Whole beans or pre-ground?
Coffee deteriorates much faster once it is ground, making whole beans the ideal way to purchase coffee. If you don't have a grinder though, all good!
Grind Guide
Whole Beans - not ground, you have your own grinder
Commercial Espresso - very fine for a commercial espresso machine
Home Espresso - quite fine for a domestic espresso machine
Stovetop - fine for percolator / moka pot
Pour Over - medium for pour over or aeropress
Plunger - course for plunger / french press
Batch Brewer - very course for Moccamaster and other batch brewers
