Grinding Coffee Beans?
I got a bag of whole coffee beans for a gift but I don't have a coffee grinder. Is there any other way to grind them at home without one? Blender, food processor, Cuisinart?
Thanks!
Order of preference:
1) Burr grinder (even grind size & little heat on the beans)
2) Mortar & Pestle (better than blade, but more work - esp big pots)
3) Blade grinder (doesn't really grind, more like pulverize) in 3-5 second bursts
4) Food processor with blade attachment (just a big blade grinder)
Don't use a blender. It will powder & heat part but leave giant chunks.
