How long does it take to grind a single cup's worth of beans?

a minute or so. Depends on how fast you turn the crank and how fine you set the grinding mechanism

I timed it this morning using the stop watch on my phone. Grinding 60 beans, enough to make two cups of coffee in my Planetary Designs large french press mug (another excellent product) took 38 seconds. By the way, boiling the water in my Sunbeam Hotshot (another excellent product) took 1 minute and 23 seconds.

I have a keurig that I use for single cup brewing and it takes less time to grind the beans than it does for the keurig to heat up fully so I'd say about 45 seconds

There are a few variables coming into play with grind times for a cup of coffee. Grinding at the finest setting (creating an almost powder consistency) takes like two or three times longer than the courser settings. Some ppl like two or three times as much ground coffee per cup. Some ppl turn the grind handle faster than others, etc.If I have it set at finest setting and grind enough coffee to fill the little glass jar about 1/3 full and go at a steady pace - I'm guessing about 10 mins or so.

I use a two cup french press mug and grind the beans directly into the press. I've never times it, but I put the beans into the grinder, then put the water into my Sunbeam Hotshot. The grinding is done well before the water boils.

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

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!

It takes me one minute to grind enough for one shot of espresso ( +/- 7 grams of fine espresso grind)

Try pulsing your coffee beans at five-second intervals. It should take no more than 8-20 seconds depending on the quantity of beans you are grinding. For French press coffee, the grains should look coarse like potting soil. I use a one tablespoon using a measuring spoon rather than a generic spoon. At maximum capacity, the Bodum bistro blade grinder can grind up to six-tablespoons. I use one tablespoon of whole beans per one cup of water, but these brewing proportions are for manual drip coffee which requires finer-grains of coffee and faster and smoother flavor release time while coarse-grain granules require more time to brew and/or likely more coffee beans.

I've never timed it. It's fairly short, maybe 5 minutes. I believe it percs too quickly because there is evidence that the water is overloading the basket containing the coffee grounds. A significant quantity of grounds end up in the bottom of the pot and in your cup when the coffee is poured.

The time doesn't matter. If the grinder stops when there are still beans left, you can just turn the timer again to finish it. If there are no beans and it's still grinding, you can "gently force" the timer to zero.

I make a nice, big cup of coffe with mine. About 16 oz. I've never actually timed it but I would guess about 5 minutes all told, including the time it takes for the grounds to finish draining. Might take less if you don't gring your coffe as fine as I do.

I use a bit less than 1/2 cup freshly ground beans. I dilute 1:1 after 12 to 24 hours.

The amount of time you depress the button on top of the unit determines the coarseness or fineness of the beans used. I grind about ten (10) seconds to get a medium/fine grind. You get the picture?

Just guess--lol! If the beans finish grinding before the timer runs out, just turn the canister counterclockwise until it stops. If there are still beans left when the timer stops, turn the timer again. You'll get a feel after awhile for how long it takes to grind the amount of beans you usually use. Hope this helps!

I set the timer on #8, and if the beans are still in the basket I run it until the grinding noise stops. It really depends upon how many scoops of beans you grind for a pot.

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.

I usually cook 3 cups and it takes 35 to 40minutes. So I would guess 2 cups might take 30 to 35 minutes.

The amount of coffee is limited to 10grams, and the amount of water (in seconds) is programmable. The amount of time to cycle out the old puck and grind coffee for another cup s approximately 10 seconds. So, for a cup of coffee it takes about a minute. This is really more of a personal coffee maker....if you're looking to make 5 cups of coffee you'd have to refill the water reservoir several times. In my opinion....you should look for a higher capacity unit.

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.

I would say 2 minutes.We are very pleased with this Mr. Coffee single cup unit.Good buy We have tried some cheaper one, we got rid of them.

It really does depend on the size of the mug you choose and the intensity...5-8 minutes is my best guess...I usually brew a half carafe...
