How long will it take to grind 8 tablespoons of coffee beans?

It depends on how coarse you make the setting - around 80 turns for fine, 60 turns for coarse. I would say about 2 minutes more or less depending on how fast you turn the handle!

I'm not sure why you would want to measure coffee this way. The best way would be measuring by mass. However, 8 tablespoons would probably take 20 seconds.

Depends on how fast you crank it but I would say the full load takes 3 to 5 minutes

Grinding for French Press coffee takes about a minute because the grind is coarse. The finer grinds require more grinding.

Good question. I just made coffee (Mmmmmm) and could not fit 30 grams in at one time. The most I could fit in the grinding chamber at once was 24 grams. But it grinds very quickly so if you have the beans measured out you can easily grind 30 gms in two batches in less than 5 minutes.

Hi Jessica~ I don't like my coffee too strong but not weak either. I use about 2 rounded/heaping tablespoons to the 8-cup French press and I let it steep for 2 minutes then press. For stronger you can just let it steep longer maybe 3 minutes. I had to experiment a little. I use Folger's 100% Columbian medium dark. I love French press coffee!

About 5 mins to grind coffee for 2 small cups.And yes, the grind level is adjustable.

Time depends entirely on the fineness of your grind. A coarse French Press grind can be done in 30 seconds, while a fine espresso grind will run you a couple minutes and a little effort.

It is really trial and error. I add less than 1 cup of beans and turn the timer to about 8. It will stop grinding when the beans are gone and if you need more time you simply add a few more seconds.

A few minutes. It takes about six minutes to grind enough coffee for 12 cups. I grind the coffee for the morning while I am watching the evening weather and I grind somewhere between standard drip and espresso grind, a bit finer than regular drip but a small bit coarser than full espresso. There is a caution that the manufacturer states to not grind fast. I grind about 100 rpm, a bit faster than a turn and a half a second. But the taste of the coffee that it grinds is notably better than with a blade grinder, chopper, or even the best electric burr grinder, in my opinion.

It would take a few minutes to grind the coffee. It's slow, not an issue for me, could be for you. The grind is adjustable and there is a wide range. It's a really neat very simple machine.

Depending on your preference, roast, and beans used, I'd say around 25 seconds. It does not have a grind timer, so you get to stand there with your finger on the button and let the noise, aroma, and anticipation carry you away!

I like a fine ground and it takes me less than 10 seconds to get it fine. The metal filter in my coffee maker allows some fines to pass but I don't mind. I guess that it would take somewhere between 5 and 10 seconds for a medium grind.

Not long. A nice feature is that you can pour a cup or two while the coffeemaker is still brewing if you are in a real hurry! I would say the time from adding water, starting machine for grinding and brewing is less than 10 minutes. Also, if you set it up the night before, it will be ready when you get to the kitchen!

The basic formula for french press coffee is 2 tablespoons of coarse grounds per 6 oz of water (6oz would be a small cup in my opinion). To grind 4 tablespoons it takes about 1 minute or so. For finer grounds such as espresso, it will take longer. If by "grind level" you mean the size of the grind then yes, it is easily adjustable from very coarse to very fine.

It depends on what type of roast you are using and the fineness of the grind. Generally it takes about 2 minutes for this to drain with a medium coarse grind so it works best for light roast coffees. You can also use it with dark roasts but those usually taste better with a longer steep around the 4 minute mark. When I make light roast coffee I use this and when I make med or dark roast I use a french press. I use this item at work every day and I love it. It's easy to clean too. But if you want something really quick a Keurig type machine is your best bet or an espresso machine.

I do 18g on a medium grind (7 clicks from tightest setting) and it doesn't take more than a minute. I can time it next time I use it.EDIT 9/18/14: I timed it and 18g took 60 seconds.

It depends on how strong you like your coffee. We make ours in a 12 cup coffee pot and I put 5 scoops of grounds in. It would take two grinding runs to produce that amount of coffee grounds, however its just a touch of a button and 30 seconds to do it so its relatively quick and pain free.

We prefer a not-too-fine grind with the Woodneck (vs, say for an AeroPress) to achieve a brew time of about 3-1/2 minutes. The Hario Coffee Mill Slim Grinder (http://www.amazon.com/Hario-Coffee-Mill-Slim-Grinder/dp/B001804CLY/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid;=1407346153&sr;=8-6&keywords;=hario). One nice thing with the manual grinder is it builds up anticipation and forearm strength ;)
