Handy Hints for Grinding Coffee Beans, Herbs and Spices
Grinding Coffee Beans
•For a good cup of coffee only grind the amount you need for immediate use, as ground coffee quickly loses its flavour and aroma.
•With the Sunbeam MultiGrinder II™ coffee beans can be ground to a very fine grind or a coarse grind. The required coffee grind will be determined by the brewing method used. The different brewing methods include:
BREWING METHOD | GRIND |
Turkish coffee | Very fine grind |
Electronic espresso machine | Fine grind |
Stovetop espresso or filter | Medium grind |
Plunger or percolator | Coarse grind |
|
|
•Do not leave coffee beans or grounds in the open air, always store them in an airtight container.
Grinding Herbs and Spices
•For very hard herbs and spices, we recommend processing in ¼ cup batches to prevent overloading the grinder.
