 How to Grind Coffee Beans in a Food Processor

Although a coffee grinder is best for grinding coffee, a food processor can be used if nothing else is available. The key to using a processor is to think small and grind no more than the amount for a single coffee maker. If your processor has a small tube-shaped hopper, it can get the job done a bit faster and cleaning easier.
