Have you ever thought about buying a grinder for your home and don't know how to choose one?

-

Having the possibility of preparing your coffee freshly ground will be a great leap in the quality of your coffees and that is why we advise you to take into account the following:

First you will have to define your budget, this will be the key to make your choice.


Second, know whether you are looking for an espresso grinder or a filter grinder, as these work differently and it is advisable to buy a grinder designed for the method you are looking for.


Tercero deberás plantearte si necesitas que ese molino sea manual o automático, esto es importante porque por ejemplo, un mazzer omega es un molino manual fantástico, el cual te permite moler tanto para filtro como espresso, pero en el caso de espresso, al ser una molienda muy fina este tardará mucho tiempo y necesitarás de mucho esfuerzo para poder moler una pequeña cantidad. 


Por último, tomar en cuenta que tan fácil es ese molino de desarmar y limpiar sus muelas, ya que unas muelas limpias te darán siempre una mejor molienda por lo tanto una mejor extracción.

If you want to learn about the different equipment and tools you need to prepare your espressos at home, we invite you to sign up for our Espresso Workshop.
