The ideal time to grind coffee is to grind it before steaming.

Because ground coffee is easy to oxidize and lose its flavor, especially without proper storage, coffee powder is also easy to change flavor, so it is naturally impossible to brew mellow coffee.

Some people are afraid of trouble or do not want to buy a bean grinder. They usually buy ready-made coffee powder when they drink coffee at home. At this time, they should pay special attention to the problem of storage. After opening the coffee powder, it is best not to place it at room temperature at will. The more appropriate way is to put it in a sealed jar. Because the coffee powder is easy to absorb, an accidental coffee will become a strange flavor coffee, so even the best quality coffee will be spoiled.

However, some people put the steamed coffee powder in the refrigerator as deodorant after sun-drying or microwave drying, which is a good way to make the best use of things.

When grinding beans, the size of the powder depends on the way it is cooked.

Generally speaking, the shorter the cooking time, the finer the grinding powder; the longer the cooking time, the thicker the grinding powder.

In terms of actual cooking, the time required for ESPRESSO machines to brew coffee is very short, so the grinding is the finest, and the coffee powder is as fine as flour; it takes about 1 to 3 minutes to siphon to cook coffee, and the coffee powder is ground to medium-thick; American coffee pots and hand filter bubbles are generally coarse and fine sugar.

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 other hand, if the powder is very coarse and cooked too fast, resulting in insufficient extraction, then the coffee will be insipid because there is no time to dissolve the water-soluble substance in the powder.

There are different brands and types of bean grinders for grinding coffee, and the ideal one is a grinder that can adjust the thickness of the beans. Do not use machete grinder, machete grinder easy to cause uneven thickness. In this way, the coarse powder is not enough to extract the fine powder has been over-extracted. It is conceivable that the coffee brewed in this way must be bitter and astringent, with mixed flavors.

When grinding with a bean grinder, do not grind too much at one time, just enough powder for one time, because the longer the bean grinder is used at one time, the easier it is to heat up, which indirectly causes the coffee beans to be heated in the grinding process and causes the aroma to be released in advance, which will affect the aroma of the steamed coffee. Fresh coffee beans are emerald green and must be roasted, fried, ground into powder and brewed before they can become the coffee sold by the store.
