Last Updated: 2026/04/04, The proper grinding degree of coffee powder is very important for making a good cup of coffee, because the extraction of water-soluble substances in coffee powder has its ideal time, if the powder is very fine and steamed for a long time, resulting in excessive extraction, the coffee may be very bitter and lose its aroma; on the contrary, if the powder is very coarse and cooks too fast, resulting in insufficient extraction, then the coffee will be tasteless.

On the other hand, if the powder is coarse and cooked too fast, resulting in insufficient extraction, the coffee will be tasteless because it is too late to dissolve the water-soluble substance in the powder.
