Coffee Grinders FAQs

Why is a coffee grinder important?

A coffee grinder is essential for brewing the freshest coffee. Grinding beans just before brewing preserves the rich aroma and taste, unlike pre-ground coffee, which can lose flavour.

With a grinder, you control the coarseness, allowing you to perfect any brew method.

What's the difference between conical & flat burr grinders?

Conical burr grinders have cone-shaped burrs, providing consistent grind size and less heat buildup, ideal for home use. Flat burr grinders use parallel burrs, offering precise, uniform grinds, often preferred by professionals. Both types ensure better flavour extraction compared to blade grinders. If you're aiming for control and quality, conical burr grinders are great for all-around brewing, while flat burr grinders excel in fine-tuning grind consistency for espresso.

Which coffee grinder is best for espresso?

For the best espresso grinder, I'd recommend the Comandante Coffee Grinders. They're a high-precision manual grinder known for its stainless steel burrs that offer consistent and uniform grinds, essential for espresso. The level of control it provides over grind size makes it an excellent option for brewing espresso at home or out and about. If you prefer an electric option, the Sage Smart Grinder Pro is also a solid choice, offering 60 grind settings.

Can I use my coffee grinder to grind nuts?

Using a coffee grinder to grind nuts is not ideal. Coffee grinders are designed for dry, brittle coffee beans, and the oils from nuts can clog the burrs or blades, leading to inconsistent grinds and potential damage. Instead, use a food processor or dedicated nut grinder for better results. If you use your coffee grinder for nuts, be sure to clean it thoroughly to prevent flavour transfer.

Are coffee grinders easy to clean?

Cleaning a manual coffee grinder is straightforward - simply disassemble it and use a brush to remove leftover grounds. Electric grinders are also easy to clean, but often require unplugging and wiping down burrs or blades with a brush. Regular cleaning prevents old coffee residue from affecting flavour. Both types may require deeper cleaning occasionally to maintain optimal performance. Always check your grinder’s manual for specific instructions on cleaning and maintenance.

Which coffee grinder should I buy?

The best coffee grinder depends on your brewing method and budget. For espresso lovers, a burr grinder like the Comandante offers precise control over grind size. If you want versatility for French press or drip coffee, an electric grinder with multiple settings, like the Baratza, is ideal. Manual grinders are great for portability and consistency, while electric grinders excel in speed and convenience. Choose based on your brewing style and daily needs.
