Begin with the burr
Burrs are usually treated like commodity items –
functional and standardized. They’re tucked away inside
the grinder, rarely celebrated, seldom questioned. But
what if the burr geometry held the key to unlocking
hidden taste potential, something roast curves or brew
methods can’t fully reveal?

For over a decade, Comandante® founder Bernd Braune has been working on innovative concepts for conical burr sets. At their Bavarian Burr Lab, their engineers have been pushing the boundaries of machining technology and developing pioneering tooling to achieve them.

Lab Series gives you more freedom to experiment and explore flavor possibilities. Global brewing styles and taste preferences are subjective and, like coffee itself, wonderfully diverse. Embrace this diversity, confidently explore what tastes best to you, and enjoy not just the result, but also the journey getting there.

Comandante C40 LAB Series Tigershark is equipped with Comandantes pioneering COMANDANTE TIGERSHARK® burr.
The Double Shark Tips create a double-cut action to efficiently deal not only with dense, light roasted specialty coffee, but also other semi-elastic materials with reduced brittleness, such as grains used for porridge or flat breads. The coating-free edge and blade structure, coupled with this steel’s extraordinary toughness and extremely high edge retention capabilities, will ensure a lifetime of performance.
