A simple tutorial on how to grind coffee beans manually

Manual grinding of coffee beans is a traditional method that preserves the original flavor and aroma of the coffee beans. Below is a simple tutorial to help you learn how to grind coffee beans manually.

First, prepare the materials and tools you need. You will need a manual grinder, fresh coffee beans, a scale or measuring cup, and a container to collect the ground coffee. Make sure all tools are clean and free of residue.

Next, put the appropriate amount of coffee beans into the manual grinder. The amount of coffee beans to use depends on your personal taste and preference. Usually, you need to use about 15 grams to 20 grams of coffee powder each time you brew a cup of coffee.

Then, start turning the handle to grind. Different types of manual grinders may have different operating methods. Please follow the instructions in the manual. Apply force evenly during the rotation process and try to maintain a stable speed to obtain uniform and fine powder.

When you are done, check the texture of the resulting ground coffee. If the particle size of the ground coffee is uneven, you can adjust the settings of the grinder appropriately and grind it again. The goal is to obtain a consistent and fine ground coffee to ensure that the water can penetrate evenly when brewing.

Finally, pour the ground coffee into a container and use it as soon as possible. Freshly ground coffee beans will begin to lose their aroma and flavor within a few minutes, so it is best to use them immediately before brewing.

Grinding coffee beans manually requires some patience and skill, but it will give you a purer and more delicious coffee. I hope this simple tutorial helps you!
