Aromatic and Medicinal Rhizome

Common Names: Finger Root, Chinese Ginger, Lesser Galangal, Krachai, Temu Kunci

Finger Root (Boesenbergia rotunda), also known as Chinese Ginger or Krachai, is an aromatic rhizome widely used in Southeast Asian cuisine and traditional medicine. The plant is named for its long, finger-like roots, which are highly valued for their distinctive flavor, similar to ginger but milder and slightly peppery. Finger Root is a key ingredient in Thai, Indonesian, and Malaysian cooking, adding a unique taste to curries, soups, and stir-fries. In traditional medicine, it is used for its anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and digestive health benefits. This hardy perennial is easy to grow in warm climates or containers, making it a great addition to herb gardens.

Great coffee grinder!
Color: Silver
Amazing product. Easy to use and has different grades of grinding. Zero noise compared with an electric grinder and more control of the results (consistent). His size and weight make it portable and easy to carry.

Quite good as a start grinder
Color: Silver
Very good burr grinder with very functional adjustments. Holds the perfect amount in 1 go for my pour over setup. My only critique is that is has 3 unconnected hopper sections that are quite small and hard to hit. I have to be very careful to not spill and one can fill before the other 2 causing some difficulties closing the crank, but it just takes some self adjustments to get around. Overall I'm very pleased with it for the price.

Great Quality, Great Price.
Color: Black
I have used this for a few days now and it works great. It is very well made and has a large range of adjustability. It is quite small and easy to store. Definitely worth the money.

Nice Grinder at a Great Price
Color: Black
I bought this to use primarily as a travel grinder and found that it is great for every day use. It is not meant for large amounts but it is perfect for single, smaller brewing situations. The grind selection worked well and I "dialed" the proper ground size for my single sized pour over coffee maker.

Ceramic burr destroyed itself
Color: Silver
For the first two-plus months it worked fine -- the perfect grind and the perfect amount with a full barrel for my oversized coffee mug. I've been using it once daily, more or less, on a medium grind setting of 25, and this morning the ceramic burr started to eat itself. This is not acceptable. Follow up: Circle Joy contacted me and offered to give a full refund on this purchase, which was gratefully accepted. This is outstanding customer service.
