How to Grind Coffee Beans for Espresso

How to Grind Coffee Beans for Espressoの手順についてポイントを解説します。初心者でも安心のガイドをチェックしてください。

Don’t use a mortar and pestle. I saw a video of someone doing that for espresso. No. Just no. Also, don’t stick your grinder in the freezer. Cold beans are brittle and shatter, creating fines that clog your basket. Store beans in a cool, dark cabinet. Room temperature is fine.

And for the love of caffeine, don’t buy a blade grinder. I know they’re cheap. I know your aunt gave you one for Christmas. Use it for spices. Use it for pesto. Do not use it for espresso. You will cry.

Finally, be patient. Your first few shots will suck. My first shot tasted like burnt tires and regret. But I tweaked the grind, tried again, and suddenly—the heavens opened. A perfect, slow pour. Crema like thick honey. I nearly wept, and I’m not ashamed to say it.

So go, my friend. Grind finer. Taste everything. And when you nail that shot, drink it slow. You earned it. Now, go make some coffee.
