[0002] Coffee plantations have been opened in all hot and humid areas of the world. Coffee has become a popular beverage, but it takes a lot of effort to brew a pot of delicious coffee. Coffee beans must be ground into fine powder, and it is best to use some kind of filter to keep the coffee grounds outside the cup. Although people in many places like to drink unfiltered coffee, before the invention of coffee grinders, humans used stone pestles and bowls to grind coffee beans. The best time to grind coffee beans is before cooking, because ground coffee is easy to oxidize and lose its fragrance. Especially if it is not properly stored, the coffee powder is easy to change its taste, and naturally it is impossible to brew a mellow coffee. A coffee bean grinder is a grinding tool that cuts and grinds coffee beans into coffee powder when the motor drives the mechanical cutter to rotate rapidly;

[0003] However, current coffee bean grinders are all single-channel designs, and can only store one type of coffee beans in their bean bins. Different types of coffee beans cannot be quickly switched for grinding and use. Often, when replacing coffee beans, the only way is to empty the bean bin or replace the bean bin. This results in inconvenient operation, time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in poor flexibility and ease of use of the coffee bean grinders. Utility Model Content
