How do I know what grind to use?

To ensure you are getting the best out of your coffee, you must ensure you are using the correct grind for your preferred brew method. In general terms, the shorter the brew method, the finer the grind you will need. Here is a grind key for common brew methods:

  • #2 – Turkish (XX-Fine)
  • #3 – Espresso (Extra-Fine)
  • #4 – Melita Pour-Over (Fine)
  • #5 – Drip Machine (Most Common)
  • #6 – Chemex (Medium)
  • #7 – French Press / Gold Filter (Coarse)
  • #9 – Percolator (Extra Coarse)
