As a nurse, I can tell you what my first thought was, but no (also walnut would be a terrible material for that).
You're viewing a single thread.
A coffee measuring bowl and a spray bottle for spraying water on your coffee beans, which reduces the static cling that can cause a mess when you’re grinding your own coffee.
how in tf
James Hoffmann has a ceramic one and he’s pretty popular so it’s fair that someone might recognize a wooden one :)
edit: his is from loveramics
I think James uses this- KNODOS Bean Dosing Bowl and RDT Spray.
I have a ceramic one :)
Do you notice a substantial difference? I boil Gatorade to make tea.
Yeah, just a single little spritz really cuts down on the static noticeably, so I can keep everything a lot cleaner without having to actually wipe everything down every time I make coffee
As a coffee nerd, that was way too easy 😅
Spritzing your beans helps reduce the static charge, and you end up with way less retention in the grinder! I love mine haha
Google's AI image search brought the product up instantly for me.
yes but some people are honorable and I do my best to assume that of my participants
I'm sorry if that came off as accusing anyone of cheating. It wasn't my intent.
I enjoy your game and like watching people guess. I have no intention of ruining that by cheating myself either.
Wow spot on
a spray bottle for spraying water on your coffee beans, which reduces the static cling that can cause a mess when you’re grinding your own coffee
This is a great idea! How does it work? Do you most the whole beans pre-grind? Do you need to let them sit for a bit or just go straight to grinding?
Measure the beans, spritz them, maybe shake them around a little to distribute the water, put in grinder. No need to wait. It should be a miniscule amount of water, you don't want your grinder gears to rust.
Thanks very much! Will try this out the next time I grind. I like in the Midwest and we have cold/dry winters. Static makes for a messy grinding experience.
Am I doing something wrong if I do not have this issue? When I grind the beans there appears to be enough... I guess it is fats, in the beans that makes the ground beans quite easy to handle. May like quality of beans or grinder play a role?
No, it's not a universal requirement nor is it particularly determined by the quality of your beans/grinder. Some very expensive grinders have anti-static mechanisms and better grinders typically have less static cling and retention. It's also not so much about handling the grounds as it is about preventing small amounts of grounds from clinging to the inside of the grinder or your dosing cup.
I don’t drink coffee at all, so I was completely mystified.
