MPE Introduces Plurimodal Grinding
October 2005 (Chicago, IL) Modern Process Equipment Corporation (MPE) has developed an entirely new coffee grinder that allows users to control not only the average grind size, but also to introduce a percentage of smaller particles, or "fines", into the grinding process to improve coffee extraction characteristics. This innovative technology is Plurimodal Grinding, also known as Bi-Modal Grinding, and it has opened the doors to never before possible grind profiles. Specifically, for pod producers, Plurimodal Grinding allows for an increase in the extraction time, packing density and amount of froth created during extraction without ruining the optimal flavor profile. For all coffee producers, Plurimodal Grinding keeps coffee temperatures low and increases grind consistency, achieving a better end product with new, unique coffee characteristics.
