How Do You Grind Coffee Beans In A Food Processor?
While a coffee grinder works best for grinding coffee, a food processor can be used if nothing else is available. The key to using a food processor is to think small and not grind more than a pot’s worth of coffee at a single time. If your food processor has the smaller insert tub, it can make the job a bit faster and clean up easier. Measure out the amount of roasted coffee beans needed to make a single pot of coffee. Generally 1/4 to 1/3 cup of beans will make a regular-sized pot. Set up your food processor. If the processor does have the smaller insert, be sure to put that in place. Pour in the coffee beans and put the cover on the processor. Pulse the beans until the beans have become a ground powder. The finer the powder, the stronger the coffee will be. Use the coffee grounds in your coffee pot as normal.
