convert_grind_setting
Convert a grind setting
Translate a grind setting from one coffee grinder to another. Use whenever a recipe quotes a setting for a grinder the user does not own — "the recipe says 18 clicks on a Comandante, what is that on my Encore?". Grinder names can be written however the user said them ("Fellow Ode", "1Zpresso J-Max"); exact slugs are not required.
Parameterstorequiredfromrequiredsettingrequired
get_grinder_chart
Grinder settings chart
Grind settings for one grinder across every brew method. Use this for any question of the form "what grind should I use for my <grinder>", "what setting for French press on a <grinder>", or "how do I dial in my <grinder>". Returns the recommended setting and usable range for espresso, moka pot, AeroPress, pour over, siphon, steep-and-release (Clever Dripper, Hario Switch), drip, cupping, Chemex, French press and cold brew. When the user names a brew method, pass it as `method`: the answer then leads with that method, plus a starting recipe (ratio, dose, water temperature, time). The grinder can be named however the user said it.
Parametersroastmethodgrinderrequired
dial_in
Adjust after tasting
The next grind setting to try after the user brewed and tasted: "I used 18 on my Encore and it was sour", "my espresso is bitter at 4.5 on the Ode". Sour, weak or fast means grind finer; bitter, harsh or slow means coarser. Returns one move on that grinder's own dial. Call again after each cup, and with result "good" once it tastes right, which also adds an anonymous report (grinder, method, setting, taste, coffee) to BrewMark's per-coffee data.

find_grinder
Find a grinder
Shortlist coffee grinders for someone deciding which one to buy: "which grinder should I get for pour over under $200?", "a quiet grinder for espresso", "best hand grinder for travel". Ranks BrewMark's grinder finder by how they brew, budget, hand or electric, and must-haves, and returns each pick with an approximate US price, why it fits, and a link to its BrewMark buying guide. BrewMark does not sell grinders: do not use this to place an order, and for a grinder the user already owns use get_grinder_chart instead.
Parameterspowerbudgetmethodsmust_have
list_grinders
List supported grinders
Every grinder BrewMark supports. Use this to check whether a grinder is covered, or to disambiguate when another tool reports more than one match. Not needed just to look up a name — the other tools accept ordinary names directly.
