1) use the manual pulverizing button and measure the powder weight with an electronic scale. There will be an error of + /-0.2g when using manual pulverization. This is the conclusion we reached during the test, so you need to add or remove a little coffee powder to achieve the most standard weight. Some of our customers use small cups instead of handles when weighing them. You can also do this. After measuring, you can pour the coffee powder directly into the handle.

2) press powder according to your usual habit. In order not to destroy the just set amount of coffee powder, you need to use uniform strength when pressing the powder, so that the surface level of pressed powder, the overall pressure of pressed powder is moderate. No matter what method you use, you need to pay attention to the consistent method of pressing powder each time, so as to avoid the effect of making skills on the quality of coffee. 3) before using an electronic scale to measure the total weight of coffee, you need to put the coffee cup on the scale and then clear it. You also need a stopwatch to measure the extraction time. It would be great if you had a stopwatch on your coffee machine. You can also find a special timer to measure the extraction time.

4) start extracting coffee. If there is no scale on your coffee cup, you need to measure the total weight of the coffee (28-32g). Measuring weight can help you determine whether coffee extraction is fast or slow, which is much more accurate than visually measuring the flow rate of coffee. This is not to say that visual observation is useless, but at least the numbers don't lie to you.

Hand punching pot, French pressing pot and American dripping coffee machine generally grind particles with medium roughness (No. 7-6 scale). Siphon pot, Belgian royal pot, generally medium grinding particles (6-4 scale), love pressure, mocha pot are generally medium-fine grinding particles (4-3 scale), Italian espresso machine, ice drop pot are generally fine grinding particles (3-2 scale), Turkish coffee maker is generally ultra-fine grinding particles (1 scale), judging method, medium or coarse particles are sugar size Medium or medium fine particles are the size of sea salt particles, and medium or fine particles are the size of flour but with sandy handle, while ultra-fine particles such as flour have no obvious feel.
