Coffee (#)
„Inconsistency will produce an uneven cup of espresso. As I've discussed in a previous article, electric burr grinders are best at providing the proper grind for your coffee beans.“

„To extract espresso properly it is essential to use a burr grinder and to grind per order. The two major types of burrs used are flat and conical. Conical burrs are desirable because they increase the surface area of each particle and the amount of flavor that can be extracted from the coffee. Since conical burrs have longer cutting edges, the burrs can rotate at lower speeds which reduces the heat created. Flat burrs should be replaced after 600 pounds of coffee have been ground and conical burrs should be replaced after 2000 pounds of coffee have been ground.“

Amazon.com: Kitchen & Housewares: La Pavoni PGB Coffee Grinder, Brass
„I'm quite satisfied with the excellent grind consistency and quality. The brass La Pavoni PGB Coffee Grinder is close to being a commercial grade burr grinder -- equal to those found in Europe's espresso bars and restaurants. Be aware that the brass finish is "plated" over hard plastic, so carefully inspect your new grinder before using it. I had to return mine twice to the retailer back east, before a perfect one arrived.“

Cleaning Your Burr Grinder (INeedCoffee.com)
„Set the grinder for espresso grind, then put a handful of raw, uncooked white rice in the grinder. The result of the first batch will be a salt-and-pepper-looking grind. Keep putting rice through the grinder until it comes out as clean and white as the driven snow.“

Grinding and Brewing Your Coffee
„Plate grinders clog easily but make fairly even grinds. Burr grinders wear down eventually, but result in the most even grind in home devices. The ideal burr grinder is a hand-cranked unit, like the famous German brand Zassenhaus models. I have had bad luck with electric models that need constant care and cleaning, and tend to break anyway.“
