Very good with coffeeDoes a fine job with seeds but after 2 grinds the black plastic ring at the bottom of the grinder cup broke up.

Yes, it does a good job. I bought the grinder primarily for spices. I grind cumin and cardamon seeds regularly and always get the desired result.

I grind red pepper flakes, brown sugar, spices and salt in it to make a rub and it does a great job. Turns it all into a garlic powder consistancy which is what i want.

No, it doesn't grind that fine. It's great for everyday home use, but really not for very fine type grinds.

No...it does not grind consistently and we've stopped using it. Not recommended.

I found that if you don't overload the grinder it does grind evenly. Once you put too much product in it, it has a hard time grinding every little bit of it to the same grind.

Yes, and nicely. I have used it to grind about 50lbs of wheat berries and 25lbs of brown rice, but its main job in our house is to produce a 1gal of juice each week. Hope this has helped. Matthew

I have, it did a pretty good job, it was "mostly" seedless. I didn't use the finest screen that came with it though so I would imagine that if I would have that it would have gotten out most if not all of the seeds.

I used it to spread powdered lime - I set it on the lightest setting and made several rounds to ensure even coverage. principle should be the same for small seeds. Hopefully other more experienced gardeners/farmers can give a more precise answer.

Yes I've used mine for several years and grind almost solely sprouted wheat. Never had an issue.

If the soil is not too hard it deals with grass and weeds well. I use mine often.

For me, it picks up very fine dirt, leaves, those darn spinner seeds but it won't pick up any pebbles. If they are very tiny it gets a few but not anything even close to the size of a pea. But those don't bother me as long as all the dirt around them goes away.

Yes, it is an excellent flax seed grinder! That's all I do with my grinder.

I haven't tried grinding seeds other than black pepper. You'd probably have to clean the fibers out a bit more often, but the blades should work fine.

No. It's small and doesn't generate alot of heat. Just gentle heat to get seeds started.

I think it might be ok. I used it to grind cardamom seeds and it was great. The grind wheel is adjustable so you should be ok. I don't think it would work for coffee beans or anything of that size

Absolutely! This grinder ROCKS! I have ground flax with it beautifully. I haven't ground sunflower seeds yet (great idea) but I'm confident the grinder would have no problems. Two passes through the grinder is usually what i do. Three if my grain is larger and / or harder.

The slots are narrow so it works best for shorter smaller plants. Greens and lettuces did great. I don't think it's big enough for tomatoes or green beans.

I'm answering an old question, but yes, it can grind seeds. I made tahini with it the other day -- just sesame seeds and olive oil. It worked very well.
