HANDY HINTS
For best flavor, grind coffee beans in an •
airtight container.
Grind coffee beans immediately before •
brewing.
Grinding times will vary depending on •
amount and grind fineness.
To ensure optimal grinding performance, •
allow Coffee Grinder to cool for at least
2 minutes between uses.
Coffee flavor and strength is a personal •
preference. Vary the type of coffee
beans, amount of coffee and fineness of
grind to find the flavor you prefer.
The Conical Burr Grinder will not grind •
food that is sticky or extremely hard
ie. chocolate, cheese, whole nutmeg,
candied fruits, etc.
The Conical Burr Grinder will not make •
pastes of any fruits, seeds or herbs ie.
curry pastes, nut batters.
The Grind (for espresso machines)
When the grind is too fine (feels •
powdery like flour and tends to clump
together when compressed), there is no
space between the grinds for water to
pass through. Not only can this block the
Dual Wall Filter, but the espresso will be
over-extracted, dark and bitter.
When the grind is too coarse (feels •
like granulated sugar), water will pass
through the grinds too quickly, resulting
in espresso that is under-extracted and
lacking flavor.
The perfect espresso grind will produce •
a layer of caramel colored crema that
floats on top of the espresso following
extraction. The grind should feels like
fine sand. When rubbed between your
fingertips it will slightly stain them while
keeping its granular consistency.
