Coffee grinder update ()

by fluffy at 4:17 PM
So, I finally got myself one of the portable hand-crank burr grinders. It does in fact make a much nicer grind than the mill grinder, although there's still enough powder that there's a bit of sludge at the bottom of the cup (when using my current filter setup). It's not nearly as bad as it was with the mill grinder though.

I do still want a better filter than the Finum Teeli filter I've been using. The mesh holes are fine for tea but they're a little too big for coffee. Still, it makes an excellent brew. Maybe I'll try bringing my French press in.

We did start getting pre-ground coffee at work, but I'm still using my burr grinder and beans from home, because the pre-ground coffee is terrible (not to mention WAY too finely-ground for anything other than paper filters).
