Freshly Ground Coffee: 7 Reasons Why It is Better than Pre-Ground Coffee
There are two types of people in the world: those who will drink any coffee and be perfectly happy to get a shot of caffeine and those who are particular about having fresh coffee and care about everything from the brewing method, to the temperature of the hot water, to the coffee grounds.Any passionate coffee drinker knows that freshly grounded coffee is the best there is and they have specific reasons why they believe fresh is better than pre-ground. We share seven of these reasons here.
First, it’s important to understand what is meant by “freshly grounded coffee.”
When you purchase coffee, you can either buy whole roasted coffee beans, or buy pre ground coffee that is ready to brew.

This makes them fresher ground, but to really get truly freshly ground beans, you’ll want to do the work at home. This means you need to invest in a bean grinder.
