Things worth knowing about Coffee
For preparing a good, aromatic coffee, it is important to make
sure that coffee is ground to coarseness which suites to the ap-
propriate coffeemaker.
If the coffee is ground too fine, the coffee will be too strong and
rather bitter while a grind which is too coarse will produce thin,
watery coffee.
Coffee powder, which is ground too coarsely, will not be extract-
ed well and the water will pass through it too fast.
If the coffee is ground too fine, the water will be in the coffee
powder for too long and the coffee will be over extracted and
taste bitter.
Coffee ground too fine may also block the filter; the water may
not flow through the filter, but may flow around the filter without
passing through the coffee.
For a small cup of coffee count about 4 g of grist.
