Re: Which Grinder?
Im afraid the supermarket beans will be a waste. They will be stale and will grind differently to fresh beans--and no matter what you do the coffee will be sub-par.
The grind for each bean batch will be different, and will also vary due to the age of the beans, the humidity, and the temperature, (and the way you hold your tongue!), so there are no hard and fast answers. A little experimenting will soon have you in the right ballpark.
On my Macap the usual max-min range is only about 4 rotations of the winder, so I am rarely far enough out to have to discard a shot as undrinkable. And I have about 3 different coffees on the go at any one time!
