Grinding Fineness
•
Coffee loses its aroma quickly after grinding. To get the best
out of the coffee beans, we recommend that you grind them
just before brewing - preferably by hand. The advantage of
manual coffee mills is that the grinding
fi
neness can generally
be in
fi
nitely set and therefore adjusted more precisely, and
the coffee mills are also easier to clean, which means that it is
possible to switch between different types of coffee without
any problem.

The grinding
fi
neness is one of the decisive factors. If it is
too
fi
ne, the coffee is over-extracted and becomes bitter. In
addition, the coffee powder is compacted too much. If it is
too coarse, not enough aromas are released into the water.
The grinding
fi
neness needs to be coarser than for an es-
presso machine. The ideal grinding
fi
neness is between that
for
fi
ne espresso and that for a manual
fi
lter. The grain size
of table salt can act as a guide. If you want to be on the safe
side, let a barista that you trust grind a small portion of the
beans and use this as a comparison when grinding at home.
You can become a barista with our manual
BEEM GRIND-2-
GO coffee grinder.
The coffee grinder impresses in particular
because it is easy to operate and simple to clean. In addition, the
container is made from elegant stainless steel and can hold up
to 40 g of coffee beans. The high-quality ceramic conical grinding
mechanism produces only a small amount of heat, so grinding
does not make your coffee bitter. The coffee grinder and our
espresso pot are also ideal if you are travelling as you can easily
store and carry both of them with you in the space-saving cotton
bag that is also supplied.
