  • Question
    Will putting the beans in the blender damage the blender?
    Community Answer
    It may dull the blade, or if one gets stuck it could run down the motor. Use a food processor instead.
  • Question
    To what consistency should the coffee beans be ground?
    Community Answer
    To a slightly grainy powder. The grounds should be gritty when held in a bunch. When you rub a small amount between your fingertips, it should feel slightly coarse.
  • Question
    Do I still use a coffee filter after I crush the beans, or just place them in the filter of the pot?
    Community Answer
    If you normally use a coffee filter when making coffee in your pot, continue using a filter. Nobody likes grinds in their coffee.

    How about a Ninja or Bullet?

    You can try these methods, but they likely will not grind the coffee as small as you need it to.
