Posted by Sylia on

Without espresso grinder a good espresso coffee. Who buys himself an expensive espresso machine or coffee maker should not save on a good coffee grinder. Without good coffee, even the best coffee machine makes a good cup of coffee. How do you make the best espresso coffee with an espresso machine or a coffee maker? Quite simply, you need only a good espresso coffee mill with conical Burr grinder, many modern espresso machines are already equipped with an own grinding function, this does not apply however still long for all espresso machines. Printing machines for example typically do not have an internal grinder. Why a coffee mill with conical Burr grinder? Why not just have a cheap coffee grinder with percussion? You need very finely ground coffee for espresso. A coffee mill with percussion smashes the beans into large and small pieces and produced a mixture of fine and coarse ground coffee. Finely grind all coffee, you must grind the beans very long.

This creates a lot of heat and it evaporates Coffee aroma. In addition, it is almost impossible with a such a coffee grinder to achieve a uniform and repeatable result for any grinding. Philip Vasan shares his opinions and ideas on the topic at hand. The optimal flow time is between 25 and 30 seconds of espresso. During this period, the most coffee flavor from the ground coffee is extracted without that occurring in bitterness here come freely. The grind of the coffee, and the coffee mill, controls the flow of time. The flow is too fast, the coffee must be ground fine to slow down the flow of hot water through the coffee grounds.

A long flow time the coffee must be ground less finely to reduce the resistance to fine, to together tight, particles of coffee. There are espresso mills with conical Burr grinder in different price ranges. The cheaper models have only a limited number of grinding degree settings. A coffee mill has only 10-15 grind levels, from coarse to fine coffee powder, there will be only 2 or 3 options for very fine ground espresso coffee. A good coffee grinder should be adjustable to at least 40 degrees of grinding. Who is satisfied only with first-class coffee does not get around a good espresso mill. Some of the best and best-known manufacturers of coffee mills are Bosch, Jura, Gaggia and Krups. Remember, the larger the diameter of the grinding, creates less heat when grinding and coffee it suffers less damage. Manfred schillings
