Grinding

The next step is grinding, but at the same time consideration must be given to which filtering and brewing methods will be chosen. Ground coffee is graded by the size of the pulverized bean. The grind determines the rate water passes through the coffee. Too coarse means watery coffee, too fine causes bitterness. It is best to use a blade grinder or burr-type grinder.

Grind can be classified as:
1) Coarse
2) Medium
3) Fine
4) Pulverized
