TIMEMORE Whirly 01S after a week: static grounds and easy portability

Reviewed: TIMEMORE Whirly 01SRegional reference: TIMEMORE Whirly 01S (United States)

I kept my TIMEMORE Whirly 01S after a week: grounds clung to the catch cup, but a chopstick helped, and I found it light enough to carry.

A hand with red-painted nails and bracelets holds a matte black cylindrical device with a narrow vertical indicator and a small white hourglass-like logo against a plain wall.

I came across this new product while browsing online, along with an introductory offer. So I went for it.

But I have to ask: does the grounds cup collect so much static that it drives you crazy?

Could TIMEMORE improve this?

It’s portable, but it doesn’t even come with a bag...

Should I keep it?

Update after a week of personal use

The grounds cup gets covered in grounds from static. I sorted it out with a chopstick, since I didn’t want to spray water on the beans.

It’s fine to take out with me. It’s not heavy, and its size is moderate—many models are smaller, after all.

I think it grinds pretty quickly, too. I put the beans in and start it, then get on with other prep.

I decided to keep it. My first hand grinder was also a C3S. The launch price, a little over 400 yuan, was appealing.

Catch-cup fit and daily cleanup

TIMEMORE designs the Whirly 01S catch cup to fit 58 mm portafilters. The post does not show the chopstick movement; its useful handling detail is that this owner preferred dry cleanup to spraying the beans.

Packing the Whirly

The US model’s stated body size is 72 × 190 mm and its weight is 760 g. Those figures provide a packing reference alongside the owner’s report that this purchase arrived without a carrying bag.
