Can I grind coffee beans real thin
1637905
I am mentioning coffee beans but actually, I am planning on grinding dehydrated vegetables and they are about the consistency of the coffee beans. I need the bur grinder to do it real thin, almost volatile. I also need a big compartment to throw the veggie chips, like between one to two cup capacity... The regular coffee grinder only takes small amounts at a time.

In a word, No. And it does clog frequently. Sometimes the beans "bridge" and don't drop in mid grind. No way of telling how much you need to grind once you get the beans loose. Would not buy again, ever.

yes. the grinder can be used to grind anything, even dried spices, that is large enough to need grinding. you will have to clean the grinder after each use or before grinding coffee beans, so that your coffee doesn't taste off.

You can buy these empty capsules and simply use whatever coffee flavor / beans that you choose. Just make sure to properly grind the beans correctly.

not too fine; drip grind is too fine - you'll end up with coffee soup. Try using percolator grind setting if you have it.

From my experience with only grinding for one pot of coffee per day, I don't think that the container to hold the ground coffee is large enough to hold a full grind of the beans from the top container. My guess is that you would have to do it in two or three batches and that would take a few minutes.

Yes. The product will work just fine for coffee bean grinding. I use it to produce snus which is a powdered form of tobacco dip. In fact, you can use it to produce cayenne pepper power, etc. as well.

Try using a most coarse grind and more coffee. i use 70 grams per pot, which is almost 9 grams per cup.

The smallesThe smallest amount you can grind is for 2 cups; if you don't grind I would imagine you could brew a single cup but that defeats the purpose of fresh ground coffee. The aroma from a fresh grind is unbelievable. I make 2 cups in the morning.

This has an adjustable knob under the handle which allows you to adjust the corseness. It can be very corse or very fine, but you will probably have fine powder either way (just less corse ground). You will get a workout grinding your coffe!

I think it might be ok. I used it to grind cardamom seeds and it was great. The grind wheel is adjustable so you should be ok. I don't think it would work for coffee beans or anything of that size

Start with whole beans and grind them yourself. I have a burr grinder and set it for a fine grind. I only grind enough for several days. This way I get the freshest coffee every day. I fill the filter to about 1/4" from the top, but do not compact the grounds. This works great for me.

Weigh and grind what you need completely, remove the empty bean holder, and use a brush to clean the burrs and chamber. Mainly an issue for finer grinds. For drip coffee, the finest of the coarse settings works, and tipping the grinder while it finishes grinding and giving it a slap empties the chamber. That won't work for finer grinds, and you'll need a brush. The brush provided is inadequate, so you'll have to buy one.

I use Costco Columbian whole beans, which is a medium roast. Then grind only as much as I use for a day.

Unfortunately, I've only ground coffee in my grinder. The coffee grinds that result are close to the size of sugar particulates, so I would venture to say no. Your best bet is to contact the manufacture for a definitive answer.

My answer to your question is yes. This device works very well and grinds the coffee to the very last bean and does so according to your setting....and it is not hard at all to adjust the grind to your liking. You have to use a little elbow grease, but the result is great.

You want expresso grind to be powder like and feel smooth between your fingers. If your beans are freshly roasted you can try one step less fine because the beans have a little more moisture in them. Really fresh ground beans should brew with some "crema" brown foam on top. That amount of crema is a clue to freshness. Different beans with different roast times also can change the "best" grind setting. Experiment, LOL
