Coffee Grind Consistencies for Your Brew

There are so many different ways to brew coffee, but it really does matter what type of grind consistency that you use. If your coffee grind is too coarse or too fine, it could cause over or under extraction, resulting in a bitter or watery taste.

• Very fine grind: Turkish Coffee
• Fine grind: Espresso
• Medium grind: Drip Brew Coffee
• Coarse grind: French Press
• Very coarse grind: Percolator

With these simple guidelines, you can set yourself up for success in premium coffee brewing, no matter what method you choose. As a rule of thumb, it's always best to use one rounded teaspoon of fresh coffee grounds for every 6 ounces of water. You can tweak this ratio for an even stronger brew to your preference!
