Method for grinding material to be ground having at least one coffee grinding mill in a coffee machine, the method comprising:
- determining an actual grind level of the grinding mill;
- determining a target grind level of the grinding mill based on a coffee product selected by a user,
- comprising:
- receiving a first user input;
- and determining the target grind level based on the received first user input, wherein the first user input is associated with the selection of a coffee product;
- automatically comparing the actual grind level with the target grind level;
- automatically outputting information to a user of the grinding mill based on the comparison of the actual grind level with the target grind level;
- receiving a second user input;
- and
- when the actual grind level matches the target grind level:
- grinding the material to be ground with the actual grind level;
- when the actual grind level does not match the target grind level:
- grinding of the material to be ground with the actual grind level, or
- adjusting the actual grind level to set the target grind level,
- wherein the grinding of the material to be ground with the actual grind level or
- adjusting the actual grind level is performed in response to the receiving the second user input.
Coffee machine having a grinding mill and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to carry out the method according to one of the preceding claims, in particular wherein the coffee machine has a preferably manually operable and/or mechanical adjustment device of the grind level and/or an optically readable display device, preferably a display and/or a controlled illuminable region.
