„having made a few toddy coffees in my time, i'd suggest using a coarser ground than espresso grind. i've always been told the longer the brewing time, the coarser the grind. you mentioned seattle's best (now owned by starbucks...eeek)- their best-selling drink is a Naughty Toddy, Gloria Jean's is a Hotty Toddy- all use Toddy's process. i've asked managers at both places, and they use a medium roast, coarse grind- sorta like what you would use in an old fashioned percolator.“

Coffee Buying Tips, Coffee Grinding Tips
„If the cycle takes longer than six minutes, grind your coffee coarser. When using a French press, the coffee will need to be ground extremely coarse. Espresso requires an extremely fine grind...almost powder-like with a slight grittiness. The key to the proper espresso grind is the extraction time.“

„Grinding should always be done moments before brewing as it creates a greater surface area thus speeding up oxidation. My experience is that french press requires a coarser grind than conventional brewing, as I once created a pot of muddy mess by finely grinding the beans.“

„Traditional filter brewing machines just use gravity to push the water through the coffee grounds. Espresso machines, on the other hand, use a pump to force the water through at 9 bars of pressure (but you know that - you read about it in the first edition!).Typically a filter brew will take 4-6 minutes to extract the liquor whereas espresso is brewed in just 20-25 seconds. Control of this brew time is of paramount concern to ensure great tasting espresso and the correct crema.“

Espresso! My Espresso! An Ongoing Internet Novel - CHAPTER
„I immediately tossed that down the sink (cheers, garbage disposal!), and tried again with a grind set two clicks coarser on the Rocky. This pulled in about 22 seconds or so (time counted in my head this AM), it had crema that filled about 3/4 of the shots in the beginning, the crema separated in a beautiful upwards cascade of color and dynamic action, and the double was delicious. This straight espresso had just a hint of bitterness.“
