How can I compare coffee grinders in a useful tasting trial?
Use the same coffee batch, water and brewing method. Record the roast date, dose, burrs, speed and grind setting, then dial in each grinder for your recipe. Taste several brews and compare the flavours you enjoy, along with adjustment, preparation and cleaning. Grind-setting numbers differ between models, so dial each one in separately.
