How should I dial in my grinder when brewing with Aiden?

Watch this short video for guidance on how to dial in your grinder to brew with Aiden. It walks through grind size, maximum dosage, and how to think about roast variation.

If you’re grinding on an Opus or an Ode Gen 2 we recommend starting with the grind settings below as starting points. Generally, the larger the batch size, the coarser you will want to grind. Start off coarse, and keep grinding finer until you reach astringency.

Grinder Single Brew Small Batch & Cold Brew Large Batch Brew
Ode Gen 2 5 + 1/3 tick marks 8 10
Opus 6.5 (the middle tick mark) 8 10.5 (the middle tick mark)

Single brew: 0-3 cups (150 - 450mL)
Small batch: 3-5 cups (451 - 750mL)
Large batch: 5-10 cups (751 - 1,500mL)
