Cuisinart DCG-20 Coffee Grinder User Manual


 
GRINDING SUGGESTIONS:
Some general guidelines for grinding are listed below.
However, times will vary depending upon the amount of
coffee used and your personal preference. The best way
to determine how coarse or fine to grind your coffee is to
experiment with different grinds and coffee types to suit
your taste.
Grind Suggested Use Grind Time
Coarse Percolator/ 10 Seconds
French Press
Medium Automatic Drip 20 Seconds
Fine Espresso 30 Seconds
MEASUREMENT SUGGESTIONS:
For the richest coffee flavor, we suggest using one and
one-half (1-1/2) rounded tablespoons of ground coffee
for every 5 ounces of water. If you have a Cuisinart
®
Coffee Bar
TM
Coffeemaker, the cups are measured in
5-ounce increments.
The measurement markings on the lid indicate
reference measurements.
For example, for automatic drip coffee, if you fill the
lid to the •••• marking with whole beans, you will have
enough ground coffee to reach the •• marking. This
equals enough ground coffee for two 5-oz. cups, using the
Cuisinart recipe.
Note: These markings are approximate. Experiment
with different quantities to determine what works best.
