Marija Barcan 3 years ago

As someone who worked in a coffee shop way too long...it is important to clean out the coffee pot, coffee basket and grinder frequently because the oils from the coffee beans build up and can go rancid and make your coffee taste more bitter.

12points

Earl Grey 3 years ago (edited)

We have a ceramic burr grinder. Over time, the oil from the roasted coffee beans builds up and the dust starts to cake and clog. After removing the mechanical components for cleaning with soap and water, we follow the manufacture’s recommendation and run a cup of white rice through the grinder to absorb the residue and burnish the gears.

If you use it for spices between coffee making it will be spicy smelling. To get rid of that you do as suggested and put rice in it. Hence the need for and utility of the 'hack'

It's a lovely use of space but spices in the light and near heat sources is not a great idea unless you use them up quickly.

This needs explanation for the non-kitchen types. I’m guessing it’s a rather large amount of peeled garlic, pulsed in a food processor then loaded into a freezer bag, pressed flat, then divided by gently using the back of a chefs knife? Then you load it into the freezer where you can then break off a little tsp. sized square when you need one? As a former pro, I’m gonna tell you it’s ok to just use a garlic press…..

Better yet, do it in a mason jar. When you want to make the smoothie, run the jar under warm water for a few seconds to loosen the contents before dumping it in the blender. Then when the smoothie is blended, you can pour it back in the mason jar to drink it. No plastic waste.

This would not work if you want to use 5 different spices and all of them are mixed with salt, you end up with salty food. Spices are a good alternative to salt.
