How to use the coffee electric bean grinder how to adjust the thickness of powder by electric mill

Now coffee is becoming more and more popular. In the past, if you wanted to drink freshly ground coffee, you had to go to a coffee shop to drink it. Now the emergence of more and more household coffee utensils makes it extremely easy to make coffee at home. A set of simple and cheap hand-flushing utensils, a small electric mill, and a bag of freshly roasted coffee beans, you can drink coffee with full flavor without leaving home.

How to brew coffee by hand, how to choose parameters, and so on, have been shared a lot in front of the street. Today, Qianjie is shared from another angle, that is, the question of how the electric mill should be used and maintained.

Many friends will think that how to use the electric mill is not difficult, as long as plug the plug, find the power switch, the place of the bean and the place of the powder. The basic grinding operation can be mastered after getting the machine for a while, but some bad (or wrong) usage habits may affect the flavor of the coffee and the performance of the bean grinder. Qianjie will share some tips on the use of electric mills. Washing coffee beans before grinding several friends were puzzled by one step of making coffee in the front street, that is, 3-4 coffee beans of the same style would be ground in advance before formally grinding the coffee beans that need to be brewed.

In fact, this step is "clean grinding", because the structure of the electric mill is slightly complex, and the interior of the cutter head is very difficult to clean. After each grinding of coffee beans, a small amount of coffee powder will stick to the inside of the knife head (grinding bin). If you ignore it, when you grind the coffee beans next time, the remaining coffee powder may be mixed with the later coffee powder, resulting in a "cross taste". A more obvious example is that when the deep-roasted coffee beans are ground in the first round and the lightly roasted coffee beans are ground in the second round, the light roasted coffee in the second round is likely to taste bitter.

Therefore, before each formal grinding, grind 3-4 coffee beans in advance to empty the last round of residual powder on the cutter to avoid falling into the coffee powder we need to brew. -start the grinder first, and then drop the beans, which many friends don't notice. It is considered that there will not be much difference in the order of the two. But in fact, it is very easy to damage the cutter head after putting the beans first and then starting the grinding. When starting the bean grinder, the rotational speed of the cutter head from static to stable takes about 0.5-1 second. If you first put the coffee beans, the coffee beans will get stuck between the cutters. If you start, nothing will happen with good luck (just a large loss of the knife head). Bad luck, encounter high hardness beans, may be directly stuck, characterized by home use of small electric mill (lack of power, low speed). After starting the bean grinder, when the speed is stable, the probability of failure is much smaller. Daily Xiaoqing, regular cleaning of the bean grinder is the key to maintain the service life of the bean grinder. Unlike the hand mill, the electric mill can be disassembled and cleaned very easily. Therefore, after daily use, you can use blowing balloons to blow air in the bean inlet and outlet to clean up some of the residual powder in the grinding bin, but pay attention to safety to ensure that the bean grinder is not used in the start-up state.

This method can only deal with some sticky residual powder, over time, there will still be a lot of "diehards" on the cutter head. At this time, you need to disassemble the bean grinder and take out the knife head for cleaning. The knife head can be cleaned with clean water, but remember to dry it before installing it.

If you have no confidence in your hands-on ability, you can also buy a special bean grinder to clean up. The specific operation is to put the clean piece into the bean warehouse for grinding, and the coffee powder left in the knife plate will be carried out in the process of grinding into powder. This kind of cleaning method does not need to be too frequent, if the household frequency is about 2-3 cups a day, about once every 2-3 months.
