Question:

Can you crush coffee beans with a hammer if you do not have a coffee grinder??


Answers:
Good luck with that...

If it floats your boat, go for it! But that'll take a while.

Absolutely?? . . . cowboy coffee, or better known as hobo coffee is made almost in that exact manner. They take whole coffee beans, wrap them in a handkerchief, and smash with a rock. You then dump the smashed beans into boiling water to produce your coffee. To get the chunks and grounds to go to the bottom, two methods were just, either A, a tiny bit of ice cold water, or B, a couple of pieces of eggshell have been known to pull the grounds or chunks to the bottom allowing you "assuming you pour very slowly" to pour yourself a cup of exquisite coffee.

Yeah, It'll take awhile and can be dangerous but why not. How do you think they did it in the olden days.

YoU aRe WeIrD!! Go AhEaD! but it would be easier to go to walmart and get and coffee grinder or starbucks! MmMmMmMmmmm!!
LoVe YoU 2! <3

To use a hammer, I would suggest putting the coffee beans in a freezer zipper bag (take the air out first before closing). Then either use your hammer or a rolling pin (for a broader area). You can crush until it is coarse or continue to crush to the consistency you would like.

yes but its messy!!!!! lol
