Usage of hario bean grinder-how to adjust the thickness of Japanese hand bean mill

Bean grinders are often directly ignored in coffee recruits! This is a really sad fact! Many novices buy coffee powder directly in the supermarket. But friends with a little common sense will know that the shelf life of coffee after roasting is very short. It is generally recommended that freshly baked beans should be drunk within 1 month! Because in a month's time, the elements in the beans that can bring you the ultimate flavor will be quickly lost. Coffee ground into powder oxidizes faster because of its larger contact area with air. Generally speaking, 15 minutes after grinding is enough to turn the original boutique coffee into waste. That's why some people or merchants always advertise that our coffee is freshly ground coffee! Although sometimes those merchants themselves do not understand why they want to grind!

Some friends here will say, as long as it is not grinding right now!? I bought a few dozen yuan of spiral bean grinder on Taobao and now I can OK it. In fact, as long as your beans are good enough and fresh enough, it must be much better than buying coffee powder directly to brew and extract! But you still waste coffee beans! A spiral bean chopper (we call it a bean chopper because this machine crushes beans by chopping rather than grinding) not only can't process coffee beans into uniform coffee powder, but also generates a lot of heat in the process of chopping. Coffee powder accelerates the oxidation process when heated. The flavor will also be taken away! In addition, under the first principle of successful extraction of boutique coffee (uniform extraction), because the coffee powder particles chopped by the chopping machine are coarse and fine, it will also lead to the failure of coffee extraction! The most direct is excessive extraction, or insufficient extraction! The coffee with insufficient extraction will be sour and astringent, and the coffee with excessive extraction will be too bitter!

So my last suggestion is, in the case of fixed beans, first set the amount of powder, and then find the powder thickness, and then use a more shaky strength to find the feel, obedience should be the highest but also this point, I think it can most increase the shaking, when you use counterbalance beans, find a good scale, determine the amount of powder, press the powder with a force that you think is more comfortable, if you can make a decent cup of esp Then the foundation is done. The reason why it is said that the strength of the powder to adjust can increase wavering, because the scale and the amount of powder, as well as beans because of the situation to produce a small amount of poison. And this poison, in most cases, it is necessary to rely on the weight of pressing powder to improve the shaky extraction results, which is the largest variable, because our bodies are not instruments, and the strength of pressing powder depends on the feel of the hand. There is no feel for beginners.
