coarse grind

Not finely milled

Coarse grind refers to coffee beans or other substances ground into relatively large particles rather than fine powder.

A coarse grind is typically used for French press or cold brew coffee, where longer steeping times extract flavor without over-extraction: Use a coarse grind for your French press.

The term applies similarly to spices, salt, or pepper.
