The finer the coffee is ground, the better?-Coffee powder common grinding thickness diagram

There are different brands and types of bean grinders for grinding coffee, and the ideal one is a grinder that can adjust the thickness of the beans. Do not use machete grinder, machete grinder easy to cause uneven thickness. In this way, the coarse powder is not enough to extract the fine powder has been over-extracted. It is conceivable that the coffee brewed in this way must be bitter and astringent, with mixed flavors.

When grinding with a bean grinder, do not grind too much at one time, just enough powder for one time, because the longer the bean grinder is used at one time, the easier it is to heat up, which indirectly causes the coffee beans to be heated in the grinding process and causes the aroma to be released in advance, which will affect the aroma of the steamed coffee. Fresh coffee beans are emerald green and must be roasted and cooked, then ground into powder and brewed before they can become the coffee sold by the store.

Grinding too rough will make the hot water easily pass through the filter paper, and the delicious ingredients of coffee can not be fully extracted. In this way, the coffee from the coffee pot becomes a light, thin liquid.

Each coffee utensil has its own suitable degree of grinding, so we don't use whatever degree of grinding we want. As mentioned above, the coffee powder is too coarse or too fine to make coffee, that is to say, the most suitable grinding degree is medium to medium roughness.

The following is the relationship between the grinding degree of coffee powder and the extraction method:

1. Suitable for fineness grinding: Turkish copper pot, mocha pot, espresso machine.

2. Suitable for medium grinding: filter paper dripping filter, flannel dripping, plug air kettle (also known as siphon kettle).

3. Suitable for roughness grinding: dripping coffee machine, dripping filter pot.
