Blade grinders are totally fine for drip coffee.  I'm not sure you'd notice 
a difference there.  If you're making espresso, the burr grinder is a 
must.  I have to say, for crusty bike tinkerers, Baratza is right in our 
wheelhouse.  All the parts and instructions are online.  I've had mine 
apart dozens of times and upgraded the internals along the way.  As far as 
using a drill with a hand grinder, I'm not sure I see the need to 
reverse-engineer an electric grinder, especially for the amount of coffee I 
grind (a pound + / week).

That's brilliant. I may have to investigate adapting my decent, home-use
electric drill to the Neiko. I say this as one who for decades has happily
drunk coffee made from beans egregiously burnt by 30-second, heavily
smoking intervals in high-speed blade grinders. Fortunately, tea requires
no such manipulation.

Tea! Oh! Oh! Tea! Paul Newman's Own Organic Black Tea, at $7.98 for a box

more teal-like in fact) than Twinings or that other common Brit import.

Is this for home use - lots of beans  - or a single cup when camping?  The

For home grinding where the consistency matters, like with a French Press, 
I use  a Zassenhaus mill.  For pour over with a filter, I usually let the 
small electric mill do the work quickly.  I don't see how heat build up is 
a huge issue but if I were in a laboratory environment with $30/lb beans, I 
wouldn't leave it to chance.  Mainly, the Zassenhaus mill is just 
satisfying to use as a tool, if you have the time to spare.

[RBW] Re: Coffee Grinder Question

2019-06-02 Thread Austin B.
That improvement you taste has less to do with hand grinding than it does 
1) the consistency of the grind that comes from Burr grinding (Lido) vs. 
Blade grinding (Krups) and 2) the lack of heat generated by your Lido as 
compared to your high-speed Krups blade which can affect the taste.

A decent automatic burr grinder will produce a grind comparable to your 
Lido with way less effort but way more noise. The downside is that it will 
eat into your bike funds because they ain't cheap!

I didn't think grind method really mattered as I always used a Krupps.  Out 
of the blue a relative sent me his Lido 2 that he wasn't using anymore as 
bought another grinder that for him was easier .

I make coffee with a 12 cup (hah hah that's 2oz. per cup) aluminum Bialetti 
Moka pot and I use about 1/4c beans that makes for one nice big mug 'o joe. 
My preferred coffee to grind is Seattle's Best #5, dark, smoky and 
luscious. Upon tasting the Lido ground brew my first thought was something 
akin to "well ain't that a kick in the pants, I never tasted* this* from 
the Krupps grind, yummm ! "  Bye bye Krupps. I find the Lido a breeze to 
grind, the key for me was to be creative on how you hold it to your body. 
It's all intuitive. 

For myself it's all about the flavor, and since the hand grind tastes 
notably better, so it is. I've tried lots of brands of whole bean coffee 
and nothing tastes more pleasing to me that SB #5 and I can get it at my 
local Kroger so the bags are always "fresh". 

My brother doesn't care about the grind or any flavor as long as it's *coffee 
and cheap *so he can make a whole drip pot and drink it all day long. 
Everything works for Everybody, and ain't that a kicker !  ;-)

I only have experience with one hand grinder (Hario Skerton) and the time 
to grind gets exponentially longer the finer you are grinding.  
Unfortunately, that specific model doesn't grind well for French press so 
it's relegated to back-up status for the rare power outage.

Do two stages. First one cracks the beans coarsely. It will be quick. 
Second effort grinds to desired level and will be faster since the cracked 
beans flow better than whole beans.
