The practice of grinding multi-espresso coffee with normal latte coffee powder

Italian coffee beans

If you use a coffee cup with a scale, that's great. But you still need to measure the total weight of the coffee to better determine whether the grinder needs to be readjusted. If you use an automatic divider, the total weight of the coffee you make will have an error of about 3G. Since the scale on the cup can help you determine the liquid volume of coffee, you need to spend more energy on measuring the extraction time of coffee.

Let me tell you the importance of these data. Whenever we adjust the coarseness of the bean grinder to + /-1 scale, the extraction time of coffee will change by 4-5 seconds, and the total weight of coffee will have an error of 10g.

Since we use a large bean grinder, the above changes may not be so obvious on a small bean grinder. But this is enough to prove how important the data is in debugging the bean grinder.

When you do this, most brands of bean grinders on the market will store 60g ground coffee powder. According to our experience, you need to store at least 100g of coffee powder in the bean grinder before you can start debugging the machine, and the debugging effect is more obvious. So, you need to make at least three more espresso before you start debugging the bean grinder, and when you're done, you have to make at least five or more cups of coffee. This is very important! The last thing you want to do is go back to work and retest and debug your machine.

At this point you need to decide whether to re-clean the coffee mill. In order to ensure the quality of coffee, if your debugging range is more than 2 scales, you need to thoroughly clean your bean grinder. Although we don't want to waste coffee, according to our experience, the effect is better after cleaning the bean grinder.

If you get the results you want, congratulations! But remember, this is just the beginning. Ensuring the accuracy of the data in the test does not guarantee the perfect quality of your coffee, but it is still a shortcut for you to pursue the best quality of your coffee! If you successfully use this method to calculate the formula for one type of coffee, you can start testing the data needed to make other varieties of coffee, such as drip coffee. Then you will know which data is useful and which is not.
