Hi folks, I'm a bit new to the addiction club, but recently acquired the Bialetti to my addition of coffee machines. I am uncertain to what level of grind should I buy for the Bialetti? Filter or Espresso? And if I grind myself, I have an electric one, how long do I grind it for?

I think the length is due to OP using a blade grinder, but not enough information to be totally sure.

Ah yeah my bad! But you're totally right, blade grinder it is.

So a lot of it is going to depend on the grinder you have. If you know how long it takes to get a standard grind, and how long it takes to get an espresso grind, the moka pot grind is in between them.

Longer than standard grind, not as long as espresso grind.

Yeah I'm not at that level at all yet, but I'll definitely check it out asap.

Ah, good catch.
