Learn more about the different grinding choices.

Choosing the right coffee grind is crucial to achieving the perfect cup of coffee, as the size of the coffee grounds affects brewing time and flavor extraction. Here’s a guide to the different coffee grinds and their specific uses:

1. Grinding into Grains

  • Description : Whole bean coffee is simply unground coffee. It is sold as whole beans and should be ground just before use to ensure freshness and flavor retention.
  • Usage : Suitable for all preparation methods, but requires a coffee grinder to achieve the desired grind.

2. Espresso grind

  • Description : The espresso grind is fine, almost like powdered sugar. This fineness allows for a fast and intense extraction under high pressure.
  • Usage : Specifically for espresso machines. The high pressure of these machines requires a fine grind for optimal extraction in 25 to 30 seconds.

3. Italian Grind (or Fine Grind)

  • Description : The Italian grind is slightly coarser than the espresso grind. It is still fine, but with a slightly more granular texture.
  • Use : Used for Italian coffee makers (Moka). These coffee makers use pressure but not as much as espresso machines, hence a slightly less fine grind.

4. Grinding Filter

  • Description : Filter grind is medium consistency, similar to granulated sugar. It allows for a slower extraction than espresso.
  • Use : Suitable for filter coffee makers, such as drip machines or manual filters (V60, Chemex type). The particle size allows for a slow infusion that extracts aromas without bitterness.

5. Piston Grind (or Coarse Grind)

  • Description : The piston grind is coarse, with clearly visible coffee particles and a texture similar to coarse salt.
  • Use : Used for French Press coffee makers. The coarse grind prevents particles from passing through the coffee maker's metal filter, allowing for a long infusion that develops aromas without creating sediment.

Tips for Grinding

  • Coffee grinder : Investing in a good coffee grinder, preferably one with burrs, allows you to obtain a uniform grind and easily adjust the particle size depending on the preparation method.
  • Freshness : Grind the coffee just before preparing it to preserve all its freshness and aromas.

Guatemala Geisha coffee beans

Description

This coffee comes from the Monte de Oro farm, located at an altitude of 1,600 meters in the heart of the Acatenango Valley, in the hills of Balam Juyu. The excellent fertility of the soil inspired the name "Monte de Oro" for the farm.
Mario, from a mechanical engineering background, has a point of honor in reducing the use of water in his processes and the cherries are produced at perfect ripeness because he controls their sugar level by measuring the Brix degree.
