Description
Grinding fresh with a quality burr grinder is the largest contributing factor to making better coffee. To ensure your consistently produce a great tasting cup, burrs need to be cleaned frequently, after every 30-50 cups or so, or at least once a month. Burrs need to be replaced as soon as your coffee begins to taste dull, or you notice a difference in the quality of your grinds.Depending on how hard the beans are, how frequently you grind and how fine your typically grind, burrs can last around 3-5 years. Light roasts are much harder than dark roasts and will wear down burrs faster too. Fine grinding for espresso reduces a burrs lifespan more than courser grinds like pour over or AeroPress.5 signs your coffee grinder burrs need replacing.The following burrs are available for the Chestnut C, C3, C3 Pro, G1.
