coffee grinder

Bean crushing appliance

A coffee grinder is a device for crushing roasted coffee beans into grounds suitable for brewing.

Manual grinders use a hand crank; electric grinders use spinning blades or burrs.

The grind size—from coarse to fine—affects how the coffee extracts: Espresso requires a much finer grind than French press.
