About the 1Zpresso K-Ultra
The 1Zpresso K-Ultra is a manual hand grinder with 48 mm conical burrs and stepped adjustment. At its coarsest it reaches about 1250 µm, so Cold Brew sits partly beyond its range. Each click moves the grind by roughly 12.5 µm.
Methods the 1Zpresso K-Ultra covers
All 19 are worked out from this grinder's range and burr geometry. Its maker doesn't publish settings, and nobody has measured it that we can cite. Start there and adjust to taste.

1Zpresso K-Ultra — frequently asked questions
Is the 1Zpresso K-Ultra a manual or electric grinder?
The 1Zpresso K-Ultra is a manual hand grinder with 48 mm conical burrs.
How much does each click change the grind on the 1Zpresso K-Ultra?
Each click on the 1Zpresso K-Ultra changes the grind by about 12.5 microns, so you can dial in small steps.
What grind sizes can the 1Zpresso K-Ultra produce?
At its coarsest the 1Zpresso K-Ultra reaches about 1250 µm, covering 19 of the brew methods we chart. Its finest setting isn't published, so we don't state one.
Can I copy grind settings from another grinder to the 1Zpresso K-Ultra?
Not directly — every grinder's scale is arbitrary, so a number that works on one model won't match the 1Zpresso K-Ultra. Match the micron range instead, using the chart above.
