Coffee at home requires a good grinder.

Brewing coffee at home, the taste not only depends on the quality of the coffee beans, the bean grinder also plays a great role!

Some people sell high-end beans, machines, etc. they spend a lot of money and have good skills, but the taste of coffee has always been scarce; it often has a lot to do with bean grinders. An aspiring bean grinder pleads that the grinding process should produce less heat, grind particles evenly, and there is almost no electrostatic fine powder. As a result of excessive heat production, coffee aroma will be rapidly lost, uneven grinding will form a lack of extraction or excessive, static electricity will have a greater impact on Espresso!

Therefore, a good bean grinder about the taste of coffee is still very important!

Hand-operated bean grinder

Clumsy shape, cone-shaped grinding tools to grind the beans, function and appearance have hardly changed for hundreds of years, very have a livelihood to taste!

The advantage is that there is no need to plug in, quiet, uniform particles, and there will not be overheating! The defect is that if you grind a lot of coffee beans, you will be very tired! The time to grind beans by hand is more suitable for family use, because the amount of coffee I drink will not be very large, and I will not be very tired. On the contrary, the taste of the coffee will be better.

Small electric bean grinder

Two blades rotate to cut up the beans, the defect is that there is more heat production, grinding bean particles are more uneven, static electricity will occur. I advocate not to use coffee at home, because it has a greater impact on the taste of coffee. But with regard to some small coffee shops, when there is a lack of budget, you can think about it: because the hand is too tired and other bean grinders exceed the budget, you can choose it!

Medium bean grinder--

Like Flying Eagle, Pegasus and so on, this kind of bean grinder has the advantages of large amount of grinding beans, high noise and static electricity, but ordinary coffee shops can think about purchasing. Because of its large amount of grinding beans and saving time and effort, it is very appropriate to make a single cup of coffee!

Cutting edge bean grinder--

This kind of bean grinder is very suitable for large coffee shops, because it is suitable for Espresso, with semi-active coffee machine, only the noise is a little louder, of course, with regard to economic conditions, people who love coffee very much must be the first choice!

[grinding method]

No matter what kind of bean grinder is used, there are several ways to grasp:

1. The particle size should be uniform.

If it is uneven, the taste of the brewed coffee will not be coordinated. The finer the grinding particles, the more coffee ingredients are extracted, and the thicker the particles are, the less ingredients are extracted.

In order not to damage the aroma of the original coffee, you should be careful when grinding to make sure that the particles are uniform.

2. Prevent conflict from producing heat

High-speed grinding of coffee beans will generate heat due to conflict, which will transform the coffee powder or lose the aroma components of the coffee. Manual grinders are particularly easy to produce heat, so we should pay attention to slow grinding.

3. Remove fine powder

When grinding coffee beans, there will be some fine powder, such as mixed inside, when brewing will release bitter substances such as tannins. Fine powder occurs more frequently in the use of electric bean grinders, and some electric bean grinders have the function of actively removing fine powder, which can be removed manually. Because the fine powder is lighter than the normal coffee particles, you only need to shake the ground particles while blowing, and you can remove them.

In addition to grasping the grinding method, which has an impact on the taste of coffee, the protection of the grinder is also very important.

The grinder should be cleaned immediately after the grinding is finished. The above fine powder can be attached to the grinder, and the taste of coffee will become worse after repeated use. Fine powder can be removed with a small brush.

In addition, rotary grinding teeth should also be cleaned. Coffee bean oil and fine powder adhere to the above, will affect its normal work, can be cleaned with a fine bamboo stick or toothbrush.
