The proper grind gives the most
flavorful cup of coffee. The grind
depends on the method by which the
coffee is to be brewed. Generally, the
finer the grind the more quickly the
coffee should be prepared. That is why
coffee ground for use in an espresso
machine is much finer than coffee to
be brewed in a drip system.
Coffee that is ground too fine for a
particular brewing process – (fine
espresso grind used in an automatic
drip coffee machine) will result in
over-extraction and bitter, pungent
tasting coffee. Conversely, coffee that
is too coarse for a particular brew
method will result in under-extraction
and weak, watery coffee. If the cor-
rect grind is used, adding more coffee
simply makes a brew stronger without
making it bitter.
In addition to providing a number of
grind settings, coffee mills provide a
consistent grind. This is important to
ensure the extraction is consistent
a c r oss all of the ground coffee particles.
