Which grind is best for espresso?
When it comes to coffee grind sizes, for espresso we recommend grinding your coffee to an extra fine consistency, like powdered sugar. The most fine end of the scale you can reach, if you’re using a coffee grind chart. However, if your coffee is ground too coarse, your extraction will be suboptimal, meaning that you end up with a watery, sour cup that lacks sweetness and complexity. On the other hand, finer grounds have a much higher surface area, which makes extraction quicker and easier.Start out by discovering your grind in proportion to your brewing method—coarse for slow brewing times, fine for quick ones. Make small adjustments afterward based on taste: finer if your coffee is sour, coarse if it is bitter.
