Etzinger etz-I (Trim)

Equipment notes

Etzinger is a Liechtenstein-based burr design and manufacturing specialist. The etz-I Trim is a slim variant of the portable etz-I manual grinder, with a narrower body diameter and lighter weight than the Regular, aimed at users with smaller hands or those who prefer a more compact grip. Its internals and burrs are the same as the Regular. It grinds with conical burrs in the RRB (Rotating Ring Burr) arrangement, where the outer ring burr rotates around a stationary inner cone, and a stepped adjustment mechanism gives repeatable return to a fixed setting. An antistatic jig, applied here for the first time in the category, suppresses static to reduce fines scatter and retention. Magnetic lid and cup and a folding crank keep it portable. It suits users with smaller hands or frequent travel who want the same burr performance and repeatability in a narrower, lighter body.
