Coffee bean grinding degree grading: explore the fresh taste, 5 levels bring you a new experience!

Explore the five levels of coffee bean grind

Coffee is a widely loved drink around the world, and the grinding degree of coffee beans is one of the important factors that affect the taste and flavor of coffee. Different degrees of grinding will bring different tastes and aromas. In order to let everyone better understand the grinding degree classification of coffee beans, we will introduce five levels and bring you a new experience.

1. Coarse powder

Coarse grinds are beans with a larger maximum particle diameter, a relatively smooth surface, and a loose texture. This degree of grind is suitable for brewing methods with longer times, lower water temperatures, or slower filtration rates. Because the particles are relatively large, water flows more easily when in contact with them, allowing the water to better contact the coffee particles and extract the rich aromas in them.

2. Medium fine powder

Compared with coarse powder, medium-fine powder has a smaller diameter and a relatively smooth surface. This degree of grinding is suitable for brewing methods with shorter time, higher water temperature or faster filtration rate. Because the particles are relatively small, water is less fluid when in contact with them, but it can better contact with the coffee particles and extract the rich aroma.

3. Medium finely chopped

Compared with medium-fine powder, the diameter of the particles is reduced again, and the surface begins to have irregular shapes. This degree of grinding is suitable for making espresso or espresso (ESPResso). Because the particles are more uniform and dense, they will produce more reactions when water passes through under high pressure, and release more complex and deep aromas.

4. Finely chopped

Finely ground coffee beans are very fine, uniform in texture and slightly shiny. This level of grinding is also suitable for making espresso or espresso. Because the particles are very small, water has very weak fluidity when it comes into contact with them, and can better contact with the coffee particles and extract the richest aroma.

5. Very finely chopped

Extra fine ground coffee beans are extremely small, uniform in texture and have a distinct oily feel. This level of grinding is also suitable for making espresso or espresso. Because the particles are very small, water can hardly flow when it comes into contact with them, allowing water to fully penetrate each particle and release the most complex and full aroma.

Conclusion

Through the introduction of different levels of grinding, we can see that different degrees of grinding will bring completely different tastes and flavors. Choosing the right grinding degree can be adjusted according to personal preferences and brewing methods. I hope this article can help you better understand the grinding degree grading of coffee beans and bring a new experience when tasting coffee.
