Common thickness Diagram of rough Grinding Calibration of Coffee Powder-thickness scale of hand Coffee Powder

Coffee powder coarse grinding scale common thickness diagram-hand brewed coffee powder thickness scale

Scale is only a reference, different brands of different grinding scales are not the same, the same brand of the same model of grinding machine in the same scale performance is not exactly the same, or this understanding is better: scale just tells you which direction is thick which direction is fine, when you find a suitable powder thickness, the role of the scale is only a little show. The premise is that only your bean grinder, and can not change the beans, the amount of powder unchanged, the intensity of the powder can not be changed.

Remember a tip: when you find the right powder thickness, from time to time with a hand twist, pinch a pinch, with the body to perceive the thickness and as far as possible to remember, so even if you change the bean grinder, do not only rely on the scale judgment, with a pinch obviously thick, then fine, can greatly improve efficiency.

1. French press pot-coarse grinding (5-6 scale of Pegasus bean grinder, visually between yellow sugar and white granulated sugar particles, also similar to yellow sugar)

2. Siphon pot-medium grind (4-5 scale of Pegasus grinder, visually similar to white granulated sugar particles)

3. Hand-made kettle, smart cup-medium fineness grinding (3-4 scale of small Pegasus bean grinder, slightly finer than white granulated sugar visually)

4. Electric drip pot (American coffee machine)-slightly finer than medium fineness (3 scales of small Pegasus grinder, slightly thicker than fine salt visually)

5. Mocha pot, small pressure coffee machine-fine grinding (small Pegasus grinder 1-2 scale, visual grainy)

6. Mainstream household espresso machines-partial fineness grinding (1 scale of small Pegasus grinder, grainy feeling when ground by hand)
