Appear to have had a senior moment as I found coffee beans in the cupboard. 😳 No grinder here so would a rolling pin hack it in order to please my cafetiere and filter machine?

Thanks.

Pestle and Mortar?

Pull the other one!

You’d probably make more mess than it’s worth. Just bin/donate them and get some ground.

pestle and mortar would be better I imagine and use a bag for the beans if you attempt to pound them into submission with the pin

A blender would work

Mortar and pestle or a well cleaned pepper grinder. 😀

If you can bash them apart then maybe a pestle and mortar, but doubt a rolling pin will get them fine enough.

Spice mill, might be able to get one from a larger supermarket or Argos, but in that case might as well just buy some ground and put the beans down to experience (or coat them in dark chocolate and eat them)

Or have a cup of tea instead 😉

Yeah but it might make me feel good using a rolling pin.

I’ve done it before with a pestle and mortar, takes ages though 🙂 Blade grinder only a tenner.

I’m a pleb, don’t have any middle-class culinary gizmos.

Could try using a blender but it won’t be as much fun as a rolling pin.

Cheers for the suggestions though.

It’s the stars telling you to buy a coffee grinder 😉

Eat nothing for a day. Then swallow them whole, one by one. Retrieve by whatever method you’re most comfortable with. Sell them as cinnamon girl poo beans for £500/lb.

If you google ‘Grinderless Brewed Coffee’ there are methods of brewing coffee with whole beans. Takes a while though. So you’ll have plenty of time to find other things in the house to smash up with a roiling pin

wrap them in a tea towel and bash them with a hammer

Any chocolate lurking at the back of that cupboard?

Honestly, how do these ruffians keep getting in.

Come on STW,

own them with Bombers!

But don’t put them in your shoes and then wee on them

There’s a fair chance they’ve gone stale and will taste like cardboard anyway depending on how long they’ve been languishing in the cupboard.
