ABOUT GRINDING COFFEE

The proper grind gives the most flavorful cup of coffee. The grind size and amount depend 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 espresso machine extraction is much finer than coffee to be brewed in a drip system.
Coffee that is ground too fine for a particular brewing process - (for example, fine espresso grind used in a filter 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 correct grind is used, adding more coffee simply makes a brew stronger without making it bitter.
In addition to providing a range of grind settings, coffee grinders provide a consistent grind. This is important to ensure the extraction is consistent across all of the ground coffee particles.
