Grinders

Your grinder, in every recipe

Gota writes each recipe's grind on a scale from 1, very fine, to 10, very coarse, and shows it as the setting on your own grinder: clicks on a Comandante, numbers on a Baratza, rotations on a 1Zpresso. These are the 51 grinders it knows, from 18 brands.

How the conversion works

Every recipe in Gota carries a grind level from 1 to 10. Add the grinders you own in the app and each recipe shows that level as a range on your dial: the clicks to count or the number to line up.

The ranges come from the makers' own manuals and brew guides first, and from specialty-coffee references that agree with each other after that. Each grinder says how solid its evidence is, and a setting Gota can't back is left empty, never guessed.

Burrs, beans and taste vary, so a range is a starting point. Brew, adjust, and Gota remembers where you left the dial for each coffee. If your grinder runs finer or coarser, calibrate it with settings of your own.

Gota's ten grind levels

  1. 1
  2. 2 Turkish coffee
  3. 3
  4. 4 Moka pot
  5. 5 Pour-over
  6. 6 Drip
  7. 7 Chemex
  8. 8 French press
  9. 9 Cold brew
  10. 10

The methods sit where the app's grind guide places them. Each recipe sets its own level.
