"Grinding and making now" is the iron rule of making a good cup of coffee forever! If freshly ground coffee beans are ground and not brewed in a short period of time (relax a little bit, about half an hour), entering the dustbin should be their most reasonable destination.

A good cup of coffee begins with high-quality coffee beans, that is, beans must be delicious and fresh. The rest, such as equipment, technology, etc., are relatively less important. Dare to offend the professional self-esteem of a large number of "coffee giants" for the following two reasons:

Even if the equipment is simple, it is not difficult to make very delicious coffee.

Although there are differences in brewing techniques, as long as you master the four basic principles, even if the results are not close to full marks, it is not difficult to reach the level of 80 or 90. The four basic principles I mentioned are: grinding, water temperature, time and ratio. This article starts with grinding.

Why do you need grinding? In theory, roasted coffee beans, even if they are not ground and directly soaked in water, can extract most of the soluble substances as long as the time is long enough. but it is bound to pay the following costs: too long time, loss of volatile aroma, lower temperature, and so on. So long before coffee became a popular drink in the Islamic world, the first country in the literature to "drink" coffee, Yemen (known as Arabia in ancient times), already knew to grind coffee beans with a pestle and mortar to increase the overall surface area and speed up the extraction. Today, wherever and in any way coffee is prepared in the world, it is an inevitable pattern to grind coffee beans into particles first, and the prototype of the grinder used to grind coffee has to be attributed to the invention of the Turks.

Grinding, in the whole process of coffee preparation, is far more important than many people think, because coffee beans, no matter how carefully planted, harvested, treated and roasted, have to go through these last two hurdles: grinding and brewing. But I found that most of the people who prepare their own coffee focus on brewing, but often don't care about grinding. For example, I often see some people who buy ground coffee powder in a volume store or ask the shop owner to grind the whole coffee beans in a coffee shop immediately. This practice of grinding the coffee long before brewing can be said to be a big mistake. Just imagine, the most precious aromatic gas of coffee is sealed in thousands of holes in the beans after roasting. As long as there are gaps, we try our best to keep them. You have to open these holes in advance and let them escape freely. Isn't it strange that you would rather drink a cup of coffee without fragrance and scold the coffee bought is not as good as the coffee drunk in the coffee shop?
