CoffeeKid - The Vacuum Brewer FAQ (#)
„Further guidelines: For cloth filtering devices, use a grind slightly finer than auto drip; for metal filters (non mesh), use an auto drip grind; for metal filters (mesh) use a coarser grind, close to a press pot grind; for paper filters, use an auto drip grind; and for glass filters, use a grind halfway between auto drip and French press. The Bodum Santos Electric (or Starbucks Utopia) can use a very fine grind, but it also can overstress the filter, breaking it prematurely.“

„If the drip cycle takes less than four minutes, grind your coffee finer. If it takes more than six minutes, grind your coffee coarser. If you're using a French press or percolator, the coffee should be ground coarse. And to get the best flavor in an espresso, the beans should be ground very fine, almost power-like with a slight grittiness. “

„A blade grinder is possible for non espresso drinks but cannot provide the consistency or cut necessary for other than an occasional lucky espresso shot. Consider a blade grinder a last resort for non-espresso, and don't consider it at all if a top grade cup of coffee or espresso shot is what you are seeking.“

„There's a lot of good grinders on the market today that do the job they are assigned - providing an even grind at various levels of fineness needed for a specific brewing job. The key is only burr grinders will do, and some burr grinders aren't as good as others.“

„Symptom: My pour is coming out of the machine too quickly, I am getting two ounces in 12 seconds. (Conversely, it is too slow and is drip, drip, dripping out. Your grind needs to be adjusted to get a good elapsed time for your shot. Symptom: My pour is very dark brown with large bubbles in it and the crema doesn't last very long.“
