Because grinding too early or buying ready-made ground coffee powder will increase the surface area of coffee in contact with air and humidity and gradually lose its aroma.

Generally speaking, the shorter the cooking time, the more the coffee powder must try its best to expand its surface area and come into contact with water, and the finer the particles will be; on the contrary, the longer the cooking time, the rougher the grinding particles must be, so as to prevent unnecessary impurities from being extracted. For example, fast-extracted Espresso requires flour-like fine grinding, while filter brewing, which must be fully soaked to release the aroma, requires crumb-like rough grinding.
