For brewing on a Moccamaster coffee brewer, the ECBC-approved setting is 5, although you may find your ideal grind to be somewhere in the range of 4-6. We recommend a medium-coarse grind, which should look like rough sand or coarse sea salt.
The Moccamaster KM5 Burr Grinder contains a powerful, direct-drive motor that grinds coffee quickly and efficiently, and its static-reducing dispensing spout creates a mess-free grinding experience. The stepless knob allows for the finest adjustment of the 50 mm flat steel burrs, providing a precise, uniform grind at the exact size you need for a range of brewing methods. One of the few grinders certified by the European Coffee Brewing Centre, the quality and uniformity of the grind is guaranteed for perfect extraction.

A coffee grinder approved by the European Coffee Brewing Centre (ECBC) must produce consistent, high-quality coffee grounds. The ECBC evaluates coffee grinders across criteria ranging from grinding quality to ease of use. These criteria include:
GRINDING TEMPERATURE
A coffee's quality can degrade if heated during the grinding process. Grinders must keep the coffee at a consistent temperature, never heating it.
CONSISTENT GRIND SIZE
For even extraction while brewing, the grinder must produce grounds in uniform particle size with minimal variations.
GRIND SIZE DISTRIBUTION
The grinder must produce a consistent grind size at all settings – from fine to coarse.
REPEATABILITY
The grinder must reproduce the exact same results grind after grind.
The ECBC-approved KM5 Burr Grinder meets these criteria with every use, producing perfect grounds that reveal the real taste of coffee as the grower and roaster intended.
