FAQ
What is the difference between a stepped grinder like the Guatemala and a stepless grinder?
A stepped grinder, like the Guatemala, has preset grind settings, while a stepless grinder offers continuous, adjustable grind fineness.
The main advantage of a stepped grinder is its simplicity—switching between grinds, like from drip to French press, is quick and easy. However, it limits you to the preset grind ranges, unlike a stepless grinder, which offers full flexibility.
Quality stepped grinders, like the Guatemala, cover most common brewing methods, making them ideal for standard use and quick adjustments.
What is the difference between a flat burr grinder like the Guatemala and a conical burr grinder?
Flat and conical burr grinders are popular choices for professional coffee grinding, each offering distinct results. Flat burr grinders produce uniform particle sizes, enhancing smooth, well-rounded flavors. In contrast, conical burr grinders create a bimodal particle distribution, highlighting brighter, juicier flavors. While flat burr grinders are often favored for their consistency, conical burrs can lead to over-extraction and bitterness. Despite this, some coffee shops prefer the unique flavor balance that conical grinders can provide.
Does burr size affect the coffee?
The size of a grinder's burrs affects heat production, which impacts coffee quality. Larger burrs generate less heat as they rotate fewer times to grind the beans, reducing friction and preventing bitterness. The Guatemala grinder, with its 71mm precision burrs, is designed to minimize heat buildup and maintain a cool grinding process.
