freshly ground flavor bomb
The secret of a good cup of coffee is quite complex. For example, the flavors and aroma arise from oxidation and the oils in the bean . When grinding, the oxidation process starts and the oils are released. It goes without saying that at that moment you can deliver a real flavor bomb. Don't wait too long, because after a few minutes the magical moment is already over!

Got a taste for it?
Below we offer some suggestions for those considering their own mill. There are different types of grinders, from manual to electric - both freestanding and integrated into your machine. Whichever coffee grinder you choose, always make sure it is clean and dry.
Hand mill
Want to really experience that feeling of freshly ground coffee? A hand grinder is perfect for slow coffee , because you literally have everything under your control. Additional advantage: can go anywhere! Moreover, you don't hear it, so you can make your morning coffee in complete silence.

Separate electric coffee grinder
An electric grinder next to your coffee machine is useful if you drink more coffee. There is a lot of choice here. From a budget-friendly pulse control such as this Bosch or Bodum Bistro where you determine the grinding degree according to the principle; the longer you grind, the finer the coffee.
To electric grinders with a range of settings , such as the Melitta Molino , Wilfa Balance or Sage the Dose Control . These types of grinders have a better grinding mechanism that gets the best out of the beans.
Semi- or fully automatic coffee machine
A perfect cup of coffee at the touch of a button ? Choose a fully automatic coffee machine with an integrated grinder. We recommend these: Delonghi Magnifica (espresso) or Melitta Aromafresh (filter).
For those who enjoy the piston experience, the Sage Barista Express is a great option. This semi-automatic espresso machine also looks great in your kitchen.
One last tip
Store your coffee properly; cool (at room temperature), dark and airtight . It is best to use the original packaging, because our resealable bags are specially made to keep the coffee fresh. Push the air out for a moment before closing them. Then your Ray & Jules coffee beans will remain the tastiest!
