Experiment on adjusting the thickness and thickness of hario Bean Mill Coffee Grinder scale and Coffee Powder

For professional baristas, please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)

40% of the netizens who patronize the small station come by inquiring about the Hario bean grinder, and most of them want to know how to adjust the scale. So I simply made a comparison, so that friends who want to buy this machine have a bottom in mind.

Today's test subject, Starbucks beans: Espresso Roast

First of all, remove the handle of the bean grinder, leaving only the bottom gear.

Adjust the height of the gear and put the bamboo shoots on it.

After you put your hands back, you can grind the beans.

Count carefully, the height of this gear has eight laps, which can be adjusted in a wide range, but if it is adjusted to the highest point, even beans can be leaked, of course, it is very impractical, so I will only test the lowest point and start counting a total of five laps.

Unground beans.

Five groups of ground beans

After turning to the lowest place, the gap is so narrow that the beans can hardly be ground. It feels like peeling coffee beans and giving up after grinding a few times. However, you can see that the bean powder is very meticulous. Friends who have time can give it a try.

The lowest point plus a circle:

Add two laps to the lowest point, and the particles begin to get thicker:

Add three laps to the low

Add four laps to the low point, and it will only be crushed to the size of 1/4.

Because we can't find a suitable mark at the moment, these photos don't have a scale, so we can still see the thickness of the powder. The design of the gear cart is fine-tuned with a precision of 1/6 laps. I use the plug kettle, which is used to grind beans with the lowest point plus one and 2/3 laps. Most manual bean grinders have more or less the same principle, and you can adjust the scale according to the type of utensils and taste. The Espresso Roast I tried this time is a mixed bean with a strong fruity aroma. At first taste, the earthy taste is obvious, but the taste remaining on the tip of the tongue is very sweet. I quite like it.
