The product is intended to be used by the foodie, someone who has a deep appreciation for fresh, high quality food products. The ACORN grinds fresh coffee beans manually, without the use of electricity. The blade of the grinder acts as a flywheel and is powered by pumping the helical shaft. The product brings the user closer to the physical experience of grinding coffee beans-the user can feel them, smell them and see them being ground in the transparent crucible.
