hand grinder

Crank-powered coffee pulverizer

A hand grinder is a manual grinding device operated by hand rather than electricity—most often for coffee beans, where a crank turns burrs to crush the beans: I use a hand grinder when camping.

Hand grinders also exist for meat, spices, and grain.

The term sometimes refers to a handheld angle grinder, a power tool for cutting and polishing metal.
