1. The best cup of coffee comes from beans that are properly ground just before brewing.
2. If using an auto-drip coffee maker, coffee should be ground to a medium grind level.
3. Grinders that are attached to coffee makers are generally more difficult to clean and maintain.
4. A mill or burr grinder is the best way to select the exact coarseness or fineness of your grind.
5. Grinding your coffee with a blade grinder uses less heat which results in more flavorful coffee.
6. When brewing freshly ground beans, most java lovers prefer not to use paper filters. Paper leaves an aftertaste in finished coffee that takes away from the flavor of fresh beans.
