For lovers of freshly ground coffee, choosing a grinder is often as important as choosing the coffee itself. The 1Zpresso brand is a renowned manufacturer of hand grinders with many years of experience. It offers several series of quality hand grinders. Choosing the right model can significantly affect the quality of your coffee.
In this article, we'll discuss what to look for and which 1Zpresso models are best suited depending on your needs.
Grinders 1Zpresso according to the grinding thickness adjustment mechanism:
| Setting type | Models | Advantages and disadvantages |
|---|---|---|

The grinding thickness is adjusted at the bottom of the grinding mechanism. The collection container must be removed when adjusting. |
| Top adjustment | JX-Pro S, JE-Plus | The grinding thickness is adjusted from the top, where the coffee is poured into the grinder. The practical top control allows for quick and convenient adjustment of the grinding fineness directly when filling the coffee. |

Grinders 1Zpresso by coffee preparation method
Pour over
These models are optimized for medium to coarse grinds, ideal for methods such as V60, Chemex, Kalita, AeroPress (in filter mode). Maximum attention is paid to the purity of the differences, minimal fines and consistency at medium grind ranges.
-
Q series (Q / Q2 / Q Air)
The Q series is the entry-level series for filter grinding. The Q series models are compact, lightweight and travel-friendly. The Q2 has 40mm grindstones, is easy to disassemble and maintains a good consistency when grinding into a filter.
Model Q Air is a variant of this series with a lighter plastic body. Its dimensions and low weight (425g) make it an ideal travel grinder. It is great for camping. Its size is what sets it apart from other 1Zpresso models. These models use an internal grinding coarseness adjustment.
-
J-model
Compared to the Q2, it has larger grinding stones and a wider range of fineness settings, contributing to better grinding efficiency. For Pour-over coffee enthusiasts, the J grinder is the ideal partner. The large grinding stones and classic internal settings give it exceptional grinding speed and consistency.
-
model ZP6 Special
The best of the pour-over grinders. This grinder produces the least fines in the 1Zpresso range. The large 48mm grinding stone design ensures fast and consistent grinding. External ring for fineness adjustment.
Espresso
-
J-Ultra model
The flagship model in the espresso category from 1Zpresso. It has 48 mm titanium-coated grinding stones, a fine adjustment step (8 µm) and an external coarseness control. It is aimed at those who want extremely precise fine-tuning when preparing espresso. Its design, materials and precision make it the ideal choice for those who are dedicated exclusively to the espresso method.
Universal grinders
These models are designed to handle a wide range of grind sizes – from fine espresso to filter methods. They are a compromise between specialization and flexibility. Therefore, it is necessary to accept that in extreme settings (very fine espresso or very coarse filter modes) there may be slight limits in the precision of the result, which is a natural compromise of universal models.
-
X-Ultra model
The X-Ultra is one of the most versatile models in the 1Zpresso range. Precise 40mm heptagonal grinding stones and external adjustment in 12.5µm increments allow for seamless adjustment from fine espresso to coarse Pour-over without the hassle of disassembly. Users and reviewers alike praise it as a great compromise - one grinder that can handle espresso, filter and AeroPress. The premium design, magnetic container and easy, tool-free cleaning make the X-Ultra the ideal companion for everyday coffee preparation.
-
K-Ultra model
It is the flagship of the universal grinders. Thanks to the external adjustment ring with more than 100 clicks, each step changing the grinding thickness by approximately 20 microns, adjustment is very simple and quick without the need for disassembly. The large 48 mm heptagonal steel grinding stones ensure fast and uniform grinding for a variety of preparation methods, from espresso to filter coffee.
