Hand-grinded beans to release the aroma of coffee

Coffee is a must-have drink for many people every morning. It not only refreshes the mind, but also has a rich aroma and unique taste. Hand-grinding beans is one of the important steps in making a cup of delicious coffee. By hand-grinding beans, we can release more aroma and flavor contained in coffee beans, bringing us a richer coffee experience.

Choose the right grinder

Before you start grinding beans manually, you first need to choose a suitable grinder. There are many types and brands of coffee machines available on the market. The most common and cost-effective ones are manual blade or cone blade.

The blade type is mainly suitable for coarse powder or medium-fine powder; the cone-shaped blade can be adjusted to various degrees of fineness to meet different taste requirements.

Keep it fresh

In order to keep the best flavor and aroma of the coffee beans, we need to store the coffee beans in a dry, cool place and avoid direct sunlight as much as possible. In addition, it is best to use the coffee beans immediately after fresh roasting, because the aroma in the coffee beans will gradually lose over time.

Adjust the grinding degree

Different types and brands of coffee machines have different requirements for the grind size required. Generally speaking, coarse grinds are suitable for brewing coffee machines (such as French presses), while fine grinds are suitable for espresso machines.

By adjusting the grinding degree, you can control the contact area between water and coffee and the time for water to pass through, thus affecting the taste and flavor of the extracted coffee. Therefore, when grinding coffee beans manually, you should make reasonable adjustments according to your preferences and the type of coffee machine you are using.

Maintain uniformity

When grinding beans by hand, we need to maintain uniformity to ensure that each particle is processed to the same degree. This will make the taste of the coffee more balanced and consistent.

To achieve this goal, we can use a manual grinder and operate it with appropriate force and speed. In addition, we can try different grinding methods (such as rotation, shaking, etc.) to find the method that suits us best.

Enjoy the aroma of coffee

Manual grinding is a process that requires patience and skill, but it is also a very interesting and worthwhile area to explore. By manually grinding the beans, we can release more aroma and flavor contained in the coffee beans and experience more layers of deliciousness when tasting.

Therefore, in your daily life, you might as well take some time to experience the joy of hand-grinding beans and enjoy a cup of coffee that is truly fresh, delicious and full of attractive aroma.
