Coffee Beans and Grounds
Coffee beans
must be ground and brewed before being able to to create a
cup of coffee.
Grinding the roasted coffee beans is usually done at
source but can also be done in specialist stores or at home
with a Grinder.
Coffee beans
may be ground in several ways. A burr mill uses
revolving elements to crush or tear the bean, an
electric grinder chops the beans with blades moving at
high speeds, and a mortar and pestle grinds the beans to
a powder.
The type of
grind is often named after the brewing method for which
it is generally used. Turkish grind is the finest grind,
while coffee percolator or
cafetiere are the coarsest
grind. The most common grinds are between the extremes;
a medium grind is used in most common home
coffee filter
brewing machines.
