The Easiest Way To Grind Coffee Beans Without A Grinder

Although a coffee grinder is the best tool for uniformly and consistently grinding whole beans to achieve the perfect cup of coffee, you can also use a food processor for the job.
A food processor can handle
a larger quantity of beans at once than other options and create consistent, evenly sized grounds. Still, you should grind your beans in small batches.
Go about ¼ cup at a time, transferring the grounds into whatever container you plan to store them in before loading up the food processor and grinding your next batch.
That said, the heat generated by the machine’s blades can melt the bean's oils and burn delicate beans, turning them bitter. As a prevention, be sure to use short pulses or bursts.
