Coffee Grinder With Whole Coffee Beans
By John Cranby
Coffee grinder loaded with your favourite whole coffee beans,
is grinding away to make the best full flavoured freshly grounded
coffee.
You can then take your freshly grounded coffee and place it
in the pot of a coffee maker to make a full flavoured most delicious
cup of coffee. You have not tasted a real cup of coffee, until
you have tasted a full flavored freshly ground cup of coffee.
There are not many places where you can buy whole coffee beans,
as many people do not want to bother with grinding coffee, but
these people miss out on most of the flavours you are rewarded
by grinding your own coffee. A little known fact, is that it only
takes a few seconds to grind your coffee beans with a good quality
coffee grinder.
The Best Whole Coffee Beans In Specialty Coffee Shops
You can review your options and find whole coffee beans in specialty
coffee shops and in some of the larger department stores. But
I find the best coffee beans in shops dedicated to selling the
best coffee beans to use in a coffee grinder.
Taking a few seconds to grind the coffee beans, before placing
the freshly ground coffee in the pot of a coffee maker, is not
too much effort, when you are rewarded with the best full flavoured
coffee every time.
Love The Taste Of Coffee In The Morning, Noon And Night
Americans love their coffee. Some of us drink it morning, noon
and night. If you now use commercially produced coffee which is
already ground, there are a number of coffee manufacturers which
make a more than acceptable brew for everyday use.
The small growers are impinging on their market, with organically
grown varieties of Arabica beans in small, 12-ounce bags of superior
grades of coffee.
Appreciating Better Range Of Flavors And Aroma
Now, you’ll see that the major coffee companies are introducing
their jugs of ground coffee, made of 100% Arabica beans, just
in order to regain their edge in the market. Coffee is big business
and consumers are beginning to appreciate the flavor and aroma
of the smaller grower’s offerings.
Yes, they are a little more expensive, but make a nice weekend
treat. However, there is a way to enjoy this special treat on
a daily basis. From stage left, enters the coffee grinder.
Roasting Green Coffee Beans For The Better Taste
No matter how small your home town, chances are you have a local
coffee shop which sells whole coffee beans. Some shops roast their
own green coffee beans, providing the very freshest product you
can find.
You’d be amazed at the difference between a commercial ground
coffee in a vacuum sealed container and freshly roasted beans.
Even in a vacuum sealed container, much of the original robust
flavor and aroma are lost in the process of roasting, grinding,
packaging and transportation time required before that coffee
end up in your coffee maker.
No matter how good the beans were to begin with, the essential
oils evaporate in all of this processing, resulting in a subsequent
loss of flavor. Let’s see what goes into the perfect cup of coffee.
The coffee grinder plays an essential role.
Making The Best Tasting, Full Flavored Coffee
1. Find a coffee shop which roasts
their own beans in house. With coffee, time is of the essence.
Buy a pound of these freshly roasted beans and a coffee grinder.
You can purchase a good electric grinder for about $20. A coffee
grinder will last for years, so it’s really a small investment
in your favorite daily beverage.
2. Store the coffee beans in the freezer,
with the bag folded shut tightly, with as little air remaining
in the bag as possible. This prevents the loss of those essential
oils, which are at the heart of a superior cup of coffee.
3. When you’re ready to brew, fill
the grinder to the rim with the beans. Put the lid on the coffee
grinder and press down with a pulsating motion, a couple of seconds
on and then off. You’ll be able to see through the clear lid of
the grinder to approximate the fineness of the grind. It takes
but a few seconds to grind the coffee. The amount of beans that
will fit in the bowl of the grinder should be enough to make 4-6
cups, according to your preference.
4. Pour the ground coffee into the
basket of your coffee maker and brew. Fabulous!
Cleaning The Grinder
To clean the grinder, all it takes is a single paper towel to
wipe it out. It’s all ready to go for your next pot. The only
caveat? Don’t use your coffee grinder for any other purpose, such
as grinding herbs. Even though the bowl of the grinder is typically
of stainless steel, it will pick up the flavor of other foods.
Freshly roasted coffee beans, stored airtight in the freezer
and freshly ground for each pot is the perfect recipe for the
very best cup of coffee you’ve ever had!
Keeping Your Coffee Hot All Day With Insulated Coffee Mugs
Now you know the best steps you can take, to make a delicious
cup of coffee every time. Another step you can take, to keep a
warm cup of coffee when you need it, is to have a range of insulated
coffee mugs, to help keep your coffee warm all day.
You can make your coffee with your coffee maker in the morning
and pour the coffee in a number of coffee mugs, and drink from
one coffee mug in the morning, another coffee mug at work and
another insulated coffee mug when you arrive home. All coffee
is maintained at the same temperature as long as you use insulated
coffee mugs.
Making Your Coffee Only Once A Day
Using insulated coffee mugs, means that you do not need to keep
making a new cup of coffee or reheating your pot. By grinding
your coffee beans with a coffee grinder and then making the coffee
with your coffee maker only once a day, helps to keep the taste
and natural flavours of your coffee and avoids overcooking your
coffee.
There is nothing better, than a hot cup of full flavored coffee
whenever you need it!
