We Recommend: Grind Your Own Coffee (with a Burr Grinder if You Can)

For the best flavor and freshness, we always recommend grinding your own coffee — and if possible, using a burr grinder. It's going to smell heavenly and you'll feel like you really earned it!

Here’s why it matters:

  • Maximum Freshness: Coffee starts losing its best flavors within minutes after grinding.
  • Better Flavor: Grinding just before brewing preserves the coffee’s full aroma and taste.
  • More Control: Adjust your grind size (fine, medium, coarse) depending on your brew method.

Why a Burr Grinder?

  • Burr Grinders: Provide a more consistent grind, helping you brew a smoother, more balanced cup.
  • Blade Grinders: More affordable and still a good option, though they produce a less even grind.

Bottom Line:
Grind your coffee any way you want — the most important thing is that it’s fresh and it tastes great to you!
