In general, brewing methods with shorter water contact times, such as espresso or moka pot, require a finer grind size. Conversely, longer and slower brewing methods, like french press or percolator, are best suited to a coarser grind.
Grind size affects how quickly water extracts flavor from the coffee grounds. Here's a breakdown of different grind sizes and their impact:
Fine Grind: More surface area is explosed, leading to higher extraction rates.
Coarse Grind: Less surface area is exposed, resulting in slower extraction.
Shorter brew time = finer grind
Longer brew time = coarser grind
Roast Level: Darker roasts require a coarser grind due to their degraded cellular structure, making them more soluble. Light roasts need a finer grind.
