01's Pineapple Burr uses a tapered five-stage profile that breaks beans down progressively across multiple cutting zones rather than in a single stage. This creates an effective cutting path of approximately 60mm, about 50% longer than a conventional 44mm conical burr, which reduces abrupt fractures, lowers fines production, and improves particle consistency by approximately 10% compared to the S2C-042-III burr.
The M01 manual grinder offers up to 100 micro-adjustments across a single full rotation of its external dial, covering espresso through French Press. Each click locks positively into place via a click-lock mechanism designed to resist accidental movement during grinding or handling, so a dialed-in setting should remain stable between sessions.
The Timemore × Millab M01 ships with the grinder body, handle, catch cup, magnetic knob, cleaning brush, user manual, and a commemorative coin.
The M01 manual grinder should be brushed out after each use using the included cleaning brush, which is intended for the burr chamber and catch cup. Water must not be introduced into the burr chamber or internal components. The exterior can be wiped with a soft, dry cloth.
The Timemore × Millab M01 is available in two colorways: Quicksilver, which features a carbon fibre-style grip, and Matte Black, which features a walnut grip. The color and grip material are the distinguishing differences between the two variants.
